WCNC: Four Main Bidders - Not Three - In Play For Panthers Ownership


Saca312

Recommended Posts

WCNC just said on TV that there are four main bidders for the ownership that are all in play. Currently, the three main ones known are Tepper, Kestenbaum, and Navorro.

However, it appears there's another name in play who's staying under the radar. They didn't specify who exactly this particular guy is.

Food for thought.

Not gonna be Rubin because he's known.

James Goodnight was said to be "interested" but nothing more was ever said of it.

And no, it's not Michael Jordan :eyeroll:

(it's not Diddy, either)

Newton seems to confirm the fourth bidder exists...

A lot of misinformation was flying around the sale of the Panthers on Monday. Here’s what we know. A source close to the situation told ESPN that David Tepper, a minority owner with the Pittsburgh Steelers and hedge fund billionaire, remains a part of the process as do Charleston, South Carolina, billionaire Ben Navarro, Alan Kestenbaum and one unnamed candidate. Tepper contacted two news outlets to deny a report that he was out. "I have to tell you, for me, I like the people down there,” Tepper told the Charlotte Observer. “They remind me of my original hometown, Pittsburgh. The only thing I’m telling you is I haven’t dropped out,’’

For the folks looking to keep up on the sale, obviously I recommend following the usual sources like Person, Rodrigue and Newton, but here are a few other sources that have had good information on the process.

Katie Peralta - Observer Business Reporter

Rick Rothacker - Observer Business Reporter

Jonathan Jones - Former Observer writer now with Sports Illustrated

Albert Breer - Monday Morning Quarterback contributor (in my opinion, the best national source)

Ken Belson - New York Times writer who's been covering the team sale

    • I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.
    • I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality. 
    • I think the D performed well over the season considering it was put together with Scotch tape.
