Love the hire...Also consider  the fact Frank isn't exactly a young man anymore. So we have two potential head coach replacements when he decides to step away.

Eh, nice thought, but not really logical lol

If Reich is successful enough as our coach to be here until he retires, which would probably 10-12 years away, then neither of the new coordinators (and likely Stately as well) will be here for that long, they'd have already gotten HC jobs long before then.

Agreed. Great situation for Bienemey to prove himself.

People are either gonna be proven right or look really dumb.

Best part is he gets to pair with a fellow great coordinator who was passed over a million times for HC gigs until we took a shot on him. 

He gets (hopefully) full control of the offense and can learn from the forever a bridesmaid turned 2 time coach of year. 
 

Not a bad landing spot. Minus the lack of QB talent.

We are so set up for success for the next few years....

Evero and Brown are locked in, but have capable replacements that should be able to take over in two years. Wash could be back in play for a second tour as an NFL DC and Duce will probably take over at OC. 

I cannot wait to see what these coaches can do together. They are like Voltron and stronger as the sum of their parts. Very balanced between experience, knowledge, youth, ingenuity and connectability. 

I think the NFL is already talking about how different we are going to be and fearing what's about to come out of the QC.

And for all of those that needed that warm and fuzzy "local ties/Carolinas native" filler, Reich has that covered too....and Capers....and Duce.....and McCown.

It's important to remember that minority coaches have to be on a team's staff for two full seasons for the comp pick to be awarded. If we lose both Brown and Evero after one season then that likely means the team had a really good year though. 

Good point - I thought it was just one season.

An OC that has never called plays - bold strategy, Cotton.

 

Kyle Shanahan had never called plays anywhere before he became an OC in NFL. 

Shane Steichen had never called plays anywhere before he became an OC in NFL. 

Sean McVay had never called plays anywhere before he became an OC in NFL. 

MIke McDaniel had never called plays anywhere before he became an OC in NFL. 

 

But...

 

Thomas Brown has 3 years experience as on offensive coordinator and play caller at Miami.

 

 

Does anyone read the linked articles or bios of these guys?

    • I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?
    • LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.  
    • After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
