We do not need to be mortgaging our future again...

another factor to remember is that we have potentially 4 QB's that 1 or 2 of which might clear waivers and if the run on qb's last night shows anything they could be ammunition to get back in next year.

I am not a huge fan of first rounders anyway. So this is kind of steering my side of the debate as well.

I mean if Austin was worth a 1st rounder he would be off the board anyways and this debate would be null.

this is not always true... there was SO MUCH talent on DL this year, there are players being picked in the 2nd and 3rd that likely woulda gone 1st in most other years...

but I wouldn't want to trade our first next year for him.

I bet they tried to trade our 2nd next year and 3rd this year though to get back up.

Unless they have done similar research on him and invited him down several times like Cam I doubt this is even a possibility anyway.

Looking at how high our next years 1st could possibly be and the fact that we have two FA periods between now and then makes me scared as hell to think we get in a spot nobody wants next year like this year.

Give it up now and get a beast DT that can turn our ends and LB's loose..where our strength are.

This is all fun to speculate about..good thread, good convo guys...gotta check out for now cheers

    • 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.
