Hurney has'nt done a bad job. the only bone i can see is Davis....why take Davis at a safety and turn him into an LB....3 year turn around when we could have just drafted an LB. WTF..... I retract my statement that Hurney is Fox foreskin...he's really jus Fox sack sweat....

What is the consensus on Marty Hurney? I personally have no issues with the guy, he usually nails the first round pick, does a good job with our cap and signing talent. Even if Fox is gone, I would prefer Hurney as our GM

Hmm lets see....

hE HAS mortgaged the future 2 years in a row, paid one man a 5 men salary and left this team with NO DEPTH ....

If this season fails, its over for hurney. Give me someone who has a fire to prove something to the nfl.

That's a fairly short list considering Spoon and Pep go back to 2002. I wouldn't put Stewart on that list but I would add Dwill.

And those guys he brought up are all 1st and 2nd round picks. Where are Hurney's late round players that are making an impact on this team? Captain Munnerlyn? Anyone will tell you that the late round players are where GMs make their money.

Hurney's drafting has hurt this team more than Jake and Fox.

we should really be able to enlarge avatars....

i was going to defend hurney.. but as i was writing my post i realized he let muhammud go a year before we went to the NFCCG and it might have actually cost us that year out of all years.

I guess he's done alright,but the trying to get 1st round picks for Peppers and nobody was biting wasn't smart!the Patriots wanted him,he should have lowered it to 2nd round picks and sent him on his way,if that didn't work,a2nd and 4th,anything to get him outta here!Instead,they are paying $17M+,maybe $19M for a primadonna that plays half ass for our team,our season might already be over,bench him,screw him,I hope he gets a lousy contract w/another team!He has done great(Pep)for our team in the past,but for that much $$,he is a worthless bum!The Panthers need to learn to cut players that aren't worth the boatload of $$ it takes to keep them!If peppers decides to play like superman,I'll change my tune,but til then he is being pretty stupid for playing 1/2 assed and it will come back and bite him in the ass!:nono:

Anyone who has ever said... "With the talent we have on this team _____________" has no right to bitch about Hurney. He is responsible for getting it here. That said I think we can do better. I also don't think we are very talented right now and that the team has performed above the talent level during the Fox era.

The problem with our team is depth. We have no depth at either lines, which IMHO are the two most important groups in football. The reason we have no depth is poor late round drafting and Pep's huge salary. Both of which are his fault. We have never tried to get a early round QB to groom behind Jake. He is just not that good a GM all around. We can do better.

I assumed this thread was a joke until I opened it. As ultimate decision maker of personnel, Hurney is the most responsible for this team's failure. I'd give Fox the silver and Peppers the bronze. Honorable mention to Jake of course.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
