If the panthers signed a FA one trick pony edge rusher who admitted to dogging all of last season quitting on his team, can’t play the run for s*** and whose potential has yet to materialize in 4 years for 25 million a year… the huddle would completely melt down and other teams would clown us. 

That would actually be a win of sorts. We offered 5 years and $27 mil, supposedly.

Burns is not a dawg. Hill I am willing to die on. Now let's see if Morgan was for real about how he wanted to build this team.

I said before that this is pretty much the Dan Morgan is legit test.

What he does with burns says a lot about what to expect going forward.

I'm just hoping that the teppers didn't make burns untouchable.

It probably won't matter in a couple of years except to a few hard core fanatics here.  If he gets traded or cut and plays well for another team, the hard core will claim its another DJ Moore, CMC situation and blame Morgan.  If we sign him for 30 a year, a different group of hard core fans will complain about that.

In the end though, Morgan will likely be judged on wins and what he does at QB if Young doesn't work out.

I just don't care if Burns is on the team or not.  In fact I associate him with losing.  I say take that money and let us build our offense up.  Let's become monsters on the offensive line and bring in some weapons.  I think it's easier to fix a defense then an offense now.  In fact the best defense is a good offense.  If we can control the ball and chew clock by sustaining drives it would be the best thing we could do for our defense with or without Burns.

I agree with all except want to pump the brakes on Burns. Am I correct that he wants 30 million and turned down 27 million? If so is he truly worth that much? If we were talking the top guy in the league or next to top guy in the league I understand but is Burns truly worth what he is wanting?

30 million no he isn't since he didn't play at full speed last year. Give him a 2 or 3 year with an option to talk after year two. Brown is coming up next year is he not.

Straight up let them go.. unless we can get them to sign on a good price.. Allowing us to  add to our team additional players who will help turn things around.
They are not what  a “franchise” player is. I always have assumed a franchise player is a guy who can by them-self make play after play that effects the game..

Luvu is close , Brown is as well, but Burns, He is not the guy that can just take the game into his hands and effect the out come of a game.

      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)

      By WhoKnows · Posted

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

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      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.
