Offseason moves and draft.

Sign Lardarius Webb CB/KR/PR (2013 Draft Tender)

Draft

1 - Quinton Coples DE/DT

2 - Lavonte David OLB

4 - Casey Hayward CB

5 - Matt Reynolds OT

6 - Shawn Powell P

7 - D'Anton Lynn FS

I really like Ladarius Green (TE) but feel we have other positions of need to address.

As for the "scat back" I'm relatively clueless as to who we should pick up.

Not sold on Still, Brockers or Kirkpatrick.

1st pick subject to change if Blackmon, Kalil or Claiborne fall.

Trade down scenario with Benglas or Patriots for two first round picks my choice would be Janoris Jenkins and Courtney Upshaw.

I saw a mock draft on footballs future giving us 4 DTs...kinda ridiculous because they played well at the end of the year, but if the coaching staff thinks brockers is an impact player then we should take him. I'm hoping curry falls to our second round pick because I think improving the pass rush is a must

That's why I like Coples with our first pick. He has the ability to be very disruptive against the pass and run.

Apparently he's tearing it up at the senior bowl, if his heart is in it I'd take him

Coples does not love the game. He has trouble self-motivating. Vinny Curry on the other hand LOVES football, and you have to force him to stay away from it. That's the kind of player I want. Those are the players that become great..

That's why I said I want curry with our second pick, he's relentless and mayock was saying how he had unexpected power and held up better against the run than he thought. He did well against mike Adams in 1 on 1 pass rushing and shows that he can do it against good competition

I love the game... Can I be great? :frown:

My ideal draft, which I know 99% won't happen, would be to trade down with the Bengals for their two first rounders. Take Brockers and Jenkins in the first, then Dwight Jones in the second. Fourth through sixth round get some combination of OL, OLB, and Ron's coveted scat back (I really like Isaiah Pead and Ronnie Hillman; Chris Rainey would be nice too). In the seventh, I wouldn't mind getting Baker's replacement or just add more depth to the defense (maybe Asa Jackson or Dwight Bentley).

Edit: Actually I think it'd be better if we take either Lavonte David, Bruce Irvin, Bobby Wagner, or possibly Zach Brown in the second, then take a receiver later like Brian Quick, Tim Benford, Marvin McNutt.

    • 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.
