Panthers interview requests

See, this is where the logic of "Hey, let's do things like that one successful team" breaks down.

It's fine to be impressed with the Steelers record. Using that as justification to request an interview with Matt Canada? Not so much 😕

Yes--here is one of the articles about it--includes some names like Bienemy as well.

If I recall correctly, the year that we hired Ron Rivera, oddsmakers had Bill Cowher listed as the betting favorite.

(pretty sure Jon Gruden had nice odds as well)

Big GM interviews today.

The Brian Johnson/Alec Halaby chirp by Caplan is uh, erhmm..

And then the Morgan one - I think we all suspected he'd get legit consideration.  I would hope there would still be some overhaul to our scouting dept even if its the case.  The crew that coalesced on these last 2 drafts should not be something to model after.

Which could be a good thing. I think the Reich hire always felt rushed last year. Part of me deep down wonders if we were so eager to make a hire that’s why we didn’t give Steichen a serious look and didn’t even bother to reach out to Gannon

Reich hire felt rushed for sure but only putting your focus on one candidate was recipe for disaster.  I imagine with this process there's contingencies in place for if even your 5th preferred candidate is hired away.

This is utterly false. I highly doubt anyone knows anything at PFN about the search that the Panthers beat reporters wouldn't know first. It is highly "suspected" that the Panthers will like Halaby due to his background in analytics and connections with Sportsology in the past. I noted a few days ago how it was interesting the Champ Kelly news came out the following day while they were interviewing Halaby almost as a distraction. 

I do not doubt Halaby will be a finalist for this role, but to just clump Brian Johnson in with Halaby just because they are with the same organization is lazy reporting to generate interactions. Johnson’s performance has been clear and I highly doubt a Harvard grad and analytics "guru" would vouch and attach his name to for somebody the entire Eagles organization and fan base seems to despise and hint at replacing through every media outlet available.

The only way I can imagine these folks promoting Morgan to GM is if they are bringing in one of these guys to serve as President/Ops Director/etc. 

That opens up AGM for somebody like an Adrian Wilson or similar.

PLEASE tell me we're going to interview Harbaugh

I'm not interested in either of them.

    • This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.  
    • I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it. 
    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
