Panthers take Tony Pike

No question that he's the best available. Probably was with our last two picks as well. Can't hate the pick. Clausen or Pike will pan out, the other will get traded for better value than where they were drafted.

Bank on it.

yeah. We're definitely trying to get talent that can become great trade values imo. We're making relatively smart moves and I really don't mind this draft. LaFell, Edwards, & Gettis all have a ton of potential with LaFell capable of becoming a solid starter for us. And now this: Moore/Clausen/Pike three different QBs that will sure bring the best out in each other by simply being on the team. Please remain calm people.

Pike was pretty much an insurance pick. We finally have 3 legit QB's to choose from. One will be a back-up, the other a starter, and the last of the three will be traded for a pick in the years to come and we will get that pick back. Panthers are definitely addressing the QB and WR spots. Have to like that plus Eric Norwood is a beast!

Actually its a damn good value pick. Now we have a really really nice qb competetion at the least and at the most, matt moore will be traded for a skill player

Well with QB how many reps can you really spread around with what, 4 or 5 QB's that are ALL young? Moore, Pike, Clausen, Edwards (though he's supposed to be WR obviously) and possibly whats his name...cantwell?

    • 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.
