Panthers New DC Ejiro Evero: Intro Video from Last Year
Mr. Scot replied to Saca312's topic in Carolina Panthers
Good video -
Another thing I noticed: Evero's position coaches in Denver were nearly all young guys who hadn't been coaching for all that long. Kinda suspect Sean Payton won't retain those guys (he'll likely want his own) so if Evero wants them, he can probably get them.
-
Looked a little at Evero's background. He and Reich have a common connection who also has a shoestring connection to the Panthers. He's an assistant who's coached both linebackers and defensive backs in his time, including our own Cory Littleton. His name? Chris Shula (Mike's nephew)
-
This hire is getting praise from all over...
-
Forgot Staley, yeah. That'll be more Reich's domain.
-
To be fair, that was his choice. Nobody ever expected him to be mistake free, but those were pretty bad choices.
-
Here's a wrinkle... Joe Person indicates Evero will be allowed to choose his own defensive staff. From the article... Besides the Panthers’ talent on defense, the ability to put together his own staff in Charlotte was attractive to Evero. We'd seen some talk about that but now it's confirmed. Wonder if the OC will be able to do that also (outside of Campen).
-
I thought about asking who still doesn't like the hire. I know we had some who didn't (and who expressed those feelings in rather strong terms)

We know the Panthers had already interviewed Evero so there wasn't really a need to repeat that process. My guess would be the "discussions" probably involved the Panthers saying "This is what we'll pay you" and Evero saying "okay".

Payton reportedly had a talk with him about staying on. Evero came out of it feeling like he'd be better off getting a fresh start somewhere else.

Using his wealth and someone else's brains...

Or offensive schemes, or...well, anything

Their names are still listed on the team site for now: https://www.denverbroncos.com/team/coaches-roster/ Bill Kollar is known for being one of the better DL coaches in the league. Also worth noting they just parted with a longtime strength and conditioning coach.
