I LOL at all of the posters acting like they know who the GM should be over folks that have actually been involved with pro sports franchises for many many years. I'll go on record as sayin that I don't care who the hire is. I believe that Acorsi is doing his job and JR will use the advise given to him and make a good solid choice. That includes Beane as well. No one here has any idea if the guy can do the job or not. All this BS about him learning from Hurney means nothing. I worked and learned my profession from people that lost their jobs due to lack of performance. When I was promoted years later I'm certain there were many that felt just as some on this board do about Beane. 20 years later I'm still in my position with the same company. I'm pretty certain JR is using the advise from his consultant and none of us know that Beane isn't being pushed by Acorsi. If you're gonna leave if Beane is named GM why not just leave now and find another team to pull for?

Every person that mentions Beane can kill yoself

If Beane is our GM next season, JR and the Panthers can kill themselves

if they hire beane then you can have my seat. i'll go find a team that actually makes a concerted effort at competing. you can stay here and rationalize our organization making decisions like autistics for the next ten years if you want. i'd rather be cheering for a team in january then coming up with any excuse i can as to why the team isn't competing in january.

Because what you do is exactly like managing a multi million dollar business and Evaluating possible talent.

Loads different from some desk job.

If you fire Hurney, then you must do the opposite. Promoting from within won't strike fear into anybody. The Panthers are too loyal of an organization at times, this is a time where you have to hire from the outside.

Everybody needs to be put on notice. No playoffs since 2008, things have to change.

Actually it's not just a desk job bro. It's not like managing this franchise, but I do manage 75 employees for a company that nets 1,000,000 a year and I'm the only manager in the company that has survived the many changes that have happened over 20 years.

This is about as awful a retort as it gets.

Because a franchise is as good as it is run. We've lacked success because our personnel management the last few years has been awful overall. This decision has huge implications. Not only are we hiring a new GM, that GM's going to remodel the personnel executive landscape of our team, or, in Beane's case, not change anything else. Are we going to hire someone who actually knows something about running a team or the guy who's been basically a placeholder since October and up until that point was responsible for booking hotel rooms?

      I wouldn't trade Svech for the best FA on the market, Marner included. Matter of fact, someone would be giving up a top line scorer and a couple draft picks for Svech.  Look at it this way, if Svech was a UFA in a couple days, what does his contract look like? That'll tell you everything you need to know.

      I know it a real homer take but Im not sure Id slam dunk take that list over Smitty.  Smith just played a different way, he had an ability to just take over a game as a matter of will.  The catch against the giants where he caught it and took a helmet that broke his arm mid air, the games against DeAngelo Hall, 05 Bears playoffs, Ice Up Son, the revenge game against us. Those other WRs may have better stat books but love him or hate him, good guy or bad, Smith just played a different game and when he did look out.

      Absolutely would have to be anther young scorer with either ELC time or a long term contract...    Could see maybe Kyrou or Robertson.... But I really just dont see him being traded you dont trade your leading post season scorer on a long term deal when he isn't even in his prime yet..   not to mention unless you get more than one of those guys at best it would be lateral with unknown team chemistry.
