So...if Carolina finishes last again next season...

Oy :(

Speculation overload on this topic. If we stink again next year, there could be a hundred reasons why. What you did next would be based on those reasons.

Draft weekend is usually the time when everyone's optimism is through the roof. Why on earth is so much of this board focused on negative scenarios or getting pissy over what someone said about us? :confused:

BPA available other than Quarterback but I guarantee we don't finish last......oh and people would be dying to trade up to get Luck

i dont know about the finish last statement because this schedule is very tough. As for people dying to trade up, i am sure they will, BUT i dont think the offers will be great because they know the panthers have Cam Newton and wont take them seriously when it comes to drafting Luck

People need to forget about Luck.

With the Carolina OL, RB and D......you have to work very hard to be the worst team in the NFL. It was a perfect storm of Richardosn/Fox/Clausen last year. Storm is over. Rivera will have a competitive team. 6-7 wins imo if he has a healthy team.

This is hard one to talk about, if only because there are a seemingly infinite number of variables. Not the least of which is my gut feeling that having the worst record in the league again seems unlikely.

But, if lightning strikes and there's even the slightest bit of confidence in either Newton or Pickles, my guess is that they trade down.

They won't pick Luck. They will give Cam a few years. Also don't forget that we have Clausen and he will be here for a while as well.

We have enough talent at QB. At this point we just have to wait and see what develops.

But if we are a top 5 pick next year. I say we take a tackle or a CB.

    • 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.
