Guess what coveted WR by some Huddlers didn't have a TD catch in 2013

Charlotte's own, Hakeem Nicks.

 

Hometown boy. Tie to G-man. Unless he's giving a serious discount, I will pass.  The risk is too much in my estimation. I don't want to give much needed dollars to a guy who has suspect sticks. Seriously, at this point I don't even know if he is better than what we have on the roster right now. He seems to have lost a step and is unable to get separation.  His big frame and ability to out-muscle smaller DBs for targets is the only enticement that I see in regards to Nicks, and that's not enough in my estimation to prolifically upgrade our WR corps.  I'd rather take my chances with fresh legs.

I see Nicks signing a one year contract with someone.

If Nicks goes for a long term contract that tells me he doesn't have faith in his skills and wants the security. If he thinks he still has it, he'll be happy to sign a one year somewhere and earn his big pay day the year after next.

If he wants to come here and play with a chip on his shoulder for a year like some of these other guys, than it may work. Ideally we draft a receiver or two in the draft and roll with those 2, Ginn and Smitty.

Good, im glad he didnt. Makes it more likely we can afford him and get him on the cheap now. Eli has been horrible and thats a compliment, 25 picks. He was so bad this year he deserves a pro bowl spot because it takes some very rare skill to be as horrible as he has been this year. Eli Manning this year was like The Expendables movie, so bad its good.

Nicks is going to be your classic case of a very good WR brought down by a terrible team who needs a change of venue. He will be at pro bowl level with a different team, watch.

      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

      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.
