Oregon was completely exposed as a fraud in the playoff.  Do better 

DT Derrick Harmon has a top-20 grade.

DE Jordan Busch has a top-50 grade.

LB Jeffrey Baasa has a top-100 grade.

DT Jamaree Caldwell has a top-125 grade.

CB Jabbar Muhammad is projected to be a UDFA target.

 

Saying they were exposed as a fraud in the playoffs is like saying that Cam got exposed in SB50. It just doesn't make any sense... but that also does not seem to be the intention of the thread so I guess I can understand the buffoonery.

Facts are that Jeanty didn't just run up on a decent defense at the end of the season. He put up nearly 200yds on a good one at the beginning of the season.

What was that good defense? Because Oregon was 64th in the country in YPC allowed and their 38th in rushing yards allowed likely would've been lower had teams not been playing from behind for most of the year. The reality is that they were a middle of the pack run D. C'mon man, those PAC-12 teams have jever won on defense. You know this. You don't have to create a false narrative to prop up your favorite very good draft prospect.

A huge chunk of the early guys are overrated and just filling the void of top talent in this draft.

Doesn't make them bad players but comparing them to other drafts is going to look like bad value.

Also don't draft a RB in the 1st still....especially when this draft is loaded with RB talent later.

My mind wants to say Jeanty is overrated because he doesn't look like an imposing player.  However, you can't crap on what he's accomplished this past season.  Almost breaking Barry Sanders all-time record.  That speaks for itself.

The experts seem to love him. Personally, I haven't heard one GM, coach or national talking head say he's overrated. Those in the know sing his praises. I haven't researched him because I don't see the Panthers drafting him.

We'll know who RB1 is in a few years.

I just find it funny how State fans come running to talk poo about how UNC fans always do something any time anything UNC is mentioned. Oddly, I don't recall any UNC fans shitting on Icky as a prospect because of where he went to school or mentioning his college team when he's looking like a turnstile in pass pro. The inferiority complex is just annoying.

Are any Carolina fans talking crap about any State prospects this year? I wouldn't mind at all to draft Belton in the mid-rounds. I don't give a poo where a guy went to school. If he went to UNC, great. But that's just icing on the cake.

Omarion Hampton is a very good running back prospect, but Ashton Jeanty completely breaks the scale compared to the rest of the class. It is hard, as someone with no dog in this fight, to believe that all the Carolina fans are simply being perfectly objective and reasonable when they try to equate Hampton to the dude who just had an all-time great season.

Everyone on earth is wrong but the Tarheel fans.

I'm a heels fan too but yeah I think shockers off his rocker with this one.....

 

Jeaty reminds me so much of Ladainian Tomlinson it's not funny, size weight speed and the way he runs.

I haven't researched him at all, but I will say that 5'9" and 215 sounds like a load. I don't get why you'd say, "He will get hurt consistently at that size." In fact the dude everyone wants us to get is 5'10" and 219, with a decidedly more physical running style I might add, but I'd say that the guys may be shorter, but they aren't slight.

Most starting backs are now under that weight if we are being real...

 

That's the exact same size as Deanglo Williams who himself was a poor man's Ladainian Tomlinson who was also that exact size.

A legend would be nice…those are opponents strength?

If so, forget that angle…Hampton has better size 

Happy Cracking Up GIF

You're moving the goal posts here. He provided them.

I like Hampton, but put him at Boise State. do you think he has 2,600 yards?

Well you have to remember you are talking to someone who was once the most outspoken defender of Teddy Bridgewater. He's gonna do what he's gonna do to carry water for his guy. He's certainly committed to his cause.

      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.

      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.
