I think he wil fit in fine but I am still holding out on the notion that he is Hoover's heir apparent.

Not that I don't like the guy. I want him to be a monster in the backfield and help Dubl Trubl get more yards than any other 2 teams in the NFL combined.

I'm just waiting to see him in action, plus I am quite the Hoover fan.

Those are some big shoes to fill, IMHO...

It is a bit earlier, but camp comes later this year too. Normally we start with the low round picks early July usually squeezing in the top pick just as camp starts (except for Beason).

With no first rounder, I guess it shouldn't be difficult to have everyone signed on time.

For Fiammetta, that's good he's signed. It's seems the opinions are about split on his role this year. I'm in the camp of, Yeah, the guys' a beast,but he's got to learn. Those thinking Fiammetta is bouncing Hoover this year is sorely mistaken, IMO.

I think CJ wilson or nate salley will be cut. But we are doing well with our signings so far.

Nah, they will cut camp fodder signed in the winter before cutting regulars. Especially to sign draft picks. The chances of CJ and Nate making it past the final cut in early Sept. are very high.

I don't think he'll bounce hoover this or next season. However I think with his skill sets and speed, that he should be polished enough Talent wise going into this season to take some plays away from Hoover. Which in my book is a good thing, the longer you can keep (one of if not the best blocking fb in the league) fresh the better.

      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.
