Person expects Rivera to promote Curtis Fuller

Panthers to promote from within to fill DB Coach job

Rivera values continuity on his staff. He stayed in-house to fill coordinator openings when Rob Chudzinski (2013) and McDermott left to become head coaches.

Fuller, 38, joined Rivera’s staff as an administrative assistant in 2013 before moving to an on-field position the following year as a defensive backs assistant. Fuller worked with the team’s nickel backs the past two seasons.

Fuller will assume Wilks’ former duties in coaching the Panthers’ cornerbacks, a group that included rookie starters James Bradberry and Daryl Worley in 2016 following the departure of Josh Norman and a couple of veteran corners.

Indeed.

No offense to Curtis Fuller, but with a group of young corners that'll need a lot of coaching, this is not the way I would have gone.  Not when guys like Ray Horton were out there.

It goes to the other threads. He values continuity and doesn't take risks. Instead of taking a chance to get better, he'd rather play it safe and know it won't be horrible.

Unless Gettleman knocks it out of the park in the draft and FA, I am starting to worry about 2017. The whole "evolve" story is a bunch of BS.

playing not to lose is the Rivera way

 

riverboat, lol

    • It's definitely a historical issue at QB but to be perfectly blunt, we also don't do a good job of really developing almost any position if you look at the last decade or so. I tend to be on the side of that being far less a development issue than an evaluation deficiency.  I think we are in the situation at QB2/3 recently due to the overall roster being absolutely abhorrent and the QB classes being quite thin. It is harder to justify another Matt Corral(or several) when you can potentially get a real two deep contributor at other positions.  But, it was a lot of hard work to get to the point where are roster is so incredibly bad that luxury picks literally are not in our vocabulary.  This is the reaping what you sow portion of our history.
    • That is what I meant about our front office. They are like someone filling out a March Madness bracket based on preference of uniform colors and mascots. There's no rhyme of reason to some of these fugg'n mind numbing decisions they make.  They go all in on these flimsy-@ss prospects and are gun shy when it comes to more solid prospects.  It's literally maddening and the reason I stopped being so emotionally involved in this team. Heck the only reason I'm active on the board today is one, it's my day off and two, it's cut down time.
