The presumption is Rhule has final say.

Org chart:

 Tepper > Rhule > Fitterer/GM > Assistant GM

----------------------------

If Rhule really does have final say the GM and Asst. GM are really serving in senior scouting/analytical roles...

...fancy titles but their responsibilities don't correlate with those who have similar titles at other NFL franchises who are employing the "traditional" (archaic) NFL model.

Actually, per Rhule's own words, Fitterer ran the draft and free agency processes. Which makes sense because that's kind of, you know, his job.

Also according to both Rhule and Gantt, David Tepper stays out of the football decisions and lets his coach and GM do what they were hired to do.

And I happen to think that's great 😁

Rhule has final say, not "the GM".  (as per other poster)

Absolutely nothing was said about Tepper as it goes to "football decisions".

Nobody cares what you think.

Since when does the HC have the say. The GM is the one who does the hiring/firing and that also includes the hiring/firing of HC position as well. Rhule don't have any say in the matter but he can recommend someone and that is it.

Discussion of Matt Rhule's interview with Rich Eisen wherein he gives the quote, "Dave leaves the football stuff to me and Scott" can be found here.

Likewise, here's a quote from Darin Gantt's article about draft night in the Panthers war room.

Tepper's an active participant in the process. Not in terms of this player or that guy, but making sure every one in the room is taking the right steps to every decision.

Again, these are from people actually connected with the team, not internet guys who watch Showtime.

"Coach centric" is probably a better description. 

Our front office is modeled after the Seahawks, where Pete Carroll has final say.

Rhule has made it pretty clear that he's not a dictator though. Scott Fitterer runs the personnel processes and he ran the draft, though Rhule and the coaching staff helped set up the draft board.

It's not like Belichick.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
