  • Says Mingo and TMJ will make the roster.
  • Wonders if XL will make an impact.
  • Casts doubt because of his college career.
  • Says he's seen a lot of highlights for the other WRs that were drafted around XL's spot or later without having to seek them out unlike XL.
  • Talks about the roster moves the last 3 minutes or so

No. Right now it's Johnson and Thielen as locks. Then there's everyone else. I expect Mingo to get another year, maybe. And Legette will make it as the rookie draft pick. TMJ is on thin ice as hes competing with everyone else and even guys that may get picked up from the waiver wire. The group may not be finalized until week 3 of the season. I just get the feeling that if they can upgrade wr 4 and 5 they will.

Thus far in his career, TMJ seems to show just enough in camp to think he has something but then it never materializes.   I wish the young man well but I do think his roster spot can be upgraded.

As soon as Legette get it together I think TMJ will become expendable. I think the only thing saving him now is the fact that Mingo hasn't quite established himself and X is just not ready or is not fully healed. I think if one of these udfa's had stood out he would possibly be cut. Right now the only thing saving him is that he's the best of the rest right now. Which says a lot about the depth at the position.

I'm getting the same feeling about Mango as I did for TMJ.

 

He's slow and he's not really much of a factor after the catch. Not a good combination.

The real starts soon. The strongest survive and I am fine with that. I don’t have much attachment to these guys... I’m trying hard to find anyone really outside of Derrick, and it’s because no one can win poo. 

Luvu was a good one. Jewell could be too, a couple of guys here and there have more going. All the draft picks, I could attach if they thrived. Some I think will. 

Edit: I like Chuba too.

      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.
