There was a pretty big change on that front though (a fired coach).

Is there a change like that you can anticipate happening now?

I’m just saying everything is very fluid. Burns may want too much money for example. Especially after hearing what they turned down for him.

I think Fitterer put it in perspective last week during the press conference.  If you trade up and mortgage your future, you better have really strong conviction about the QB you're draft.  I honestly think only CJ Stroud is the pick that would warrant that risk.

Imagine we trade up to #1 for AR-15.

I'd rather do something to keep my job now even if it means maybe get fired in two years versus getting fired now for not doing the thing.

He is going to.keep swinging for homeruns. At least that is what he said. He will likely cover his bases by moving up for a rookie and getting a vet or two as well. If you cover your bases and do what Tepper wants you dont have to worry about getting fired.

Yeah, starting to think the only way we would get AR would be at 9.

This may have already been discussed in one of the many QB threads but I wonder how much stock we can put into the AR talk.

 

It seems odd that we’re apparently such an open book in regards to him and Levis when our coaching search was kept under wraps so well. 
 

I understand this is different as there are many more people involved (scouts, etc) but do wonder how much can be believed.

Yeah the coaching stuff is behind closed doors. I can't imagine how much speculation and opinion is shared between scouts and journalists at the combine. It's all BS til we actually get to Pro Day visits and 30 visits, then it could still be some bluffing going on about who or who not we visit with

I'd rather do the right thing so when I apply for future NFL GM jobs I can say "well I didn't cripple my last franchise in a desperate attempt to save my job".

You want to do nothing like we have done ever since Cam has left. It’s worked great so far. Makes sense…

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By Carolina Cajun · Posted

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
