Dan was one of the FO guys that didnt want to trade him to the rams along with fitt.  

Do you have literally any proof of this statement?

Yeah that was a mistake but at least he knew not to pay him all that money a few years later.  

Heck even trading him to chi town instead of Moore would have been way better DJ already had his extension.

I'm just looking at when he was the actual GM.  Backing a decision his boss made is a kind of gray area IMO.

Is there any reason to believe Morgan was secretly against every bad decision Fitt made?  

I don't think he was, but I am also taking the "he backed his boss's decision on X" with a grain of salt.  We will just have to see how different it looks with him actually running the show.

Is there any reason to believe he wasn't? Most people wouldn't publicly disagree with their boss/superior.  It's a statement of pure opinion with no facts backing it up.

They had worked together for years and it was a collaborative process.  Not sure why it’s surprising that people have doubts about past decisions.

Again literally 0 proof of that and he wasn't the shot caller then, doubts are just fine pretending it's a fact like you were in the room is ridiculous.

This has been posted and discussed ad nauseam on here.  Morgan didnt want to trade Burns

Morgan was second in command behind Scott Fitterer in 2022 when the Panthers rejected the Rams’ offer just days after trading All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers. The lone dissenting voice was former salary cap and contracts executive Samir Suleiman, who believed the Panthers should take the picks for Burns, according to three sources familiar with the discussions.

I understand that and who knows what was said between him and Fitt. Once the decision was made he will obviously “back” it. It’s not getting out that they are in disagreement on an important decision.

Suleiman was against it and that got out, its not always a united front.  I mean morgan has receipts to bad decisions.  The dj johnson, dane jackson, Jammie Robinson etc.   Nobody is perfect but his "wins" so far are pretty limited.  Mike Jackson, Johnson.  But like I said he is behind a couple of disastrous decisions as it stands now

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
