Person is a  middle-aged man who spikes his hair with gel.  When he asks a question, the entire room hesitates for a few seconds in order to reconnect with the intelligence they temporarily lost in an attempt to drop to the level of the question in order to understand its meaning, only to find there was none.

Revoking the press pass of someone from the largest newspaper covering the Panthers is an awful idea. Teams have done similar in the past and it always go really, really poorly. The rest of the media who might even hate Person will still take it as a shot at their profession then they would all make the Panthers the enemy. I know most of you probably think they are already treated that way but the Charlotte media is a joke compared to the major markets where the claws are always out.

Darin Gantt got his pass essentially "revoked" and was reassigned to the Winthrop Women's Volleyball beat in 2010 after he accused Fox of mutiny by starting Brian St. Pierre over Tony Pike. If the Panthers don't want you in that media room all they have to do is make one phone call. JR practically owns the observer considering the only reason most people still buy the local paper is to read the sports section. They've left Jourdan alone because they want that story to die and stay dead, but if it's going to be a problem she won't be around much longer. Person probably came close with his report on LaFell's child payment situation and I'm sure he was warned never to do that kind of thing again. It's hard for a local newspaper to hire anyone worth a crap and if someone is any good they are scooped up by a bigger publication quickly (see Jonathan Jones).

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      I realize it about the expectations, but on paper, we drafted players who would have a chance to compete at positions where any could realistically step in and take the job---Freeling?  Yup.  Hunter?  Yup.  Brazzell?  Yup.  It is likely that all three see the field early and often.  Day 3:  Lee?  I see him as the #3 CB and the job is his when they are ready for him--and it is his to lose.  Hecht?  I loved him in mock research and called him the best C in the draft.  He might play a year behind Fortson or he could take the job--regardless, he is the obvious front runner for the 2027 season.  Wheatley?  I see Ransom and Moehrig as basically the same "in the box" type S.  If Wheatley can learn for a season behind Scott, he has the tools to be a serviceable FS, something this team needs.  Finally, Kuwatch seemed to be a PS pick, and he could be--but to win the 4th ILB job, he needs to beat out Bam Morris-Scott and with a 46.5 vertical (I can't do that on the triple jump) and a superior RAS rating, he looks like a special teamer and depth piece.....I forgot about Morgan's comment about giving up the 5th--probably to get ahead of Detroit.  Freeling has the athleticism and the tools to be the best OT in this draft.  The others lacked arm length or something like that--Freeling simply lacks a ton of experience.

      excellent points and insights.  I agree on Tepper.  I guess I worry that his questions and comments might influence the thinking of his employees, that his presence in the room might add pressure to an already stressful situation, but after watching it again, it does not appear to be like that.  Morgan was in charge.  Canales mentioned needing a center, but beyond that, he was there to serve as a consultant, more or less, if asked.  I suppose my point was this--everyone knew their roles, I did not see egos--I saw empowerment.  As for Morgan--I saw a leader that listened to others, made wise decisions, and never lost control.  I was VERY IMPRESSED with Dan Morgan.

      Pretty good summation, although I would caution just a bit that there might be a little of over-enhanced expectations. I do agree with the assessment on BPA. It was exceedingly clear they had a specific shopping list. Early on when there was some discussion about the tackles available, Morgan was asked if he was willing to give up a 5th to get Freeling, if it came to that. I think the only way it wasn't a left tackle with that 1st pick is if none that were valued as a 1st were still available.
