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.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
