Mcshay when evaluating Latimer was floored by the first 5 games he watched bc he thought he was going to be a 3rd rounder + guy before his film evaluation.

He was raving about his route running and that he did not drop ONE pass in those 5games either in traffic or deep over the shoulder catches.

Partnered with his 6'2 3/4 frame 4.38-4.4 speed makes him one of the elite second tier WRs after (1st tier Watkins, Evans)

It was a "matter of fact" style convo about him not lasting past the Saints. Boo

Can elite and second tier actually be used in the same sentence like that?

That's like saying the smartest retarded person

The more I hear the more I'd be fine taking him at 28, though I still think we were hoping to get him at 60 after grabbing OL in the first. There are literally over a dozen receivers I'd be fine spending a 1st or 2nd pick on, and a few will still be there at 60.

OT of course isn't that deep, so I'm conflicted. Would love to get one of the WRs early (at worst I think we get the sixth one of 28), but if we can grab Moses, Martin, or even Kouandjio (assuming he checks out health-wise) then it probably makes sense to take one early and grab a sliding receiver in the second.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      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.
