Panthers and League wide GM candidates

[panther4life]

With us having expressed interest in double digit candidates,I thought it would be interesting who other teams are targeting and if any names are drawing interest from multiple teams.

Panthers confirmed candidates:

6 Interviewed Tuesday: Current team in ( )

• Kwesi Adofo-Mensah (Browns)
• Jeff Ireland (Saints)
• Nick Caserio (took texans job)
• Monti Ossenfort (Titans)
• Jerry Reese (Former Giants GM)
• Joe Schoen (Bills)

3 Interviews for today:

• Ed Dodds (Colts)
• Adam Peters (49ers)
• Ryan Poles (Chiefs)

Reported Interest but no interviews yet:

•  Brandt Tillis (Chiefs)
•  Champ Kelly (Bears)

Candidates drawing interest from multiple teams:

Jeff Ireland (Panthers, Lions)

Champ Kelly (Panthers, Broncos)

Jerry Reese (Panthers, Jaguars)

Terry Fotenot-  (Lions, Falcons, Jaguars, Broncos)

George Paton (Broncos, Lions)

Brad Holmes (Falcons, Lions)

Louis Riddick (Texans, Lions, Jaguars)

Interesting that more candidates aren't interviewing with multiple teams. Only 4 of the 12 we expressed interest in have at least 1 other interview scheduled so far (including Caserio who already went to the Texans). Only 8 Candidates league wide have interviews scheduled with multiple teams from what I can tell. Theres 6 GM openings, but the Redskins are not reported to be actively interviewing anyone yet.

Well, there's a guy named Marty something that they're said to be interested in.

Yep, probably hiring Hurney and they need to find a Rooney Rule patsy to make it work.

Another guy named Marty, specifically Martin Mayhew of the 49ers. Word is they're planning to interview him.

If so, it'd be the second time Mayhew's been used to cover for Hurney. He was one of the guys interviewed here when Marty was "interim".

Mayhew is also known for running the Lions team that went 0-16.

Ed Dodds intrigues me - I imagine we will hire someone by this weekend.

Champ Kelly is Chip and Brian's younger brother.

Dodds, Peters and the KC guys are the most intriguing prospects for me. Hopefully, after tomorrow we have it narrowed down to a couple of candidates
