Mike Tolbert: Human Wrecking Ball

Is it just me that thinks Tolbert should be our feature back? Use DeAngleo as a change of pace guy after Tolbert wears the defense out after a couple quarters. Williams is so frustrating to watch and can't break a tackle to save his life.

 

I understand your thoughts but Williams is such a threat.  If our O line was halfway competent and gave him holes like Philly was giving McCoy or Dallas was giving their running back he would get 1300 yards easy like.  There are really only like 5 holes a game with our offensive line.  Our strength used to be run blocking now it's not. 

 

It's like his 26 yard run or the 59 yard pass play(fumble excluded of course).. we wouldn't get that with Tolbert.  I think it works fine as is.  Watching other teams Oline block makes you realize how little room our Oline gives the running backs.  The funny part is you have to watch other teams because our Dline is so good that they make the other teams Oline look like ours.

    • 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.
