Am wondering if this was voluntary or maybe Tepper already told her that her services were no longer needed.

I think it's a case of "quit before he fires me". She was never anything more than Jerry Richardson's proxy anyway.

I imagine Richard Thigpen should be out soon too.

Omar Khan still seems like a real possibility to me.

The fact that he will continue to run the hedge fund is both troubling and exciting.  Was hoping he would take a little time away to examine the team from the top down, but also that he continue to work to keep from meddling as much as JR did.

Kent Babb believes that he'll transition to full time Panthers owner within the next year or so.  He'll want to make sure the hedge fund he built is in good hands first.  And to be fair, the people whose money is involved deserve that.

In the meantime, put someone like Khan in charge and let them get things in order.  That's better anyway to be honest, seeing as Tepper isn't a football guy.

      Defensive Tackle: The Need that Shall Not be Named

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Great post! Now that I think on it, I think D line might be our biggest need. We are one player away from having a potential disastrous defensive line. Brown and Wharton struggled last year and Wharton has really only been a rotational player that specializes in one thing. Can we count on him being a full time starter? Jackson is unproven. Do you want a starting defensive line of Wharton, Brown and Jackson? I don’t want to risk it.   I honestly don’t think linebacker is that big of a need. If Rozeboom ends up coming back then why get a LB?   games are won in the trenches and I would honestly prefer us drafting an offensive or defensive linemen over any other position in the first. The prospect you mentioned seems like a good prospect who has had some good production as well. Only problem is defensive line is a position that can take time for a player to develop. Will whoever we draft be ready this season ?

      Have they though? I'll give you KC with Kelce, but c'mon, they weren't winning those SB's because they had a great TE, it was a combination of Mahomes and some great defenses.  Will also give you the 49ers and Ravens with Kittle and Andrews, but even then, both have missed time with injuries the last few years. After those 3 teams, the best teams of the last 2-3 years have not had elite TEs The Eagles had Goedert, he's good, not great. The Bills have also had good but not great TE's The Rams have had average TEs and still consistently run 2 and 3 TE sets with them and still win. The Bucs have been winning the South without a great TE The Lions' Laporta is more a name than a highly productive TE. The Texans have had a serviceable TE in Shultz, but nothing too amazing. Some of the best TE's in the league the last few years have been on some of the worst teams.  McBride, Bowers, Warren, Njoku, even Pitts this past year. A true elite TE is absolutely a weapon in today's game, but I think the best teams use that money elsewhere and find serviceable TE play, usually through a committee where each TE brings something else to the table.
