I can’t believe the Eagles paid Hurts. The guy cannot throw the ball downfield and has two legit WR’s in Brown and Smith

They could’ve just drafted someone like Milroe and not missed a beat 

Lol. Milroe is literally the poorest man's version of Hurts. If you don't like Hurts you definitely won't like Milroe.

I’m saying they could plug in Milroe for a fraction of the cost and things wouldn’t really be any different

No, they would be substantially worse. That's not a 1:1. 

I wouldn't have wanted to pay Hurts either but I also wouldn't have wanted to pay Lawrence or Goff or Dak or most of these recent contract guys. Nor would I want to be paying Purdy. 

At this point, that is just sort of the price of a starting QB anymore.

QB contracts are getting so crazy that honestly I'm of the opinion that if he's not legit MVP caliber you're better off letting him walk and drafting one. When you pay decent starters huge money you have to make the type of roster decisions that you can't afford to make unless it's for an MVP caliber player.

      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)

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      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.
