No way is RG more of a need than CB

Yeah, I think it is....shore up the lines first. We need a DT and now, a RG. If we can get a servicable RG and a good 3-technique DT....our CBs won't seem so bad. They will have less exposure to make them seem as vulnerable. Address the glaring hole on the each line and then think about going after a CB.

Ziemba doesn't have the bulk to handle the OG position. He's more of an asset on the outside and IIRC Rivera said he would remain at the OT spot.

We'll need him there in case Otah goes down again.

OR in case Otah isn't ready to start the season. I guess we'll know by how much he plays on Thursday.

Leonard Davis or Gurode.

If we start Bernardeau or G. Williams at RG, we are basically saying screw this season and screw the health of our QBs and RBs. It is that serious of an issue. Starting Bernardeau at RG might even be in violation of the new CBA that is supposed to protect players health.

Mac is not that good nor will he ever be. One of my biggest peeves with this organization is that they give a longer leash to our drafted players than others, especially late round picks. If Mac was a FA undrafted rookie his arse would have already been cut, yet we drafted him and he's still here. A 7th round pick is essentially a FA anyway, move on and get more talent in here.

Is there a link that has him saying that?

Sorry, KK don't have one. I remember reading it somewhere but don't remember where (probably on the Huddle LOL).

Anyway, I'd rather give Bryon Bell a shot to see what he could do @ RG. At 6'5" 339 lbs he's got the bulk to man the inside and the footwork as a former OT as well. He and Otah (if he stays healthy) could potentially open some huge holes on the right side for Double Trouble (or Triple Threat if you included Goodson). JMO

    • I'm more impressed with the UDFA that the guys they have drafted in the first the last 2 years. A whole lot of prove it is still needed before any improvement should be talked about seriously.
    • Sure.    ignore that he said this roster wasn’t good in 2023 to 2024 but keep up the effort
    • While I don't believe its a must win, (we have been better on the road this post season) it is definitely A NEED TO WIN the longer this series goes the more pronounced the Canes advantage on rest and health will be! If we hold serve at home in games 1 and 2 guaranteeing a 6 game minimum series for them if we lose the road games..... by the game 4 and 5 I expect them to be beat they have played A LOT OF HOCKEY the last three years, they have MINIMAL rest off a more physical than one might have expected series vs the leafs.... you know Tampa took their pound of flesh in round 1 from them. Combine all that with the fact that even though this year's canes squad isn't as talented as last years this IS a better squad than the one they swept last time that had McKenzie Mckeathern on line 1 Turbo with a broken hand a banged uo and eventually concussed Slavin (and even though it was a sweep 6 OTS and 4 1 goal losses is hardly dominant)  This year Bob hasn't been superman (hes probably gonna still have a great save percentage agiast us just a side effect of our style) Thatchuk is maybe 50% (3 game winners agiast us) their defense no longer has Gudas and several other downgrades.  While the Canes have a healthy and performing Svechnikov along with other big guys to counteract florida like Carrier, Jankowski, Robinson.   I by know means think it will happen but I either see this as a low scoring dog fight or a series were the canes surprise and end up dominating.
