Hurney Legacy Good or Bad

All the while, we thought he was great with the cap, but he wasn't. In essence, he opened one credit account to pay another with the way he played restructures. DG is trying to buy the team financial independence so he can have true control over the roster(I.e.,cutting an ineffective JStew and his bloated contract). I'm sure Smith was hard for him and as an observant fan.....I promise there will be more of these type cuts! He has to pay players what they are worth, not what it takes to keep them in CLT

his legacy is very average. yes he shelled out some dumb deals, but he also netted us some GREAT franchise pieces: including a player that no one wanted who was Defensive Player of the league in only in second year. 

 

When he was good he was great, when he was bad- well were still feeling those effects. 

 

Only thing he gets crap for that I refuse to blame him for is Beason. That was completely out of his control, and in fact he made the right call by essentially admitting his mistake and drafting Kuechly.

Gross, Gamble, Davis, Beason, Williams, Cam, Kuechly, Hardy, and CJ among others make it hard to say he was a bad GM. But he fugged us with his stupid extensions.

 

As I said....he was money in the first round.  Really weak in the 2nd-3rd round. 

 

And he SUCKED at contracts and the cap.

      Exactly.  You let him play out next season and continue to develop Thorton.  Jackson’s earned his next contract, but his age and the risk of tying up such a large portion of the payroll at one position leads me to believe that we’ll let him walk. In all likelihood, we’ll draft another CB, or two, and bring in some journeymen to fill the roster void, between now and the start of the 2027 season.  That’ll create more balance financially across the roster enabling us to invest in other areas.

      I’m just not impressed with these hires/openings

      As far as the NFCS … I think this division will be hotly contested the next couple of years.   I am tending to pay more respect to both Atlanta and the Saints n terms of how strong they will be moving forward, than not.    I am mixed on Ryan but think they have a decent roster to start with. I don’t think he blundered hiring Stefanski. And that offense can be dangerous with a QB. Plus, defense is arrow up. No 1st round pick, WB issues will dull their effectiveness. Question is, to what degree?   I think Moore is going to be a good HC and can overcome tape that people have on Shough. They need a lot but they were playing with people. Just the way you want to see all the way to the end.    Not sure about Tampa they have Mayfield but I don’t think they can maintain their success and Bowles is not going to last much longer. They have to go through all that. Gonna be tough once it starts. Might already have started.    For us I feel pretty good about Morgan. But less so about our offense, we have some short term RB and OL issues and those things are critical given what we are working with at QB.  Overall, mixed. Like a lot of what I see but some major question marks remain.

      Panthers WR Xavier Legette named potential trade candidate for 2026 offseason

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Absolutely. If we are talking about a 20 year old youngster. He's a grown-ass man, and he doesn't know what his job entails or how to do it? Maybe he will be better next year! It's the Panther way.
