Tepper confirmed in his presser that he actually already has "a couple of people" that he's trying to wrangle for the team president job. Voth clearly already knew about it when he asked the question.

No names given, but I've long suspected Steeler second in command Omar Khan would be an ideal candidate for that.  I may take a look at other possible options at some point.

It'll be interesting to see who gets named, and how soon it happens.

I'd prefer Genghis Kahn, with his own statue:

Max Henson officially confirms the search is on for a team president, and a few other things...

Quote

His arrival has signaled change, evidenced by something as simple as new paint and the removal of signage in the stadium lobby.

Among the major changes he discussed at the presser:

  • A new practice facility, which he believes the team desperately needs. “We can’t be less than competitive with other NFL teams,” he said. “We’re falling behind a little bit.”
  • Early discussions about plans to “re-do” the stadium and host more events for the Charlotte community, like concerts and high school championship games.
  • The search for a team president, who will be tasked with fostering a family environment.

Kinda wonder what signs they took down :thinking:

Probably all of the stuff that referenced Jerry Richardson as the owner. He was pretty proud of himself, so there was a good bit of it. 

Seems logical.

Perhaps he wasn't "contractually obligated" to keep anything other than the statue up.

That's some Kim Jong Un level narcissism, contractually obligating them to keep his statue. That thing is an eyesore. I wonder how long he'll have to keep it up.

The other name that's been mentioned in connection with Tepper in the past was former Browns Chief financial officer and later team president Mike Keenan. A while back, Ian Rapoport said Keenan was being talked about as a possible addition under Tepper.

Keenan was fired in 2010 and, if I recall correctly, hasn't worked in the NFL since. My understanding is that he worked well as a financial guy, but not so much as a football guy.

If Rodrigue is correct and Tepper plans to replace both Tina Becker and Danny Morrison with separate people, Keenan could be a candidate to take over the business side of the operation. It's also possible that Tepper will appoint someone solely for the business side and leave the football side untouched for now.

We'll see.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
