So let me get this straight. They didn’t feel comfortable offering Wilks a position because they interviewed him for a head coaching position yet were interviewing Evero after interviewing him for HC position. I totally gets Wilks stance to move on but from a Panthers perspective that can’t look to good for his lawsuit

And to add I’m definitely on board with the Evero hire

Wilkes was the head coach here in an interim capacity. That’s what made it weird.

This ^^^ it would be asking Wilks to accept a demotion of sorts. I also get the feeling that Tepper wants to take things in a different direction - defense included. And while the optics may be a little fishy from a legal standpoint, based on the inconsistencies we’ve seen - and the possibilities with the young core players - you can’t really blame him.

Trust me I get it.. but to publicly make that statement of not offering him a position for that sole purpose and to double back on Evero.. again to me just doesn’t help the case

For Evero, it's a promotion.

For Wilks, it would have been a demotion.

Re: Proehl

Looked up Beebe and apparently he's the head coach at a small private college in Illinois.

Not a problem and this is easily fixed.  1. Tepper looks under sofa tonight for spare change, 2. Tepper buys out the XFL team tomorrow, 3. Ricky becomes Panthers WR position coach on Monday, 4. 2 best players and Ricky’s son from XFL team signed to Panthers practice squad on Tuesday.  Easy, peasy…

IF (huge "if") we were to land Evero and one of the Philly names being kicked about, it would be hard for Wilks fanboys to be mad. 

Reich + BJ/Patullo + Duce + Evero + Evero's assistants >>> Wilks + BJ + Holcomb 

We get the experience, an offensive-focused coaching staff instead of a defensive-focused HC and a HC candidate for a DC. 

Dave Tepper, let's make this happen!! ---- and change the turf back to grass.

I wonder if Reggie Wayne is more committed to Reich or the Colts? He was a volunteer WR advisor for a few years declining coaching opportunities there. Joined Reichs staff in 2022 and was real disappointed when Reich was fired…

Found this article on Wayne looking comfortable in that role last year at TC. Much like Duce, I like the fire and buy-in from the players….

Reich seems to inspire an insane amount of loyalty. Sirianni went off on one with the media when the Eagles beat the Colts this year.

I honestly think Ginn was who he always was, he just had more opportunities with us because we were so bad at WR. Most teams have others guys they'd rather target than a guy only catching 45% of his targets.

Ginn took the top off of defences - something we've never replaced.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
