 Not trading Burns is looking like a real good idea now with Evero being brought in

It almost feels like someone in the Front Office has said "your best player on defence is Burns - build the system around his skillset". 

Let's see if he thrives as an OLB in a 3-4, there's no reason he shouldn't.

Wonder if Luke wants to be involved more now?   Seems like he would be a natural fit with Evero.

Only thing I see with that, is he looked lost in 3-4 during his last year. Idk if he'd be good fit as LB coach, which is where most people would peg him. I do think he'd be a great coach but would have to figure out where is the best spot for him.

To be fair, that was his choice.

Nobody ever expected him to be mistake free, but those were pretty bad choices.

Yeah. I was giving him credit for finally learning from a few rough years. He could have tossed Hurney when he got rid of Rivera so I really don't get whatever this take is

You mean like he always has? But he didn't have as good of football minded people around him?

I'm sorry, but anybody who expected Tepper to be this no mistake making person, when we still had hurney on staff, is just a t lying to themselves.  

Who forced Tepper to keep Hurney when he fired Rivera?

He was learning.  It's not like he had anybody else to learn on at the time. 

It's easy from a fan perspective,  to tell him to blow uo the front office, and rebuild it. When he didn't know his ass from his pecker? 

I can easily argue he did the best he could with what he had. When he had the opportunity to change, and upgrade from the experience he had acquired, he did. That eventually led us to this.

    • Fug Em!   Lil bastard was milking injuries most of his time here. The moment he leaves he's all of a sudden a workhorse RB and a MVP candidate.   *Poo me up I'm a big boy I can handle it.
    • Another source: NFL Rumors: Hakeem Butler to Visit Panthers After UFL Success, Wade Phillips' Praise ZACH BACHAR JUNE 10, 2024 The Carolina Panthers are expected to conduct a workout with UFL wide receiver Hakeem Butler, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Butler recorded a league-leading 652 receiving yards as a member of the St. Louis Battlehawks. He was previously a fourth-round draft pick by the Arizona Cardinals in 2019. After the Battlehawks were defeated by the San Antonio Brahmas in the XFL Conference title game, Brahmas head coach and longtime NFL coach Wade Phillips told the receiver that "I'm going to tell everybody in the NFL that I talk to that you need to be playing," via Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk. Despite the loss by St. Louis, Butler still hauled in six receptions for a team-high 59 receiving yards. The 28-year-old was named the 2024 UFL Offensive Player of the Year, as he was one of only two wideouts to have multiple games with at least 100 receiving yards. While the Panthers added Diontae Johnson and first-round rookie Xavier Legette to their wide receiver room in the offseason, they could still use some depth in the form of Butler. Carolina isn't opposed to picking up former UFL players, as Rapoport revealed on Thursday that the team is also "expected" to sign All-UFL receiver Daewood Davis. Although Butler was selected by the Cardinals in the 2019 draft, he did not play as a rookie due to a hand injury and only appeared in two regular-season games as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2020. He did not record a catch. Butler signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers during the 2023 offseason, although he ultimately didn't make the team's regular-season roster. At 6'5", he has the frame to potentially make an impact in training camp and earn a shot at making Carolina's 53-man roster. If his workout goes well with the Panthers, Butler could give himself another chance to possibly return to the NFL.
