I keep checking the site and twitter for any announcement, but it's weird that they haven't yet, especially since it's more convenient on Zoom. Nick Caserio was the next day, so not sure why this hasn't happened yet?

Are they maybe postponing it til next week since all these other teams are announcing hires and spamming the news feed? *shrug* it's possible.

The first press conference sets the tone for the team and fanbase. Rhule's was amazing, so he's got a lot to live up to :)

That's a longer way than I expected.

Complicated logistics?

I would imagine unfinished business with the Seahawks. It isn't like a player moving. He likely needs to finish season grades on his players, hand off responsibilities, etc. A week is actually a pretty impressive amount of time.

I ask because I've seen quicker pressers.

Now with that said, a lot of the other guys weren't moving from one side of the country to the other.

there are a few things going on this week that could - how do you say - distract from the new GM hire. Like, maybe in DC

You mean like their GM interviews? :thinking:

 

(I gotcha; valid point and no, I hadn't thought about that; probably wouldn't have)

MLK on Monday - inauguration on Wednesday - an opportunity for disruption all week.... new GM interview can wait a few days. 

Edit: I meant presser not interview. This is about our guy. My bad

      Morgan & Canales

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      I really like the way this team is trending. Morgan and Canales rookie campaign saw them do some questionable picks but, they also did some really good things. Especially addressing the offensive line.  Young had such a disastrous rookie season where his confidence was nowhere to be seen.  You can attribute part of this to a terrible offensive line.  So, we focused on the O-line.   We then brought in several defensive free agents that were supposed to compliment Brown.  Once Brown went down those players could not hold the line.  2025 we focused on defense in Free Agency and brought in several good players.  We then added more talent in the draft.  I think we have competition in several areas where Vets are not guaranteed to be starters.  Our offensive line is pretty set with some good backups.  Our defensive line is going to be a war for who comes out to be the starters.  All in All, we are leaps and bounds much better than 2023 roster.  Canales made some rookie head coach mistakes but grew as the season progressed.  He got our QB, who was starting to look like a huge bust, playing with confidence and poise.  Now it appears Young is moving upwards.  Maybe he is a QB whisperer.  After Young started to play better our offense was fun to watch.  Morgan knows football and knows what he wants in his players.  It appears to me that not only are these players he's drafted really good and got great value for them, but they are also high motor, intense players. Our defense, in the past, was always the key to our success.  I think Morgan is building a great defense. I know it is too soon to tell but I believe we may have a tandem that will be around a long time.  It would be nice to see Morgan/Canales be in the same class as Lynch/Shanahan and Beane/McDermott.   I know many Huddlers will overreact, but I truly believe we have a tandem that will be around a long time. TIME WILL TELL. Go Panthers

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      I am actually really excited about this kid. One thing that really jumped off watching his highlights was he almost is too fast or almost over pursues. You can get away with that stuff in college but the NFL these guys are stronger and more "slippery".  Little things that can be corrected but he seems to have a motor which is always a plus!

      Many teams looked at the drop-off as a reason not to select him in the first round.  Going into the 2024 season he was listed as a potential first round pick.  Morgan, IMO, based our pick on what he did in 2023 and expects him to play at the weight he played at Purdue. Morgan did this twice in this draft.  Scourton and Evans.  saw one stat on Evans that he had 58 ypg in one of his previous seasons.  Plus Notre Dame has a history of good TEs that can catch and block. Canales will 3 good TEs that all will see time on the field.
