I hate to pop the bubble, Luck isn't the answer

We need to listen to all offers for the #1. If Harbaugh goes to Denver they will try like hell to get the #1 from us. I bend them over then trade the pick to them.

Then Trade down again. This is how NE became the model Franchise it is. There are damn good QB's in this draft to build around other than Luck.

Andy Dalton in the 2nd?

you're delusional. Seriously. Sorry to be rude but New England doesn't just stockpile picks for the hell of it. If they don't need the picks available they'll trade, sure, but you know why that is?

They have the two most important pieces of the puzzle: Quarterback and coach.

A franchise quarterback is key to success, and just because you can pick up some QB during the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th, doesn't mean they will do well... see Clausen.

I might have to quit posting on here because this could get really out of hand.

There are a lot of people who read Luck's scouting reports expecting him to be jesus now they are going to use the orange bowl as their guide.

Discussion based on that and only that will never go anywhere. Speculative gibberish gets tiring.

Trading the #1 should be for a King's ransom. If we just schooch down for a ham sandwich that would be the only real fault of the FO.

We better rob that team and make them just as poor with luck as we are without him.

    • 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.
