Another sign that the season is fast approaching, Fox put its pre-season power ranking out yesterday.

The panthers are at a respectable 8th going into the year.

SUMMER STRENGTH: This is definitely a John Fox team, constructed on offense around a dominant ground game that ranked third in the NFL last season with a franchise record 2,437 rushing yards and 30 TDs. The backs are stacked, with the DeAngelo Williams/Jonathan Stewart combo spiced up with rookie third-round speedster Mike Goodson, and the strong O-line returns all five starters to camp.

CAMP CONCERN: Can a secondary that was torched in Carolina's 33-13 playoff loss to Arizona erase the trauma this summer?

COOL STAT: Including their wild-card loss at Arizona, the Panthers gave up 30+ points in five of their last seven games.

falcons at 4 though?

That list is surprisingly good considering that all of them are usually horrible. Falcons at four is not unbelievable, a little higher than I would have them though. Eighth for the panthers is probably right, and that's where I would put them if I wasn't such a homer.

      Kalkbrenner and Sion James received regular contracts and not two ways, so the Hornets have some work to do to cut the roster size down.

      Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.

      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.
