Is GM list final? I’d expect that list to be fluid as things develop

Unclear.

Pelissero  technically only said the list "included" those names but other than a random mention from Person and the news that Mike Disner withdrew, we haven't really seen anyone else discussed.

I would say that Halaby and Callahan are good bets to be the picks FWIW. 

I haven't looked into either one of them, but what they've done is not what I'm interested in anyway, it's what they'll do that interests me.

I do know that they aren't necessarily our first picks, but that doesn't mean that they won't be good. 

I had read something about Callahan giving us a leg up to get Tee. That's cool, but I still want us to draft a quick-twitch route runner in the draft.

Basically, I'm not gonna be impressed right away anyway unless we hired Jim Harbaugh, but I have an open mind until I start seeing results.

Callahan has been on the head coaching radar for a while now.

Of the GM list, Halaby is the one I'd absolutely not want. The Athletic story about him being part of the toxic atmosphere that helped force Doug Pederson out in Philly reads like an even worse version of the "Hunger Games" story from the Panthers this year.

Brandon Brown would be my favorite at the moment, but I'd hire Dan Morgan before I'd want Halaby.

If I had to guess, GM will be announced tomorrow or Tuesday. If they have gone through 2nds already then they are probably deciding through the weekend. 

It's definitely possible.

The decision could already be made but the NFL hates when non-playoff team announcements take attention away from the playoffs themselves.

I think that the Panthers are very concerned with optics, and they know right now that the guys they really want aren't coming, so they'll may like everything is all peachy when they hire third and fourth choices.

      How Are You Doing as a Fan??

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      The only thing that even remotely compares to the 2023 and 2024 seasons is probably the 2010 season (I've only been a fan since 2003 so I can't speak on seasons prior to that one).  I remember in 2010 I watched all the games and just laughing at Clausen the whole time. But at least we got Cam Newton right after that season.  I got more hype for games in 2011 than any other season minus 03 and 15. Just the way cam exploded on the scene immediately had me so excited.  I have no clue how I can get that feeling again. Wed probably need a new qb. I feel like Bryce is the reverse of what I just described and Dalton is an old vet and obviously not the future. I don't even think we can bank on drafting a qb next year even with pick #1. Canales and Morgan might want to do a slow complete rebuild and focus on other areas of the team first.  Which means it could be multiple years for me to get that excitement again, which is depressing as hell.  Maybe we'll at least draft some blue chip players that can get me somewhat interested again. Because right now, all we really have is Chubba and I doubt he'll be here next year with an expiring contract and panthers just drafting Jonathan Brooks in R2 last year.

      So much this. I said in the game thread yesterday, but this is a desiccated husk of a franchise with a barren roster. Even when there are things to feel somewhat excited about such as Legette looking like an NFL WR last week or the OL being amazing, it's already destroyed just a week later by injuries (I'd be shocked if Corbett isn't done for the year with a torn biceps tendon). It's just a revolving door of faces with no real core in the roster or coaching staff worth building upon.
