I'm running out of superlatives for this kid.

@3:30 in the parlance of this board get the fugg outta here

that's a sick downfield backshoulder throw

@15:20 4th and 14 gotta have it-delivers a strike

@16:22 I know it was incomplete and kinda risky throw, but sacred money don't make none.

I love the thought process and ball placement.

That's a confident man making an accurate that throw into tight coverage and he puts it the only place possible over the LB and right where Olsen has a chance to make a play on it. If #39 Abudullah doesn't make a good play that's a TD.

Big time throw.

I'm not sure if I would go that far. There's been running plays where he blocked absolutely nobody, and I'm talking about runs to his side.

For starters, Bell has more jobs than simply blocking the DE in front of him. If we are running a sweep to his side, it could very well be his responsibility to get outside and get up field while the FB takes out the DE.

Secondly, let's cut the undrafted rookie some slack. He's been playing great, even with the occasional mistake. Nice to know that OT won't be a need this offseason.

We haven't ran a toss sweep to the right in forever. Also I think OT is a need, and if available I would take Matt Kalil with our #1 pick, if not I would go OLB. We got to protect our investment in Cam.

      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.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      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.
