CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - The Carolina Panthers released injury-prone linebacker Dan Morgan and guard Mike Wahle on Monday in the first of many expected changes during the offseason.

Morgan was Carolina's first-round pick in 2001, but played in only 59 of 112 games with the Panthers because of numerous injuries, including at least five concussions. He missed the final 13 games last season with a partially torn right Achilles' tendon.

Wahle started all 16 games last season at left guard. He turns 30 next month and the Panthers clear salary cap space with his release.

<<< Anxiously awaiting the next "We should go get Mike Wahle" thread from one of our Madden "Dynasty Mode" experts... :twisted:

I was playing Madden 2005 earlier and noticed that Mike Wahle is great! We should sign him to a 7 year deal worth 94 million just so nobody else can outbid us.

Considering Wahle is actually younger than both our starting guards, and at least one of those guards missed games last year (whereas Wahle started all 16), looking at Wahle is not such a bad idea. It's practically a given a starter on the O-line is going to miss time in 2008.

It's also practically a given that a starter on the overwhelming majority of NFL teams is going to miss some time in 2008.

So you're agreeing?

Dan Morgan is an excellent linebacker when healthy. Just has had a streak of bad luck with the concussions and all. Other than that he is outstanding in the middle.
