 The interesting note is the OP confirmation w/ the added news of the contract language.  It's always been his show.

It’s generally been assumed Rhule has always had “final say”…

…but the original poster has”confirmed” nothing — neither he nor Alexander have seen the contract and they have no idea what kind of “language” it contains.

Except that Rhule himself has talked about things being written into contracts, and the interview itself has Rhule indicating that it was talked about during Fitterer's intro press conference (which I haven't re-watched).

Quote

Rhule confirmed Friday that, technically, he has final say over the team's roster. But he also made it clear that he's not looking at new general manager Scott Fitterer as a subordinate, either.

"I think in terms of on the contract, a lot of those things probably rest with me," Rhule said. "But that's not something I'm real interested in. I told you guys from the very beginning, . . . I think it's kind of a formality.

"Scott's here to run the personnel. He's here to build the roster. He's here to establish the draft process. I think some things are written into the contract, but I think we're going to work collaboratively and work together."

I believe Rhule does have “final say”…

…but neither Alexander nor Ellis have brought anything new to the table to “confirm” it.

Simply a dead horse beating exercise for clicks… 😏

Very discouraging. So, if Rhule thinks trading away all our picks to get Kurt Cousins or Jimmy G will save him, he can do it and nobody can stop him unless Tepper fires him.

Fitterer is the one who puts the chips on the table. If he doesn't want it on the table, it won't happen. He just can't cut players or sign players unless Rhule agrees. So, for anything to happen Rhule and Fitterer need to agree. That's why everything is moving so slow with personnel changes.

      Jaire Alexander Released

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      The #Panthers explored the possibility of adding Jaire Alexander, but there was never an offer made, a league source told @theobserver.   https://x.com/mike_e_kaye/status/1935436577649401872?s=46

      Young, been named Top Riser for 2025

      Yes I agree, the future RT could easily be christ. When he shocking re-signed here for the cheap, he said part of the reason was the OL coaching staff.  I've already thought too much about 2026. The RT has all the options, including resigning Motown. I was never a big fan, but he's solid and peptides and stem cells can fix a gippy knee. If he makes it though this year and wants to return, why not for 2 years 16 million?? Or like you said give the job to Christ or draft your RT...... that I feel is the best current method. With both OGs in the 20 million per cap range and Icky......ooooooooooo boy he could be the first 30 million per OLmen in NFL history. That's a huge portion of cap space for the OL, which I agree with, but in order to offset those 20 and 30 million deals... you need cheap rookie contracts. (unless Motown would take a huge pay cut and whoever the C will be).  This is the deepest OL I can recall in Panthers history.  I believe Morgan should try and trade either Kingston or Zavala.  I didn't even talk about Yosh, Tarquin, or Walton. Yosh is same age as christ and why not him as RT after good swing tackle years? Tarquin is a UDFA on the prayer program, 150,000 in guarantees and why not him in 2026? Walton seems to be a OL coach favorite, he followed the Tampa Bay staff here after 2 years there and add in one year here, he's stuck around for some reason. I think they need to spend very light on RT and Panthers have lots of options, I love it.
