Panthers Confidential - A Look Into the Panthers Offseason

Recommended Posts

I really liked the rapport between Rhule & Fitterer.  Had to keep reminding myself Fitterer was very new.  He seemed like a natural and so comfortable in his first draft with the team, first draft as a GM.  The calm, cool & collected atmosphere surprised me a bit.  I expected a bit more tension during the trade downs on Night 2 as guys we liked got picked, but they seemed very confident in their plan.  I like it.  (Obviously we didn't see everything.... but still, the chemistry seems real and I like the sense of their being a clear plan and confidence in the plan from all involved.)

I was surprised by the emotion Jaycee showed stepping onto the field and seeing the Jumbotron.  As the son of an NFL player, groomed for the NFL, I expected him to maybe take it for granted a bit, but he didn't.  And seeing Joe Horn in Panthers gear never gets old!  I love the fact that we kept the Saints from getting Jaycee!

I like tepper the most with his  " BEST OFFER!, ONLY THE BEST OFFER!!"....."Dont call with negative point offers" . Shame on anyone saying he doesnt care and/or his focus is on soccer/else where. 

 

I need that two hands up Rhule cerebration.  Please

Evan Cooper comes to the Panthers as the cornerbacks coach after spending the past three seasons on head coach Matt Rhule's staff at Baylor. Most recently, Cooper spent the last two years serving as an assistant cornerbacks coach for the Bears, as well as the team's recruiting coordinator

Is it just me or did Joe Horn seem torn.  While he was happy for his son it looked like he could spit nails that Carolina took him when his JC got the call. 

surely he understood that NO wanted him, and prolly Joe himself wanted it also

    • I'd rather not have Burns and draft good edge rushers. He wasn't worth the contract he got for a dude that could only rush the passer and frankly did a terrible job of it for us because whenever he did beat his blocker, he would whiff on the QB. Congrats to him for actually being able to wrap up the QB this year - it's the first time he has consistently been able to do it. The amount of teams that ran right at him while he was with us shows that teams realized he was an undersized edge and could get pushed backwards several yards on run plays. Having Dexter Lawrence next to you helps mask that problem
    • I mean, some of y'all keep on saying that, but the fact is is that he is the only Giant feasting. Burns is just better than many of us thought, myself included. Sometimes it just takes guys time to get to the top of their game, that's why I'm going to give our rookies a lot of grace. It might be a couple of years before they hit their stride (though it didn't take Burns that long). But I have been disappointed. Moreover, I suspect that they all might benefit by migrating to  a 4-3 base.  But Burns is what he is. It was ultimately bad timing IMO. After Scott Fitterer failed to take the two firsts, things were destined to go downhill. I think we should've kept Clowney for another year or so more than Burns, but it's all been fûcked up anyway, so nobody was probably going to make that much of a difference.
