Roster Control

[Jeremy Igo]

Hurney fills the roster. 

Rhule empties it.

Depends on the narrative...I've read on here that Rhule supposedly had full control of the widely praised draft, but Marty had full control of all other roster moves in the offseason like signing Bridgewater and keeping Short.  Not sure how that makes sense, but you know what they say: "Always believe everything you read on the internet from anonymous posters on a message board".  Or something like that...that might be paraphrased.

Coaches tend to have a lot of say when it comes to final cutdowns.

And naturally, they have complete control over the depth chart.

When I watch these things on TV, and that is real all the time, the coach seems to collaborate with all stakeholders and make the call.

With the shaping of the final roster just over the horizon, there's one thing I'd like to know about roster control.

Who really has it?

Prior to his getting the Panthers job, the word on Matt Rhule was that he wanted full roster control. Not surprisingly, NFL teams balked at the idea of giving that to a coach with so little NFL experience.

But how much control did the Panthers give him?

They balked over full staff control.

I still feel Marty will be let go once Rhule feels comfortable in GM duties.

Tepper laid off the roster control wing, so it will be a 2 out of 3 vote between Rhule, Hurney and Sir Purr

That's a question for Tepper.  None of us idiots know the answer to that.
