Gotta blame JR

let's face it, JR really didn't make Carolina that attractive for a rookie on the fence.

No coach. Admitting you aren't gonna sign any of your players until a CBA is reached when guys have gotten deals left and right all year. Carolina looks like a big unstable mess right now. Carolina has taken a huge PR hit....even if not true about being cheap and even flat out not caring recently.

Can you blame a kid for not wanting to walk into the great unknown that is Carolina. I mean if were on the fence to begin with.....there was nothing do push him this way.

well i am sure Luck has atleast been thinking about the team that could draft him. JR acting like he didnt even know who Harbough was during the presser probably didnt appeal to well to anyone at Stanford, including Luck.

add to that the fact we have only publicly been interviewing DC's probably didnt excite Luck too much about the direction of the franchise. who could blame him?

Gotta at least agree that Panthers have a huge PR problem and wouldn't exactly excite a player to come out early. No known coach, no free agents and every NFL pundit on national tv talking about how cheap Jerry is and the NFL CBA is more important than the panthers.

      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.
