The idea was never that Fitterer would stay as a GM co-GM. It was that he'd take an alternate position away from the personnel duties.

The fact that you couldn't comprehend that is where the issues started.

reading back through casillas post and if that dude has sources they are way off.  Please link his post about fitt because here is one and its lol funny.  I suspect the dude went mia due to his outlandish "insight"

Borgonzi interviewed? I don't remember seeing that.

I know Tilis did but I thought it was only once.

I apologize we did not Interview Borgonzi, I misread the article and it mentions Borgonzi but I read it as Borgonzi AND Tilis

it was Poles and Tilis…not Borgonzi and Tilis when I was researching back in November

Yeeeeah...there's not actually anything in that post (dated back in September) that supports your argument.

Not surprising, though... 😬

And the conversation with Casillas on this topic didn't happen on the Huddle.

Apparently, Fitterer's name makes you emotional 😄

it's just word play.  I call it what you don't want it called.  I call it how I think a new GM coming in would view things.  It's already not attractive. 

But if Fitterer stays and keeps the bulk of his GM duties.....what does that make him in reality? Especially for all those already employed here?  You then alluded to the 49ers assistant GM as the perfect comparison for the plan (which it's a bad comparison as I showed).

It’ll be interesting to see what the rumored HC/GM pairing will be for this cycle. The easy bet usually seems to be pairing the HC candidates w/a personnel guy from the team they’re coming from but some of these future HC and GM guys build relationships outside of their orgs so that’ll be fun to monitor once the hiring cycle gets going.

I don’t see or hear that as rumblings that there is conflict between the two like your posts attempts to make it sound. Thomas Brown willbe calling plays if the offense doesn’t figure it out by week 4. 
 

oof

"Word play", eh?

Funny thing...

Of course, the next part of your MO is to accuse people of things what you actually do, which I'm guessing probably comes next.

Guess I called it 😄

After two games?

At the time, there wasn't any indication of such a thing. It didn't manifest till later.

And by that time, Casillas had moved on to a different forum (which is where the current discussions are happening).

That's Johnson / Agnew, a combination which becomes more intriguing with the notation that Agnew has connections with Ejiro Evero and Thomas Brown.

Hortiz / McDonald would be another one, but that would require Tepper hiring a defensive coach, something not many people see happening.

Out of the list in the OP I would be most excited about Hortiz.  Don't know anything about him, but the Baltimore Ravens are one of the better run front offices in the league since they moved from Cleveland.  Hard no on the Bears.  Peters from the 49ers would probably be a good bet but it doesn't sound like he's leaving.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
