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.

      Yea when teams see a gun charge they rightly pause but this seems like a big misunderstanding.

      D-Mo on FA & some of my general thoughts

      Sorry man you lost me at "Teppers have evolved as owners". Limped into playoffs at 8-9 not even above .500 Tepper is trash as an owner bro and that's not even a discussion at this point. 37-83 w/l ratio. Nuff said.... Morgan tho, he's cooking and it ain't cuz of Teppers leadership

      D-Mo on FA & some of my general thoughts

      By TD alt · Posted

      After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...
