Lack of third round pick is going to hurt in this draft

Regardless of talent - its finding it. Hurney seems to struggle after the 1st.

I think Olsen is better than any pick we could get in the 3rd.

Well thats just it...even I can identfy talent with this years 3rd round.

It's going to be near impossible to get a decent offer trying to move down from 9th overall. That's a really poor spot.

One scenario that nobody discusses that I think is much more likely is moving down our 2nd rounder. Just about every year there's a few 1st round talents that drop to the top of the 2nd. Finding a team with a mid-late 2nd and 3rd looking to move up could be a viable option.

Why not Dwill...

We would get Cap Space and a precious 3rd rder

You couldn't trade Williams. He is untradeable. Teams aren't looking to bad older RBs big cash when they can find cheaper options. Like using a 3rd round draft pick on a RB

There will be lots of guy projected tto be third rounders ho drop into the fourth. No need to worry. On the other hand I would rather keep Hurney occupied trying to figure out what to do to get our third as long as it doesn't involve giving up any picks next year.

I would prefer to do the anti Hurney.

Trade this years 2nd for someones 1st next season.

      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.
