Boy am I glad we don't have Jacksonville's front office...

Not only do you give up almost your entire draft for one of the biggest busts of all times a couple of years ago (Harvey) but now you take a 2nd round player when the best defensive lineman, a highly ranked QB, and all sorts of other gems are sitting there on the board... and you don't have a second rounder...

And they didn't draft hometown hero The Golden Calf of Bristol!

I would've thought about drafting him just to save the poor franchise. I fell bad for them because they came in with us... Almost meet them in the Superbowl early in the teams history...

This is not going to get their fans excited, and bring them to the game... Well Great draft for the city of LA... Jax is getting closer to moving IMO.

i head they tried but they couldn't find a trading partner. still sucks to be them.

i like alualu a whole lot but in the 2nd round. at #10? lol.

who knows? maybe he'll be worth it. i just think it was a panic pick.

i wonder if the LA jaguars FO will be smarter.

Rofl.

btw....denver might be fighting them for dumb moves. mckid is going to be getting canned before too long.

If they end up being contenders he will be a hero, but as it stands right now he has literally driven that team into the ground.

They can try and sell that poo to the city of Jacksonville if they want... The truth is if they wanted to move up they could've. Everyone else moved up yesterday... They just didn't want to part ways with what was needed to do it.

It really does suck because the jags have been pretty consistent, They are just unfortunate to be stuck with Indy in their division.

So when the team moves to LA, will we have changes to some of the divisions?? Maybe the Stl Rams to the AFC North, and LA to the NFC West???

Denvers trade for The Golden Calf of Bristol was worse than this. 2nd 3rd and 4th round pick to move up how many spots? lol

The trade itself really was not that bad.....

To move up 18 spots from (43) to (25) And they only gave up a third round pick

They switched spots in the forth round with the (119) and (114) pick, so they just moved back 5 spots.

"This is not a popularity contest,'' Smith told Peter King of SI.com. "I don't give a damn about perception. I care about picking the right player for our team. My attitude is, 'You can outsmart people some of the time, but you can outwork them all of the time.' If you can't trust your ability to judge players after all the work you put in on them, you shouldn't be in this business.''

      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)

      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

      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.
