Now we see why he never got Cam a good OC. Just didn't know how trash the one he had was .. lol

Still can't believe Panthers didn't take the local guy QB that had lots of hype the yr before.... Oh well

We have Young no so it's all good.  Hope nothing but the best for Howell, but Young is the better prospect IMO.

I was referring to the GM that went along with it, Fitt

Oh gotcha.  I guess it's hard to tell since he didn't have roster control.  From the way he is gutting Rhule's roster, I would assume he didn't agree with many of the players Rhule wanted but who knows.

It could simply be the these guys are not quite good enough to play the positions the way this staff needs them to. Or they are just not very good at what they can do. I'm not losing any sleep over it. Hate it for those who are cut though.

Oh I kind of like it for the team.  They are trying to solidify some depth.  It just shows me Fitt wasn't as high on these players as Rhule may have been.

I'm withholding my opinion on Fitterer for the time being.  There's a lot of bad moves that are unaccounted for during that era. The 2022 draft and offseason leading up to it is still murky as to who called the shots in my mind. Time will tell.

There are a lot of skill sets involved in coaching, some more important than others depending on what position you hold. For a head coach, talent evaluation is kind of an important one.

There were certainly things To was good at, but that just wasn't one of them.

And Rivera is about average at it for an NFL head coach.  The reality is that most NFL coaches have some big misses and Rivera is no exception to that.

Nah, he is still here

Along with the person who hired him. And hired Rhule. And kept Rivera. And kept Hurney. And tried to interview a GM candidate from the Eagles while already having a GM in Hurney (which isn’t allowed and he got laughed at).

lol

can’t make this poo up.

I get it we have to be optimistic because we are stuck with him, but god damn I don’t get being mad about certain inept staff but not criticizing or deflect blame from the mofo that hired their dumbasses.

im not mad at the idiot employees trying to do their best, it’s the boss who should’ve known better and at least realized when they don’t know better and are incapable

lord help us

I remember reading during the Rhule era, either a media guy or someone in the league, that their opinion was that we had a lot of players starting for us that wouldn’t on other teams. 
Our team was so horribly constructed as a NFL team.

    • I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.  
    • Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
