Who's your choice for GM?


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Peters and Dodds are both young and have very successful resumés. They seem to be fairly different in the personality department though.

Peters comes off like the boss who'll frame his criticism in more constructive terms while Dodds seems more like the type to say "listen up and I'm gonna explain to you why you're bad at your job".

I want an aggressive gm, someone that will tail gate you if your driving slow in the left lane  that type of gm

That's probably more Ed Dodds than Adam Peters.

I'd take either one though. They're both very good at their jobs, just different.

Kinda find myself wondering between Peters and Dodds, which one would David Tepper prefer?

Dodds has a "work" personality a lot like Tepper did in the financial world. It's an all go, no quit, balls to the wall, "not good enough until it's the best" sort of mentality. And he expects everyone working for him to be the same way.

Peters is more like the quiet, analytical guy, the one who looks and sounds like he knows everything about everything and can answer any question you ask like an expert. He's also got some background working with analytics in San Francisco, something Tepper would appreciate.

Granted, the choice could very easily be one of the other candidates, but I genuinely feel like one of these two guys would be the best for the job.

    • Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.
    • A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.    
    • You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
