Blackmon physically looks like the 2nd coming of Calvin, doesn't he?

Panthers could use someone like that, without doubt, but, serious defensive problems, and the need for another OT (and now Bell isn't the long-term answer and Gross is getting long in the tooth) will probably not make that possible, but, who knows.

Hard to find quality OTs and DTs past round 2.

I just hope, somewhere along the way, the Panthers draft a kicker who can kick-off and make field goals...sick already of Mare.

Imagine if we had both Kalil brothers and both were successful? Collect the whole set.

Calvin Johnson is 6'5 and and weighs 235.

Justin Blackmon is 6'1 and weighs 210.

Those two are nothing a like physically.

But, if I were making the pick? Morris Claiborne, Dre Kirkpatrick, Justin Blackmon, or, I would trade back and try and get Janoris Jenkins while picking up a third.

No.

Calvin Johnson is 6'5" 235.

Blackmon is 6'1" and twenty pounds lighter.

Guy wears big pads. Doesn't fill them well.

      Off Season Thread

      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.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      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

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      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.
