The Carolina Panthers have signed seventh-round draft choice (216th overall) Captain Munnerlyn from South Carolina, the team announced Wednesday.

A 5-8, 186-pound cornerback who also returned kickoffs and punts, Munnerlyn played in 36 games with 28 starts for the Gamecocks prior to entering the NFL following his junior season. He finished his career with 97 tackles, two sacks, five interceptions, 19 passes defensed, two forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries in addition to averaging 22.8 yards on 23 kickoff returns and 7.6 yards on 37 punt returns.

Munnerlyn started all 13 games as a junior in 2008 when he recorded 44 tackles and five passes defensed to go along with an 84-yard kickoff return and an 81-yard blocked field goal return for a touchdown against Kentucky. He earned All-SEC first-team honors as a junior after producing 47 tackles, three interceptions and seven passes defensed. Munnerlyn becomes the first of the Panthers' seven draft choices to sign

      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.
