San Diego just let go of one of the top 10 NT/DT in the league...idiots.

I'm guessing that the $6M tag was a little too much for em, considering age and 1 game played last year. I hope he can come back with a smaller number, but if not, then it better be Dan Williams/Terrence Cody at 28.

id still draft a RB with the 28th pick if I were the chargers owner. then a NT in the 2nd

Not surprised at the tender offer, but the 1st and 3rd little surprising, since it appeared he was going to walk away. Still perhaps the FO look at the roster and realized they didn't have another RB. Not to mention the value Sproles has as a screen-pass or quick hitter for Phillip Rivers.

I'm thinking the other way, go later for an RB, barring Spiller sitting there @ 28. I could see them going Hardesty/Dixon/Blount later in the draft and having them behind Sproles and an FA pickup (Chet Taylor?)

M. Hardesty in San Diego is a great fit.

Yeah, I think that's what they'll do, barring a surprise drop on a prime O'lineman.

I am surprised at the highest tender, but not getting tendered.

J Wall is 34, and coming off of a season ending injury, this is not a total shock. Don't be shocked if he is re signed at a lower rate.

Also don't be shocked if Jackson, Merriman, Sproles, or Floyd is traded, but not for the tendered amount.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
