Rhule set to appear on WFNZ Thursday morning

[BurnNChinn]

So don’t know if anyone caught this but near 17:50 mark of the interview he’s talking about BC and this upcoming draft. He says whatever Panthers decide to do at #6 in the draft. Is that me or should he be saying who we decide to take in this years draft?

Nah he is passing blame.  He did that a few times in the interview.  It wasnt conspicuous.

In case you are out of the area and didn't hear the interview, he's what Rhule said about Slater.

 

As @Zod said, I too, am less confident in Rhule than I was yesterday.

To be fair and honest, he also said something that is missing from the quote. He said that because Slater had missed the prior year and he did not have the ideal measurable they were not comfortable taking him ahead of Penai or Jaycee. He did not say that they would not have taken Slater if the other two were not there.

Dude is getting absolutely roasted for this comment right now. As he should be.

Also I forgot Rhule said this and nobody is saying it.  In regards to the draft if there is a plug and play guy all star type at 6 (spoiler alert there will be) BC would not hinder the pick.  He said BC can move to guard or CENTER.  I thought that was telling

He said it was too high for a guard.  So fug him

I have trouble thinking anything Rhule says is honest/transparent at this point. Dude has zero credibility.

Again, I have no clue what this moron was thinking when he said that.  That is literally the worst possible answer he could have given.

People seem to be leaving this part out of the thread.

I like that he admitted making a mistake with how he played BC but I also liked how he said he didn't want to David Carr BC.

Honestly its so bad and getting so much national attention from players and personel it's embarrassing. It is all over my twitter feed from national reporters and entities.

As soon as I heard it and posted it I figured people were going to have a field day with it.  Hopefully it shames the motherfuger into drafting a tackle at 6

He would have cut Sam Mills.  Seriously-as a player, I imagine that he was told things like, "you are too small, too short, too slow, etc."  He now applies these idealistic measurables to players and it is blinding him.

Matt Rhule and Marty Hurney are at opposite ends of the spectrum on this.

Rhule is unable to see that certain players who don't fit the ideal "checkboxes" often have intangibles and other factors that make them very good players.

By contrast, Marty looked at non-ideal players and saw those intangibles and other factors when they weren't actually there.
