Ironic...Gettleman came here to clean up Hurney's mess, then he goes off to the Giants to create his own mess that their new GM has to come in and clean up.  The circle of life.  Poor Joe Schoen has his work cut out for him...what a disaster Gettleman was in NY.

With how it ended, Im too honest- Gettleman was worse than Herniay. No idea what happen, but he over-spent and drafted very poorly while giants GM. During his giant era, no team had better draft value in terms of picks. He wasted them on #2Barkley, #6Jones, #30Baker, and #33Hernandez. Just the whole group is awful, some even traded before bustin. First rounder Baker was cut year two, he traded(i think) a second to move up for him. Even talks of trading last years first rounder koney...... Even his 2-4 round picks were terrible. His free agent signing are the same or worse. They are in cap hell too. Thats bad whens theres no talent.....At least herniay yo-yo'd win seasons loss seasons, nyc dave was just a loser and that division was begging to be won.

It's hard to argue against the success of Gettleman's tenure here; his run as the Panthers' GM was objectively much more successful than Hurney's.  But if you're able to evaluate his individual performance as GM within the scope of his actual role, it gets a little more muddied.  People discredit Hurney's 1st round picks and say it's so easy to draft superstars in the 1st round, in particular the top 10...and yet look at those 1st round picks you've highlighted lol.  Also if you evaluate their entire body of work as an NFL GM, Hurney never had anywhere close to as bad of a 4-year stretch as Gettleman's in NY (19-46 overall).

I absolutely believe that Gettleman being hampered by our abysmal salary cap and not being able to afford to shop at Tiffany's was a blessing in disguise.  It seems like with the Panthers and Giants, the more money and flexibility Gettleman had, the more harm he did to his team.  His one big money FA signing for the Panthers?  Matt Kalil.

But yeah they both sucked, bottom line.

Yea panther Dave > Herniay

NYG&panther Dave <<< Herniay

Ruin them and had no success in a weak division. Panthers got awful old right after Dave got fired.....thats partly on him(tho he wanted to get rid of TD and olsen and that was right, 100% as it pains). NYG are just in awful shape and no reason for that to be. Again they had decent/good cap space and the best draft capital in the league. He failed both and left them without talent, no QB, and in the bloodly red. His WR choices should got him kicked out of USA.... Picked the wrong hawg hollies- had the choice pick of LTs and thus far picked the worse one(4th overall btw). 

Im enjoying both Finssserererers drafts and one of his FA hauls. Love how modern and aggressive he is. Dave and Herniay refused to do busniess with certain teams/GM....not the same the new guy.

DG was so bad it made Hurney look good to Richardson.

Yeah he was a good zone CB in his prime but with Horn, Henderson, and yeah even Donte Jackson we're built to run a man scheme

I am really really excited to see what this group of three can do if they are all healthy.

He didn't wash out. He was cut because of his cap hit.

He wouldn't have been a cap casualty of he was worth the money or a restructuring. He was not. I.E washed up. I'm sure he will probably do well with Rivera again. He's never been elite but he can be a reliable CB in a zone system.

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      By Kentucky Panther · Posted

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
