Kuechly could join scouting staff

Gantt stated on PFT that if the Panthers are already broadcasting this, it's probably going to happen, maybe even already in process.

I'd say he's likely correct.

Yeah, that seems kind of obvious when the organization is the one "reporting" it. 

I suppose it isn't a bad way to drum up a little excitement.

He will probably be pretty damn good at it... 4-5 tackles a game just from watching film.  That in itself is outstanding... and it's all because he can identify the other players strengths, weaknesses and tendencies.

His knowledge of the game is incredible. He’ll no doubt be very good at this and I’m glad it will likely be with us.

I love having him continue to be associated with the staff. He just seems like a perfect fit for that position. Would like to see him eventually move up the chain, too.

He seems like the kind of guy that is destined to be a great defensive coordinator.

Awesomeness!

Since this news broke, I've been internally debating whether he'd be better as a DC or as a personnel guy. There are pros and cons both ways.

One thing to remember though: As a pro scout, he does a little of both.

Pro scouts don't just check out possible free agency additions. They also scout opponents, study film to look for tendencies and things of that sort.

Obviously, that role plays to Kuechly's biggest strength.

Future GM?  

[Drk89Wng]

Hopefully so. I think he will be a great addition, if this happens. Let’s see how the cookies crumble.

Rhule is pretty strongly tied to Phil Snow. Not sure he'd move on from him unless Snow did it himself.

A career track in personnel might make more sense.

That is, unless Kuechly were to go somewhere else.
