I don’t mind the pick just don’t like trading up. It’s the third year in a row Dan has done that and each time seems unnecessary 

just a late round pick swap, one thing Dan Morgan doesn't do on draft day is trade future picks

Marty hurney would trade future 1st's and 2nd's like free candy

I’m not that thrilled TBH but I feel like you can’t go wrong focusing on the trenches. Hopefully he’s a big contributor. 

I had my heart set on one of the ILBs. I don’t usually invest like that. So it is disappointing but better this than a few other options. For me.

Love the pic.

I was surprised after we cut Robinson how little focus there seemed to be for a replacement. NT is a very important position as the run stuffer in a 3-4 D.

As for the specific player, top NTs tend to be 320-350 lbs, so might need to gain just a few pounds, but not worried about vert.

He was the 2-3 best rated NT in this draft and most had him going somewhere between 30-50.

Want to moan about the trade? Minor give up. Obviously they had intel that led them to think someone else was going to pick him.

Yeah replacing A’Shawn was starting to worry me, I didn’t know how it was gonna get done.  This is a decent attempt.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
