Well, if we are keeping some kind of score on that. I pegged Adams even prior to March 25th. Below is a post from this forum, but I don't know how to just forward it, so I copied & pasted.

I just think it's cool that we got Adams!

  • DawgzLife Posted 25 March 2012 - 12:09 PM It looks like Hurney & Rivera are addressig STs in FA to some degree (thankfully!), but we need an impact player maker for both punt returns & kickoff returns. What are everybosy's thoughts on who, if any the Panthers should draft OR make a hard push for in high priority UDFA immediately after the draft.

    My choice would be Joe Adams from Arkansas. Humor me here, but he reminds me of Smitty. He is a WR, but I think his 'immediate' impact would be at return man (he has some sick moves & great vision).

    I think some people feel if a guy is physically talented, they can retrurn punts &/or kicks (for example, Hurney & Foxy thinking Edwards could be 'the man'), but the key is the vision. Adams didn't run an incredibly fast 40 at the combine, so he should be available in 5th or later.

    What does everyone think (or do you think Armanti Edwards will improve enough for this not to matter)? Devon Wylie from Fresno State is interesting as well, he ran a 40 under 4.4 & has skills with returns. Not looking for high round picks for this, obviously.

Yeah well if it means poo, I predicted the Brad Nortman pick in my mock draft!!

When did you do the mock & why did you target Nortman? What round did you mock him to us? Not sure how many others would have targeted him with Butler & Anger...nice!

      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

      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.
