This offseason the Panthers signed Mike Tolbert to upgrade over Goodson, whom was traded to the Raiders for Campbell whom is depth at the RT position for when Jeff Otah is traded to the Jets for a draft pick to make up for trading a draft pick to the same Raiders for Louis Murphy to sure up our receiver corps. Traded a fumble machine and a cripple to get a viable receiver who can block and a solid backup with potential (All at no cost!) and signed a beast on the cheap. What a day.

It's almost as if it was all planned out from the beginning. Dump off dead weight to make the roster better not just on offense but special teams as well. Give Hurn-dawg props where it is due. :clap:

Didn't think this needed its own thread, so I'll drop it here as it could relate to some potential Hurney Magic.

Think he knows something we don't?

Maybe, but lets sit on that one before we make assumptions. Too many assumptions today, hurts my brain.

Cripple for a WR who just had a recent injury himself this past season. If that is true what some people said. Yes decent trade. But only if Murphy doesn't get hurt again and he can produce. Then the trade is all worth it.

We waited too long to get rid of Otah (former 1st rounder who we gave up picks for) and could only get a 7th for him. Hurney is Hurney. Not terrible, not great. Somwhere in the middle. Only magic he has is staying average.

this is true.. It's not Hurney Magic because that would imply Hurney can do the impossible, and that is what it would take for Hurney to be respected by some..

I think that's the expectation the coaching staff has as well... after all, our current rookie 7th round pick may not even make the team, so if all we lose is a 7th for Murphy (worst case scenario) then so be it.

      Who are your favorite prospects in this upcoming draft?

      By Ronnie Bass · Posted

      Not saying he should be 1st round, but Kyle Kennard is being WAY overanalyzed. At 6-5 260 he won the Nagurski, SEC defensive poy, all american, for those who are unifamiliar. His weaknesses aren't so bad that he should be like 20th among D ends lol. Could he use more pass rush counters, sure, but his fball IQ is better than half these ends i've watched. He's skilled with his hand placement and punch which is important, that's the first thing guys like Belichick look for. I think he can be stiff at the top of the rush, but his lateral movement is better than a lot of the guys I watched. He always found ways to be disruptful, he's craftier and more quick twitch than the testing numbers might say. Takes Great pursuit angles and is good in space when it becomes a broken play. A lot of ends I watched were lost once the ball got outside of the tackle box. I think a predictor of success at this level too is love of the game, and he's a fball guy. "Want to" and relentless coupled with technique win when it comes to DLine play, you can see it with Clowney, when he wants to flip the switch  he can, KK always has his switch on.

      Free Agency: QB Musical Chairs

      As a Panther fan, we want him to stay.  It means more lust for the QBs picking before us.  We need Sanders going top 5.

      Free Agency: QB Musical Chairs

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I will start.  Please do not copy my ideas.  Reminder:  I SUCK at picking QBs, a tradition upheld since 2010. Aaron Rodgers___New York Giants__ Kirk Cousins*____will not be traded until after draft Sam Darnold __Minnesota Vikings (do not rule out a sign and trade) Justin Fields __Pittsburgh Steelers_ Russell Wilson Las Vegas Raiders So after these guys are signed in free agency, the following teams will need a QB entering the draft:   Cleveland NY Giants  (Signed Rodgers but might draft a QB too on day 2) NY Jets New Orleans Indianapolis Tennessee If my predictions are correct(?) two to three QBs could be available for trade.    Cousins could go to Indy, following the exit path for discarded Falcons QBs.  Tennessee will have to pick Ward and they should, which puts Cleveland in a unique situation.  I think the Jets, Raiders (if they don't sign Russell), and Saints will go hard after Sanders, and they will offer Cleveland a lot. Cleveland could move back, grab a bunch of draft capital, draft the T they need, and then they could draft a QB later--it all depends on how much they like Sanders.  The Saints have no cap room (-$44m), so a trade with Minnesota or Atlanta is out.  Moving up to #2 from #10 is expensive in terms of draft capital.  Suck it, Saints. They will have to stay with Carr.  I think that the Jets will trade up with Cleveland to get Sanders and Cleveland will take a T and draft a QB later.  Do not be surprised to see a player like Daniel Jones in Cleveland on a one-year deal if they trade back.
