Scouting News and Updates

[Mr. Scot]

For those who follow this sort of thing, Stratton tends to be the best source for news.

And yeah it's the season for this sort of thing

I don’t get it. Are they being tongue in cheek or not? I assume it’s a good time to move.

They did say there’s no cap on staff Teppers about to cut another check.

Post draft is when a lot of scouting types either don't get their contracts renewed or just get straight up fired.

Teams with new GMs or head coaches tend to have more turnover than others.

Tidbit from Albert Breer from the other thread...

Young’s 30 visit was scheduled for April 11, and there’d be no dinner on the Monday night before. The quarterback was delayed flying into Charlotte, and scouting intern Caden McCloughan, son of former Washington and San Francisco GM Scot McCloughan, picked him at the airport between midnight and 1 a.m. McCloughan reported back to Fitterer that Young, upon arrival, was all smiles—thankful and respectful, and looking forward to the next day.

If you don't remember the name, Scot McCloughan was a scouting guy with the Seahawks who was said to have a big part in the phenomenal draft that helped build the fabled Legion of Boom.

He would later end up as GM of the then Redskins and proceed to drink himself out of the job.

McCloughan was said to have a scary good ability for scouting talent. He just let his personal issues get in the way.

If he could get those things under control though, he'd be an asset to any team's scouting department.

That plus his prayer relationship to our top two personnel people is why I find it interesting that his son is an intern with us.

These jobs are straight nepotism/who you know. Practically impossible to break in organically. Respect to the few that have.

I've read stories on Jeff Ireland, Brandon Beane and others. Some of them were literally part of football as children.

There's still nobody listed

Now with that said, the special forces guy they hired isn't listed on the staff page either.

Maybe they just haven't updated the website yet.

@Basbear

Can't find anything official on it, but Rhule's guy Jeremy Scott still lists himself as the Panthers strength and conditioning coach online and is still retweeting Panthers content even as of April 20th.

His link is @JScottStrength If you wanna check it out.

bless MR scot, this is super important and it feels like ..... the whole frank group doesnt feel the same. NOT a fan of Scotts........

[Mr. Scot]

His being a longtime Eagles scout would make me think he and Reich are mutually familiar

Good scouts are nice to have.
