Front office personnel being replaced shortly after the hiring of a new GM? What about this seems odd?

Just seems like bad business to replace people just to replace them. 

Unless there is a lack of performance. But what are the odds after so many years someone would have a performance dip?

It sucks to lose an old Panther like Carrier. But if it is for the best of the organization, so be it.

 

I think I might understand a little better after looking up what he was doing now.

From the Panthers media guide:

In his role, Carrier works with all facets of the football operations, consulting with general manager Marty Hurney on all football-related topics, including player evaluations, staff makeup and team direction. He attends events throughout the calendar year to interact with draft-eligible players and assess their team fit.

Yeah...Those duties are gonna belong to somebody Rhule and Fitterer hire.

Yep. It is what it is. 

He'll always be a Panther, at the end of the day.

Last I'd seen, he had a role assisting players with planning out their lives after and outside of football and such.

Moving into a personnel related role probably hurt him once changes started being made.

Wonder where he might get a job?

Any word on they replacements? Seems timing is odd, I mean with this weird scouting stuff, you'd think to keep everyone with a clue on staff til after the draft. They must could not be trusted, I know Carrier was basically Herniay right hand man. 

Mark ALlen form Seahawks is a name to watch, love to add him. Honestly this just made Fitererereers; job harder.

Honestly, these aren't necessarily positions that require a replacement.

I'd imagine what Carrier did will be taken over by one of Rhule's people (Sean Padden, maybe). The logistics guy would probably just be someone internal.

I do find an interesting though that we're churning the front office staff. I wasn't sure if they were going to do that now or maybe wait until after the draft. 

Possible any higher level changes might not come till later.

Sounds like he was just around the Hurndog too much.

I've said before the people I'm watching most closely are Jeff Morrow and Matt Allen.

Morrow holds the same title as Pat Stewart, just with "executive" in front of it. Seems redundant, and I kinda doubt they're gonna let go of Stewart.

Matt Allen? Well, he's Jerry Richardson's grandson. I don't know how good he is it is job, but unless he's really good it won't be terribly surprising if he gets replaced as Director of Pro Personnel.

    • You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.
    • I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.
    • Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
