How can you not get excited about what Morgan has done in the off-season?  He's addressed almost every position of need with good players.  He's added depth to some critical positions and studs in positions we were extremely weak on.  

I realize it is all on paper right now but I think our defense might be better than last year's team and the offense will be greatly improved as well.  

 

Because we might be headed down a new road, but we might also be in the same old car.

I'm hopeful, but I've been disappointed too many times in too many years running.

Enjoy the moment, though, and hope the guy plays up to the contract.

I just hope Bryce can belly up to the bar. You must admit that the jury is still out on that.

It's hard to remain optimistic based on the last 5 years.  Too many coaches and too many QBs. 

We let Burns go to NYG and freed up 24 million.  With that 24 Million we addressed three positions on the defense.  Jewell, Robinson and Clowney for basically the same price.   So we gave up Burns, swapped 5ths and got pick 39 and 166 and Jewell, Robinson and Clowney.  That IMO makes the Burns deal pretty damn good.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      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.

      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.
