Not a fan of any other team.  Just dont like drafting big possession wrs and trading up in the 2nd for rbs.  Especially an injured one even though I like him.

Technically we traded down to get him. 

 

Doesn't fit the narrative though, does it?

Where are these Debbie Downers coming from?  Are they Cicadas?  You get the best RB in the draft vs. the 10th best CB. I wanted the LB.  However, a RB that can catch better that Chuba, block better than Chuba, and run better than Chuba--behind our new guards---I see it.

 

Yeppp-- not to mention the roads Hunt carved for Mostert & Achane last year.  Brooks should be licking his chops.

Well no excuses for Bryce not to succeed this year now. The FA OL additions and now 1st round WR and top RB… plus a “legit” young offensive minded HC. Now or never kid, I’m certainly pulling for him and us to succeed but I still am skeptical (as someone who’s usually very positive, Tepper has done this to me)

Basically, we were going to take the RB this round.  We trade back, get a second rounder in 2025 and a fifth.  We trade up from 52 to 46 for two fifths. 

In other words, we added a sorely needed second rounder in 2025 for a fifth rounder in 2024.  We dropped a total of 7 spots. 

So once again we lazer focused on one guy and didn't react to how the Draft fell. Got it.

    • 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.
    • 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.
