Using our #1 Draft Pick to Bait a Good HC

[Woodcookedbbq]

I've been browsing other team's boards and a lot of them have been speculating that we'll be touting our #1 pick to lure a superior head coaching candidate here, which makes the job more attractive. I never really thought of that, but it makes sense. Thoughts on this?

That's what we've heard so far. And I'm expecting more names later on anyway.

It pains me to say this b/c I am a Falcons fan (also a panthers fan b/c i own a home in Charlotte)..but the best scenario would be to hire Falcons OC Mike Mularkey. You would have an offensive minded coach who could mold Cam Newton (who i pray the Panthers draft!!!) into what he helped create in Matt Ryan. Not to mention you would have a coach that knows EVERYTHING about a division rival (falcons) and is familiar w/ the division as a whole!

If panthers are using the #1 pick for coaches to come to Carolina, the coaches should say u better show me 2 #1 picks for that mess u all got.

I'm sorry, I know I'm new here and everything, but this is the dumbest poo I've ever had the privilege of reading.

It makes sense that the fact the Panthers have the #1 pick will be part of the equation and conversation with HC prospects.

This is what I see happening, and in this order

1. Luck and Harbaugh meet privately to give each other a heads up of their plans.

2. Harbaugh gets picked up. (Probably San Fran)

3. Luck declares for the draft

4. We sign our coach. (Probably Cowher)

Cowher is not coming here, should be pretty damn obvious by now.

This is known info. I was trying to bring earth shattering info to the board.

Ok, I will let you all know some insider info that leaked from The Huddle. Zod is going to do a drawing. All active members name will be put into a bucket and the lucky winner gets to join Luck and Harbaugh in this meeting that you were talking about.

the first sentence should explain it all.

[CatfanMO]

Why is that? Do you think he is going back to CBS? All his "preferred choices" are all but taken. It may be now or never for the chin to get a job back in the NFL. I still think he is coming here. It all goes back to hearing what Harbaugh and Luck decide to do.

How is it dumb to attain a Coordinator as a head coach who has been in the NFL for a number of years, and has helped lead an organization from a 4-12 record to 3 winning seasons and 2 playoff births in 3 years (to include a 13-3 season consisting of wins over the Aints, Bucs, Ravens, Packers; not to mention #1 seed in NFC) ?????!!!! Not to mention you want to draft a QB, don't you think an Offensive-minded head coach would help mold that young QB?! Please explain your insane notion that this would be stupid...

And if you're referring to my desire to draft Cam Newton over Andrew Leaf, I submit this to you...Look at the teams Joey harrington jr has faced. Look at how he struggled against Oregon....lemme say that again...OREGON...not some defensive powerhouse!! 2nd half stats in that game for Andrew Leaf...0 TDS 2 INTS, BALL GAME LOST!!!! Now take a look at what Cameron Newton has done against ELITE DEFENSES like LSU, Alabama, South Carolina...CMON!! Oh and please dont bring up what Luck did to a defense that couldnt stop James Madison (VA tech)!!!!!!!!!!!!!
