Honestly I'm not that impressed with the Panthers draft. Mine would have gone something like this.

1.1 (#1 overall) Marcell Dareus, DT

3.1 (#65 overall) Trade for future 2nd. If I'm stuck with it I'd probably take Hankerson or Reid.

3.33 (#97 overall) Luke Stocker, TE

4.1 (#98 overall) Christian Ballard, DL

5.1 (#132 overall) Marcus Cannon, OG

6.1 (#166 overall) Quan Sturdivant, LB

6.38 (#203 overall) Greg Romeus, DE

7.41 (#244 overall) Lee Ziemba, OT :D

UDFAs

DeAndre McDaniel, S

Jeron Johnson, S

Derrick Locke, RB

Noel Devine, RB

Ian Williams, DT

Kendric Burney, CB

So you're up, who would you have chosen?

I like that we finally had the balls to step out on a limb and draft an athlete/personality like Newton. Had it been up to me however I would have either strongly considered taking Peterson first overall and probably ended up pulling the trigger on him instead of Newton or I would have traded down to some where around 10-15 to pick up a much needed 2nd rounder, and would have probably ended up taking Nick Fairley or Phil Taylor with my pick in the first.

Our Draft was okay I guess... I really had the fact that we missed out on some really good talent left in the 2nd round because we didnt have that 33rd overall pick.... getting Marvin Austin would have really made me a happy Panther Fan.... the last time we picked up a tar heel he turned out to be a really awesome player.

    • 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.
