Kuelchy was not a need..

LB was a need esp with the health of Davis.

On top of that, you cant even begin to compare Kuek's college numbers and Shorts. Completely diff class of players

With that said, I could live with Short in the 2nd. Would prefer Williams, Jenkins, Hunter, Hopkins, or Taylor though.

He is a solid UT

We definitely had bigger needs, but with Beason coming off an achilles injury, I would say that we had a need. Funny but out MLBs seem to enter as OLBs and quickly get moved inside as a result of injury.

I am concerned about all the DTs in the draft--when half bust, there is no certainty. Nick Fairley of Auburn supposedly is not doing well. Sedric Ellis, Glenn Dorsey, etc. I do not know why, but many bust.

I would just as soon bring in free agents or draft one later. They scare me.

*cough* well same for me since my previous DTs were McClain sigh.. and Jaye Howard, i still think Jaye is a good DT for the Seahawks, but he is not playing..

I cannot figure DT out and never will. Ha! at least we admit our shortcomings.

    • 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.
