Would you draft a pass rusher or draft one?

We already have 2 young pass rushers who could be promising, no need to add a 3rd to the mix when we won't be getting a stud in the Top 5.

We need to overspend and get the best pass rusher we can in FA, someone who can step in from week 1 and be a true impact maker and a leader for the young guys to learn from.

They should have kept Burns.
Well…they should taken two firsts….but once they told the Rams “no”, they should have resigned him. Can you imagine how much better this team would be with Burns, CMC, and DJ Moore right now? Home picked talent traded away for nothing in return. 

Scott Fitterer was the worst GM in the history of the NFL and as a grown man if I saw him in an airport or something I would go up to him and tell him what an idiot he is for not trading Brian Burns for TWO FIRST ROUND PICKS AND A SECOND ROUND PICK. So glad that moron isn’t working for the Panthers anymore. Single handedly lead us into the gutter.

I’m of the opinion that Bryce needs an elite defense behind him. 
 

Idk what the FA OT market looks like but that will have an influence on how we approach defense.
Prior to Ickey’s injury, I’d argue our entire offseason focus should have been defense. 

Sign FA Matt Milano for instant legitimacy at ILB.

I, honestly, seriously, would try to trade all of the first round picks for Myles Garrett and Vita Vea. With DB, it’s the best d-line in football and now defenses can’t even entertain the idea of blocking our OLBs.

    • So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.   
    • My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
