Gettleman had the most success.

Hurney was terrible.

Fitterer is still an incomplete.

Agree with this - but GM is more than just making moves.. it's handling the roster and the way Nipple-Shorts did D.Will, Smitty, J.No24 cannot be overlooked.. he pissed fans and players off with how he moved and players on other teams saw that.. he might have had some good drafts and brought in some decent vets but leveraged our future at the same time and we paid dearly for it..

I am gonna say Gettleman was the worst simply because I feel like fewer of his mistakes were because of doing what his boss told him to do. They were his mistakes.

These others… they listen to the bosses more. Pretty sure. 
I went with Hurney because no way I could choose Fitterer over him. It is q moot question anyway, they left D) none of the above, off the poll.

Now that I think about it, Hurney was both the best and the worst.  Duality of man.

Agreed. His best was the best and his worst was the worst.

 

Overall worst at the moment is Gettleman, pretty obviously. I will say that Fitterer may end up eclipsing him as the worst of our franchise history depending on the next couple of seasons.

Not you specifically, yours was just the first one to make me want to respond.

I don't know if this is a Panthers thing, or not, but this weird obsession with "drafting star players" and absolutely caring more about the players than winning seasons is very strange to me.

Marty gave us a BUNCH of names to cheer on, and a BUNCH of losing seasons.  I'd rather not know a single player on the roster and win, than have TD, Luke, Olsen, Cam, CMC, Norman, Smith and Peppers out there losing season after season.

 

Fair enough. But we have to understand,  GMs build the roster and coaches coach the roster to wins. The team philosophy is based off the coach. We saw under more than 1 GM that we were never gonna win anything under Ron Rivera as coach. Hurney gave the guy 2 mvp HOFs on both sides of the ball and he only produced 3 winning seasons. The losing seasons cant be all on him.

If I was the owner of any team at this time I would like to know who is available that has a proven track record as a GM and has drafted successfully. I never hear anyone mention that when the discussion turns to firing our current GM.  Do you hire someone that you think might make a good GM with no experience? I think of that more often than I look back at past GM’s of the Panthers.

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
