I find that comment interesting...as Polian was many years ago.

 

 

Bill Polian has openly hated the Panthers since he was fired. this is like asking Steve Smith for his opinion of Dave Gettleman. many people forget Bill Polian was our GM back in the day and was fired.

and that's a white man saying that. imagine being one of the demographics JR targeted with his bullshit.

You mean like Steve Smith and Julius Peppers? How about Thomas Davis? Cam Newton? There is one unsubstantiated rumor that JR said/did something uncouth to a minority. Maybe I'm out of the loop but I read the SI exposé. The race issue didnt sound nearly as credible as the sexual harassment allegations.

I'm all for letting the pervert have it for his treatment of women in the workplace and abusing his authority in that way but let's not act like the man was a racist. That's embarrassingly misleading at this point.

I never was a big fan of polian. In six Superbowl appearances he comes away with one ring. There may be validity to what he says but he rubs me as a salty old man

Lucked into Peyton as well and never was able to build a complete team around him.

Richardson had similar personality conflicts with Polian and Gettleman alike.

Both of them did business like "northerners", Polian occasionally like a psycho (look up the chair throwing incident) and it never sat well with Richardson.

Of course, Polian and Gettleman both have Super Bowl rings as executives.  Unless we win this year's Super Bowl, Richardson never will.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
