REPORT: Panthers will prioritize HC then pair him with a bright new sexy boy GM

I have no idea why Tepper wants to put the cart before the horse again. Maybe all he wants from the GM anyways is to just say yes?

Maybe it works out but I get the feeling something is wrong with his approach. We could already have a GM if he just fired Fritters when he fired Frank. Not thrilled with the idea of another HC with too much power again. 

Might be they want to go ahead a hire evero and take his input on who he wants to work with.

so fuging stupid. we need an elite talent evaluator GM and we need that guy to choose a HC that fits his vision for the roster and how he'll build it out with the talent he finds. OR give Harbaugh the keys to the franchise to do whatever he wants and bring in whoever he wants

Seems logical to hire coach first who should dictate the type of offense and defense they want to run then let them help determine the person they think they could work best with to achieve their vision. Especially if you have search firm or consultant assisting in the interview process anyways.

I'll wait and see how this plays out first.  No guarantee this is what is going to happen, and even if it is, it all just depends on the hires.  Are we going to like the GM less just because he got hired after the HC?  Or vice versa?

I don't think anyone actually knows and is just spit-balling.  But we'll see.  We'd be far from the first team to go HC first then GM.

That sounds awful all the way around but OK. It's not like they couldn't do both at the same time and put both in a room before making it official. 

If it is Evero I have a hard time not seeing him as one and done also. Plus he didn't take the interim job. IDK, it's already getting weird.

Tepper will be scraping the bottom of the barrel unless he’s paying 50mm per. Why anyone accomplished would want a talentless offensive roster and a veruca salt demanding owner? Maybe a few dinners with Bryce can close a deal with Ben J

Some people like challenges.

I liked the way Adam Gold posed it on Mac and Bone this morning. Who is more important: the GM or the HC?

The HC is the one who dictates philosophy of offense/defense and then it’s the GM’s job to go find the pieces

Vrabel has had 2 straight losing seasons.

 

Also he's a lock to replace BB in New England.

And before that he was coach of the year with 4 straight winning seasons for a mediocre titans team. He’s a good coach

I know everyone is saying wrong order, but this is the modern NFL. 
 

Coaches run the show now. The GM is just there for talent procurement and doing what the coaches want.

 

100% correct

besides having the coach be part of selecting his GM is the only way Panthers have a shot of luring anyone to this job

    • I think you've taken my comment out of context as well. I never implied that his father being a psychologist would make him a better leader or make him a psychologist. If your dad is a lawyer, you're more likely to be exposed to law. If your dad is a doctor you're more likely to be exposed to medicine that's all.  My question is, why did you take my comment that way? 
    • Are you guys trying to say that the Cam ‘haters’  exactly mirror the Darnold ‘lovers”? Same people?  I don’t think that is it at all. I think it is more likely to be different people, probably with some overlap. This racism thing, when most of the team and league is Black and people are big fans of plenty of Black players, but have football issues with one or two and that makes them a racist? I don’t understand that at all.   I will tell you also, Sam Darnold at the price he would have cost, and all that cost invested in other areas plus we’d have DJ Moore, was a far better option than what they did.   
    • More of the same, but with actual statistics thrown in with the film review. It's a long one He puts blame on the offense and coaches as well, but doesn't sound too high on Bryce's ceiling. Lots of words but here's the basic summary Young’s lack of arm strength and size creates little room for error in his play. If he takes one extra hitch or is a hair late getting rid of the football, defenders often make plays on the ball or squeeze windows even tighter. The issue is that Young constantly needs to take an extra hitch to get enough zip on the ball when throwing to the outside and he often needs to work backward in the pocket to see that target. What does this all mean for Young going forward? Well, let’s just say it’s not exactly a rosy start to his professional career. It’s a rough statistical profile and his play wasn’t overwhelming when I studied him. Yes, former No. 1 picks like Goff and Trevor Lawrence have overcome their horrid rookie years to become viable quarterbacks, but those are the exceptions to the rule, and Lawrence showed more glimpses of high-end play during his rookie year during the Urban Meyer experience than Young did under Reich and the rest of the Panthers' funky bunch coaches. This is not to say that Young is a bust already, either. His accuracy and intelligence still translate to every offense and still give him a floor as a viable starter, and better teammates, like the newly acquired Diontae Johnson and explosive rookie wideout Xavier Legette, should help highlight those traits even more. But, you take a player No. 1 overall to move the needle, not to just get the job done. Young has a path to be a quarterback who can keep an offense on time with some ad-libbing ability to add creativity and spice to an offense (Alex Smith, another quarterback with a rough rookie season, is a play style and career comparison I keep coming back to for Young). But to justify that 1.1 selection, Young (and Canales) have to push it even more in 2024 and beyond. https://sports.yahoo.com/bryce-youngs-hopes-for-a-bounce-back-season-with-panthers-comes-down-to-more-than-just-his-supporting-cast-140010168.html
