The truth....once D.G.left the Gmen....team started to decline

Just to point this out to a few on here. After Dave left that team,it started a tailspin. I believe that his input with personal decisions really helped make them what they where.If this keeps up for them, the head coach might not make it through the season. We are lucky to have ths guy as the GM. His personal evaluation skills are top notch and he has begun to fix the cap issues. There is no doubt he will have the Panthers playing winning ball for many seasons to come. That would be something this team and the fans have never known before.

This may make me sound silly but, I had no idea how much  good GM could affect a team is such a short time. I am really impressed with the work he has done. I am also glad that he has shown some patience with his evaluation of Ron Rivera. I really think that Ron (especially when he develops more of a mean streak, like Bellisuck) will be a great coach. Sometimes he strikes me as just a little too nice. He must insist that his offensive coordinator keeps up the heat until the end or at least until victory is assured. I admit that it may be easier said than done, however. But yeah Gettleman is and will be a huge part of the process which is turning our team into a powerhouse. Yes...powerhouse!!!

I just New York needs a new identity. Has nothing to do with who the old assistant GM was. As good as they've both been in the past, maybe it's time to move on from Manning and Coughlin. If they suck this year they can land one of Mariota, Winston, Hundley or Petty.

True point in this thread, the Giants are awful, but lets face it, the entire NFC East is complete garbage (minus Eagles).  They have taken over the award that used to go to the NFC West.  It's looking like only the division winner will go to the playoffs, somewhere around 9-7.

I think the Giants sucking and our progress has plenty to do with g man.  The guy is a great talent evaluator.  With the rules of the NFL set up so that every team has the same purse to play with, you need to find diamonds in the rough in order to have success.  And g man is an ace at that job.

Another interesting Gettleman fact: the more The Huddle whines about his decisions has proven to be a reliable indicator of how good they are. I never heard as much complaining about Hurney as I hear about Gettleman, because, like the average fan, Hurndog had no business running an NFL franchise.

Gmen was the brains behind all the defensive drafting and stocking up during the offseason with the giants. They just used to load up every off season - now guess who's bringing in defensive line free agents from South Africa if need be. If and god forbid hardy was not to play - we wouldn't even feel it.

Getts is that good.

    • I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.
    • overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.     
    • Im really curious to see how the defense is going to look once its playing with some leads.
