And with the 1st pick of the 2025 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers select....

Kyle Shanahan led 49ers had the #2 pick in 2019 as well as the Lions in 2022. Things take take unfortunately and if we draft high so be it but we will get a player.

I think it would be good if Evero stays.  I want the Canales/Evero combo then we can get a comp when Evero gets hired about another team in the future.

if basically the only change is Frank/Brown and keeping everything as is or promoting from what was there…..that’s too much of the old for my liking.   We have a lot to issues to fix.  Lack to culture is one.  I’m a firm believer we need new people/faces.  Preferably ones the new HC wants and isn’t assigned.   I don’t think any new HC should be assigned most of his key staff.

Nah overhaul the whole offense.  Campen, Frank, (Brown, McCown and Staley are already gone), get Jefferson away from our WRs.  Let Canales build his offensive staff from the ground up.  If he wants his own defensive guy, that's fine, but Evero is solid there.

I’m not implying Ejiro isn’t a good coach.  He is good.   

I just don’t think a new HC that is also tasked with installing a good culture in a franchise that has none…..should be assigned a staff, that largely was the staff assigned to the last fired HC.

Looks like Tabor is gone.

Now I just need confirmation that Jim Caldwell is no longer on the payroll and I’ll be fine with it all

Nobody wants the job except coaches that no other team desires. It's a desperate hire by a desperate owner, and we already know how this will end. The story writes itself with this moribund franchise.
