Marty Hurney has had his name connected to a couple of places, most notably Washington, where Rivera will have substantial input in the next general manager hire following the draft.

Tepper publicly stated that Hurney would stay in his place as the general manager of the Panthers — though the team will hire an assistant general manager/vice president of football operations in the near future. All indications from within the organization are that the plan in place will not change, including the fact that Hurney has continued some contract discussions with free agents James Bradberry and Tre Boston.

“I couldn’t have more respect for Marty. I think the team would be smart to keep him in some capacity around here,” said Olsen. “I think his track record and his understanding of relationships and his understanding of drafting, and young players, I think is really strong. I think he’s a huge asset to the organization.”

Hurney will likely address the media at some point in the next week, per NFL rules.

He's leading the coaching Hire along with Tepper. Once the head coach is found, the three of them will work together to hire the assistant gm/vp.  Hurney has massive control over both hiring processes.  It's not 100% his coaching decision but he's heavily involved and same thing will happen with asst gm

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
