Dan Morgan on Jadeveon Clowney: “we’re still working through the roster”


Recommended Posts

Yea I dont think we will be keeping DJ Johnson, Pat Jones, DJ Wonnum, Jadeveon Clowney, Amare Barno, Nick Scourton, and Princely Umanmeilen on the same final 53 man roster. 

Im pretty sure we might have some other dudes at edge as well that im not recalling. 

All I will say is Wonnum was solid when he was healthy. Otherwise, that is a room full of JAGs not counting our two drafted guys. One of them could push to start immediately if theyre good enough. 

We had such a poo defense they should let the best man win in training camp for the starting OLB positions.

Who else was out there last year besides the above 4 on the roster? Felt like one of those years where I only knew half the D players on the field lol.

Trust me man, we had some random ass dudes playing on defense near the end of the year.

I would hesitate putting rookies ahead of Clowney in April.

Definitely we want to get these guys into camp and go from there. Clowney is 32 though. Just have to weigh options.

There is a part of me that wants to hang on to Clowney. Providing a solid veteran presence might help the young guys if we turn out to be a decent team.  Or if he plays decent this year, but we are not in playoff contention, then we can trade him to a contender for a draft pick or two when the trading deadline approaches.  

That being said, if we need the cap space, so be it.

If morgan can get anything for him then do it but out right cutting him would be a bit weird

    • 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.
