Mr. Scot

He was primarily a communications guy. Spent the years before as head of that department. Richardson had a habit of putting people in positions that didn't necessarily fit their skill set. He was one of those people who think if you're good at one thing, you'll automatically be good at something else (even if there's zero correlation between those things) you.

Understood. And good work...

Honestly, if I had to guess I'd say nobody. Despite his title, he wasn't really a football guy.

High level officials resigning from Tepper's organizations has been kind of a theme.

There were some accusations thrown at Tepper over Wilks, which likely is why this gets mentioned. Regarding Drummond, what's more relevant to me is he's one of the last few front office types that was here under Richardson.

Appropriate every draft season

Heard that too

I get the sense that things are moving toward a much more Fitterer / Reich centered operation. Might not be the last change we see...

In part, helping to hire Matt Rhule

It's his thing, of late; accusing everyone who disagrees with him of having multiple accounts. Wonder why he'd think that

Is he sober?

In that scenario, the Panthers are equally happy with either Young or Stroud. (and probably get Stroud)

I struggle with Mike Lombardi in particular. His takes are very hit or miss. And yeah, I've not heard of a single character issue with Stroud.

The Panthers seem to be thinking about it...

FYI: Not a draft visit but a cool moment for Jaycee Horn...

But when one or two of them happen to get in on a thread, look out

Well, there was the Lingerie League. (which, if my significant other is reading this, I want to make clear I absolutely positively never watched a single second of; I only know about it from seeing news articles online)

I mean, it could be, but so could Stroud, Richardson or Levis. And hell, even the best coaches and personnel guys make mistakes. But I'm like you. I trust the people we have in charge now and will do so till they give me reason not to. (here's hoping that doesn't happen anytime soon)

The Young talk is valid. He's definitely very possible, though all reliable sources say the decision isn't made yet. That said, on the occasion of the Texans offering a decent package to trade up, do the Panthers take it? If the offer's good enough, I think they do. Mind you, that doesn't make the Young discussion a smokescreen. It's just the acknowledgment of another possibility.
