everyone keeps saying trade back but it takes two to tango and from what I gather the only guy that would warrant someone potentially to move up would be tet.  So we are a bit limited there

It's an easy draft for a team with a need to take a swing. It's certainly not give  but it also only ties one team to make it happen.

I don't want BC really. Dude has had tons of chances and I hope we aren't the team to overpay. We need depth and that's why I hope it's a trade back. RT and C are not strong spots long term and could actually be weaknesses faster.

I think I would keep Ickey at LT and see if anyone trades up if a LT is there at our pick. People here didn't want to trade back very far but so far it but if it gave is more ammo in the 2nd and early 3rd I would be thrilled. So far but still.

I do want to keep him because he is cheap and he is a valuable backup at multiple spots.

Taking away a valuable backup is just another big hole to fill.

Exactly.  If other teams see him the same way - valuable backup - we should be able to keep him.  If another team sees him as a starter, then we should let him go.

I don't  like his availability. It's  the same as Corbett for me. I would take a swing g elsewhere personally even if he does have the versatility

I do not know circumstances, but I am pretty sure that BC did not cut it at LG and he sucked at center when Cade took over and played well.  I have always thought his role would be as a swing OT.  His arms are short, but he really has not spent time at T, his college position.  So I am not sure how valuable he is if he has not played well at G or C.

I think he will draw some but Panther fans MASSIVELY overrate him. He is a valuable backup and that's really it.

I think he was an older rookie, which means he is pushing 30 right now.  Probably a valuable backup, but if you need for a long stretch, bryce is in trouble.

@MHS831 great post much appreciated.  Has there been any news on Brooks lately?  Wondering if there is any chance we could see him next season 

No, and I don't talk to this person frequently.  I have the same curiosity--let me see what s/he knows--but it could be a while.  I feel this person does not like people asking for insider info--but that could be me.  S/he has never said a word about it.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
