Mr. Scot

I get the impression nobody knew it till now but honestly can't say. Either way, that's a big deal.

Confirming the time...

If you had a chance to listen to Rodrigue talking to Julian Council about Ejiro Evero's defense, you'd have thought you were listening to a coach breaking down film. She knows her stuff.

No argument with any of that...

Probably a good watch if you can find it. There's likely a link to this full podcast out there but I didn't see it either of the tweets quoted.

The team liking Levis really shouldn't surprise anyone either, especially knowing the connection he has to Thomas Brown through Liam Coen.

The article makes it sound like she's got a bright future. It's funny. In past years even women sportswriters were unusual, but ladies like Mary Kay Cabot and our old friend Jourdan Rodrigue have shown they can do just as good a job as anyone. I've certainly talked to women who knew their football as well or better than some men. So coaching and scouting? Sure, why not?

And another linebacker...

In a recent interview on a podcast, former Panther Christian McCaffrey talked about his exit from Carolina. Many of us had speculated that he asked to be traded. This interview makes that sound unlikely.

Nah... But I am

Well I'm retired now, so there's a pretty good chance I'll be getting there shortly

Linebacker

Yeah sorry, I disagree.

Draft related...

Thanks, dude...or non-dude...

I got nothing to sell, just analyzing. And as you can see looking back, I'm not the only one who looked at it this way.

You know you're probably gonna hear this for a little while, right?

Sorry dude but yeah, I think you're downplaying it. As for me, I've said repeatedly that I'm happy whether we sign him or not. It's just a matter of approach. I trust the people we have running the show now.

It's Wednesday, Jon

David Newton has reported that the Panthers have already had "preliminary discussions" with Sam Darnold.

Starting at 1:30pm

I'm guessing you don't want Carr.

Carr's only met with the Saints and Jets once before. His meeting with the Jets tomorrow will be their second. Tepper was in on the Deshaun Watson meeting too.

Here's a little more from the article on that topic... This is Jordan Trgovac’s first combine since making the jump from the Panthers’ public relations department to scouting last May. Trgovac, 28, who played softball at the College of Charleston, is part of a small but growing number of women in scouting. According to the NFL’s Jordyn White, there were 33 women in full-time scouting roles in 2022, a 9 percent increase from the 2021 season. Trgovac is participating this week in the NFL’s two-day Women’s Forum, which will connect 41 women — 60 percent of whom are women of color — with NFL leaders in a networking opportunity in the fields of scouting, coaching and football operations.

Kinda doubt it. Quarterbacks maybe, but all players? Probably not. And no, I wouldn't downplay this.
