Prediction- The panthers will fail to sign a GM in waiting after the draft

Honestly, wasn't that the perceived snafu with the Giants and Rhule?  Rhule wanted more control over the personnel.  Am I remembering this correctly?

I believe first time NFL coach money was the issue. His agent called the giants and told them the panthers offer, they couldnt believe it or get close to it. Rhule broke all records for 1st year coaching contract in years and money. Giants are like the Lakers/Yankees, where they think their history is very valuable. Times have changed some, its not. Money, money money. fyi Rhule is higher paid than Andy Reid and many others.

I know people cant understand this.  Hurney is our GM and its not going to change anytime soon.  Get used to it. 

Rodrigue confirmed that Hurney's contract is up after this season. He'd need an extension to stay as GM.

Granted, that's possible, but it hasn't happened yet. It's also possible, as Tepper has hinted, that he gets offered a different role.

Word for the moment is still that the Panthers will hire an assistant GM who'll take over for him.

After this season isnt anytime soon.  Many huddlers actually believe he will just make the draft picks then disapear.  Not going to happen.  I agree this is probably his last year in Carolina(and most likely GM all together)

What @jfra78 said.

Rhule & Tepper are making the calls with informational input from Hurndog.

Hiring someone else would simply be a waste of money and despite his vast wealth Tepper grew up poor and still values a dolla.

PS...plenty of folks work without a contract,  I'm sure Hurndog would be perfectly amenable to doing so.

What other option does he have?

    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
    • I dont recall that happening to a qb but my memory has been crap the past few years
