Word was they were trying to keep him.

He may have been on an expired contract though. Hard to say.

The Texans HC he was working under got canned.  So who knows if the new guy would have kept him or not.

I think the comfort level with OC McAdoo (who he worked with for many years at Green Bay) was a big part of Campen's move to Carolina.

the mcadoo connection might have been the trick. job taken despite having to work for a guy that couldn't tell his ass from a doorknob.

This is great news for Brady Christensen and Deonte Brown.   The team is finally going to see what these two can become.

Also I wouldn't be surprised if the team got better play from Cameron Erving and Pat Elflein (though that's not saying much).  Maybe these two can become competent backups or spot starters now ?

ok....now grab these guys:

Terron Armstead - pay him whatever

Ryan Jensen (option a) or Ben Jones (option b) - would be totally happy with either

Norwell - just bring him home.

do this and then we can talk about getting a QB in the first round. wouldn't need to worry about not having picks in the next couple rounds.

Rhule might have been NFL naive when he took over the Panthers but I don't think he's completely stupid.   If he has any self-awareness at all, Rhule must have known he needed more experienced guys to help him lead the team next season.  

I also wouldn't be surprised if his boss Tepper nudged him in that direction as well.  

I believe all your points may have played a factor in Rhule's "awakening".  McAdoo's personal contacts/established relationships within the league likely didn't hurt either.

    • Yeah. As a wild card team. Washington won the division at 10-6.
    • no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.
    • Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
