2013 Draft Picks

EDIT: A lot of reports were saying that Jones was for a 2013 7th while what the trade for Murphy was wasn't officially disclosed. Murphy came at the cost of a 2013 7th round pick while Jones was for a 7th round pick. The team still has all of their 2013 picks aside from a 3rd (traded for Alexander) and 7th (traded for Murphy). Thanks Kurb!

The San Francisco 49ers are now in possession of Carolina's 3rd & 7th round picks for the 2013 draft. The 3rd was traded in order to draft Frank Alexander, while the 7th was sent for Colin Jones (whom the Panthers apparently have had their eye on since the last draft).

Louis Murphy came at the cost of a 4th or 5th round selection.

This leaves the team with a 1st, 2nd, 4th OR 5th, and a 6th round pick.

Do you think that this is a sign that the coaching staff likes what they're working with? Is this another reason that you hate The Hurney Badger? I don't see the team being able to trade up with the lack of ammunition, which makes me wonder if they're looking to trade one of the vets as the season goes on, or when the draft comes around. Obviously the draft is a ways off, so there isn't any reason to panic (but don't let that stop you!), but it does pose a few interesting questions.

I thought about posting this thread but choose not to because I felt it was too early and it is, but since it's here; I would say that Rivera and staff are comfortable with the players we have and feel that we only need a few upgrades.

      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.
