Give up next years first?


CRA

Recommended Posts

I am sure Carolina will have tons of different strategies based on how the draft unfolds....with as deep as this draft is at DT and CB ( first 2 rounds).

What about giving up next years first to get into the top of round 2.

Get Kuechly, best DT and best CB on the board?

U know what u have done right? Prepare for thousands and thousands of replies that say no but personally I wouldnt mind it if done the right way

I am normally not a fan....I think there will be some good players that fit needs in the early 2nd. We also dont have 3rd this year.

Plus, this will really be Riveras first year of camp and getting bodies he wants for his scheme. Could be something to prep for....Hurney is Hurney.

All depends on how the draft unfolds....can't go in committed to do it just bc

yep...I'm really excited about the value we can get this year in round 2.

Oh for f**k's sake. Will we ever have a complete draft?

Just throwing it out there....we don't have a 3rd this year. Rounds 4-7 haven't really produced much of anything in our history. This is a big year for Rivera in terms of building the team he wants....he actually has an offseason. I think it is a possibility.

I think we need more than 2 picks out of the first 100 guys on the board......if we didn't have a new coach/scheme then maybe not. If not getting another 2nd then finding a way to get a 3rd.

Nooooooooooooooo ! We have the No 8 pick in the second round. I wouldn't mind trading our pick in the first round to a mid first and getting an extra pick in the second or third rounds. We will still get a starter in the mid first and good potential in the second

round. After the second round we usually don't fair well. No trading up. That how we got Edwards and Everret Brown and lost our picks.

    • 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.
