Still no word from anyone on Offensive Line Coach candidates. And mind you, there are some good ones available. Juan Castillo, Mike Munchak and James Campen to name a few.

There's been speculation that they want to hire an OC first, but then there's also no word on who'll be coaching the defensive line either (Bill Kollar from the Broncos would be a good one in this spot) and we're certainty not making any changes at DC.

Mind you, this could be one of those times where nothing gets said until one day they suddenly announce the hire. If that's the case, I wouldn't be surprised if the jobs went to internal candidates.

Speaking of the OC, anyone else notice the three names that were initially floated as having our interest never materialized?

Neither Bill O'Brien, Jay Gruden nor Kevin O'Connell have even been mentioned in relation to the Panthers since the initial speculation. Doesn't sound like Pep Hamilton is looking this way either.

First guess? They might not be interested or may have better options (heaven knows O'Connell does) but it also makes you wonder if the stories were bullsh-t to begin with.

It may have just been the media throwing out some reasonable options when they really needed to be looking at former grad assistants at Temple and Baylor.

Went back and looked. The initial tweet was from Schefter citing "league sources".

I recall there being talk from Panthers media about targeting former head coaches, but that sure hasn't panned out. Neither has the "wide search" that Rhule promised (at least not yet).

This may be the last place anyone worth a damn might want to come.

      NHL Olympics Thread (Or just Olympics in general)

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Dude, I think I might be having Jarvy withdrawals... I ripped the sleeves off of all of my t-shirts in my sleep last night. Every bite of my Alpha-Bita cereal spelled Seth, this morning. And, I took 7 naps before lunch. I'm losing it guys! Jarvy's Jaunty Band of Jaggoffs are getting more play than he is... smh Team Canada doesn't treasure Jarvis the way he deserves. He should take his band down to Liechtenstein, get a bag of passports, and start his own Olympic team! The raw animal magnetism of Jarvilicious will bring in a handful of NHLers on its own. And, since the IOC believes in collective punishment, he could have his pick of the rookies. Then, just fill out the rest of the roster with the maple blooded great white northerners who couldn't make the top squad. Can't trust this assembled awesomery to just any old Liechtensteinien with a clipboard and a whistle. Gotta bring in a legend worthy of this gold medal gambit. A hockey HOFer with the balls to buck the system and the aura to match our maverick. Huere geil, Vaduz!!! 2030 Gold Medal guaranteed!

      NFLTR: Panthers Offseason:Team Needs, pending free agents, draft picks

      Tennessee isn't trading a QB on a 2nd round contract that has starting experience.  That's bad business.

      OT is the top priority as it is both an immediate and future need.  I wouldn't be past trading up slightly to get the guy we want.  You need that rookie contract right now.  Icky is a dead 17.5 million for the season.  Morton is 20+ mil for the season, Hunt is 20+ mil for the season.  There needs to be forward thinking regarding the future.   Caleb Lomu is a left Tackle, he's a solid prospect, he may be the best pick for us now and in the future.  I would seriously consider cutting Hunt after 2026, and let Lomu and Icky fight for the LT job, loser moves inside.  Icky's future may be at guard after this injury anyway.  If Damien Lewis keeps up his level of play he will need to be paid sooner rather than later.  Yosh and BC can be our top two depth OL at an affordable price.  You will need to look at OT again in 2027. Getting an EDGE for the sake of getting an EDGE outside of the top 10 is pretty risky.  I wouldn't be against eyeing someone like Cashius Howell, Derrick Moore, or TJ Parker in the 2nd (even if we trade a future pick to move up) or DDS in the third. I'd love to see us try to sign both Leo Chenal and Matt Millano in FA.   Chenal for the blitzing element we are missing from our LB corps and Millano for his elite coverage.  They could both work in tandem.  Remember, our FO has deep ties to both KC and Buffalo. I love thinking about the draft, but until Free Agency hits, we are clueless.  Looking at the strength of FA and the draft, OL is priority #1, LB #2, and EDGE #3.  We know what happens to Bryce when protection falls apart.
