It's taking a while because there's a lot of interest.

Sounds like there may be more suitors we haven't heard of yet.

(no, not Jordan)

Or Bezo 

 

Was hoping for March before the draft. But May works too.  Gives new ownership time to settle in before training camp.

Post draft is often when scouting staffs get walking papers.

I'd think that's more likely a year from now, though.

Keep seeing David Tepper's name popping up.  He'd have to unload his Steelers stake but he at least has been involved with ownership stake in a team before...beyond that I don't know much about him.  Well, except he is incredibly rich.

Net worth of nearly 12 billion...

The candidates that everyone takes most seriously right now are Tepper and Navarro.

Tepper could make the higher bid but Navarro is native to the Carolinas.

I noticed that...I did a little research on each one.  Given that Navarro lives in SC I'd probably feel a little better with him. 

Also:  Navarro is the son of former college coach Frank Navarro, who coached Princeton and Columbia, Navarro has deep ties to the sport but has never been directly involved with owning a team.

      Going from the 32nd to 27th ranked QB is a huge achievement indeed.

      Bryce Young is the first Panthers QB to throw for 20+ touchdowns in a season since Cam Newton in 2018.

      I do expect the offense to fall back to earth next year if everything stays the same.  It is kinda like how the Panthers and even now the Chiefs won in the past.  Winning many close, coin flip games.  It never lasts from season to season usually.

      I'm sold on the NFL being fixed.

      Biased is one way of putting it. The NFL is an entertainment product in the strictest legal sense. Although I might yell it out on game days, I do not believe the games are outright “rigged” meaning there is one team that is going to win no matter what happens. It’s impossible. There’s too much variance in the game that can prevent a truly rigged game from happening unless there was cooperation from many parties involved. What I am thoroughly convinced happens is that the NFL and referees “manage” the games towards certain outcomes. And that is done primarily through referee crew choice however I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s more going on behind the curtain.  The NFL uses the officials statistical tendencies to call penalties is to keep games close to drive user engagement. For example, If a crew tends to call more false start penalties, and there’s a game between a heavy pass offense where the NFL would like to manufacture a close game where it might have potential to be a blowout, then they’ll assign a crew that will slow that offense down and keep the game close.  There is an insane amount of marketing and now sports betting money that is married to the NFL economic ecosystem. To think this whole system is fair when the referee union has no outward accountability structure for poor performance is just naive. It’s closer to the WWE than outward appearances suggest, but it’s not a fully scripted outcome either. So for those who say “stop watching” if you don’t want to watch a “rigged” game, it’s an entertainment product. You can still be entertained by it, even if it’s not as fair as a truly merit based sporting event.
