This would literally be the one of the worst decisions in the history of football.  His evaluation skill is his week point.

I don't like Hurney as a GM. I do like Hurney as a person. I think he would actually be great in Morrison's old role. 

 

But I said this before Hurney was even hired. Don't sleep on Hurney being a candidate for the GM job and don't sleep on Jerry Richardson making an asinine decision to hire him. 

Won't feel good about this whole situation until the ink is dry on a new GM.

God I hope not, RR has not shown himself to be a competent coach consistently.  He does not need additional responsibilities. 

Pssssst... Pop?  After reading any sanjay post, I highly recommend one of these:

For your own sanity.

It has been speculated, but nothing concrete points that way. 

 

We do know that Hurney wants the GM job. That is what he enjoys. 

 

I don't think he would be quite so happy managing the front office types. 

we also know that anybody that wants the panthers to win and has a brain doesn't want hurney anywhere near the GM job

But what if I LOVE certain vets on the team, and want them extended no matter what the cap implications, and don't care about the bottom half of the roster, nor understand how to actually scout players into certain schemes?

Can I want Hurney then?

Hurney is in a unique situation. Maybe he has had time to grow and reflect on what lead to his ultimate failure as our GM. How many people get the chance to leave a job, take multiple years off away from the NFL, then step back into the exact same position you were fired from? I can't think of this ever happening before....maybe, hopefully Hurney has learned from his past failures.

 

Or maybe he's about to sign Greg Olsen to a 6 year 87 million dollar extension.

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
