I guess it's just not what you want to hear when you trade back up after trading down. Not for an RB. Teams just don't have to draft this position in the early rounds like that anymore.

But hey I'm happy to let him prove to me he was worthy of the pick.

Yep, it's fair to evaluate it for sure. Let's hope he's the guy. I love the pick, fingers crossed.

I just don't get this team. I honestly believe fans are better at picking than the team. Banging the drum for Frazier, we pass. And you just know center is going to be a problem this year and the team will make excuses. 

Same with banging the drum for Creed Humphry a few years ago, and Trey Smith in the 6th round and we took a freaking longsnapper

You go get your guy, period! I don't give a poo if he's an RB. Damnit the Lions drafted Gibbs in the first. We just got arguably the best back in the draft at 47. Man, I just don't understand what the fug some of you are listening to. You're believing too much in media hype. "Oh it's devalued blah blah blah." RBs are one of the most important positions on the team...and we got a good one! Dallas was going to draft him.

Has anyone said what we have up to move back up? 

both 5th round picks this year to swap 2nds. Win trade, if you combine the first trade from earlier, we pretty much picked up a 2nd rounder next year to just drop back 7 spots

      So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.

      My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
