What positions do we to fill in FA market

Assuming we will have one what postions are critical for us to fill in the FA market?

I know our first prioity will be to sign CJ,TD and others.

On defense I feel we need to sign a cb given marshall wants out.

On offense we need a competent and healthy tackle and wr.I am surprised that Shocky who is injured most of the time is our answer at TE.Do we need a vet qb?If Moore is gone I think absolutly.

I would guess DT (veteran--I know we drafted 2, but we had none and need 4), CB, and maybe a veteran QB. I think Cam will start early, so maybe a vet QB will not be better than Clausen in year 2 as a backup. Moore will be the vet if we bring one in, IMO.

I think we re-sign Rosario and go with Barnidge, Shockey, and Dante. I think they will wait to address TE in the draft next year, unless we get a steal in free agency.

FA I'd like to see in a panthers uniform. Probably won't happen because of money.

CB- Nnamdi Asomugah

DT- Cullen Jenkins

WR- Sidney Rice

QB- Alex Smith (yes I think he would be a great vet to add in my opinion. A change of scenery would do him well. He's still young too.)

Those players would be my 'wish' list. Players that would probably get us back to our winning ways.

The next list would be of players that I wouldn't mind getting either. Players that would improve our team but not as much as the others. 2nd tier guys I guess..

CB- Jonathan Joseph

DT- B. Cofield

QB- B. Volek (only for the Chudzinski ties, I realize he's a bit old.)

WR- Mike Sims-Walker (seriously under rated)

This group would help for sure. Just not as much as a huge impact as I believe the top tier guys imo.

Then there's these guys who are also serviceable.

CB- Brent Grimes (I think he would be a great pick up, steal away the competitions talent.)

DT- Brandon Mebane ( I realize he's not a dominating force but he's serviceable, young, and has played before)

QB- Marc Bulger(Yeah..)

WR- Malcom Floyd ( 6'5" possession wide out. We already have a pair of 6'3" WR, one of them is a burner the other is a possession type like Floyd. I strongly believe Floyd would embrace the role of #1.)

Then there's the others that I think would not only help bit under other teams in our division if we acquire their services.

RG- Harvey Dahl or Carl Nicks (either one one of them would solidify our line, make it a wall so whoever is throwing the football can have all day to throw. Also this would so screw up the saints or falcons o line. Thus meaning their QBs will have less time to throw, affecting THEIR passing game and fortifying ours)

Finally, I want us to try and get a WR, CB and vet QB at LEAST. I think we will be fine at DT. A RG from the opposing competition would be another move that I would love if Rivera and Hurney get the green light from JR to do so.

Starting WR( If Smith leaves ) , Starting CB (If Marshall Leaves ) , , Starting DE (If CJohnson Leaves) , Starting DT ( need a starting vet for the pups) , Starting RG , Starting OLB (If TDavis & JAnderson Leaves ) and Back Up RB ( If Dwiil Leaves)...

Thinking that Marshall is leaving and 50 50 that smity is too , If we resign all other key free agents it goes like this

Smith Stays

#1 Starting CB

#2 Starting DT

#3 Starting OG

and if Smith leaves WR is our #1 need

Lets see who we sign of our core players. That will tell us who we need to get in free agency. Plus depending on the new CBA, we will know who is eligible to be free agents and who is not. Right now you can easily pull out all kind of names who may or may not reach free agency.

    • 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.
