Well the alternative is to not admit a mistake in judgement and stick with Teddy. Personally I prefer the approach they are taking by moving on. Seems reasonable to me.

Being a good orator does not mean that person is of high character. See politicians. Character and charisma are two different traits. One is not dependent on the other.

Rhule talks every player up in public. Doesn't mean he's going to draft them. Now what he says to them in the locker room may not align with what he says in public. He will use whatever language he deems necessary to motivate said player or players. Granted he seemed to bend that rhule with Teddy after the season with his "has to have a tremendous off-season" comment. And now with the openly aggressive search for his replacement obviously signals the end of the Teddy era before it ever got started. But I'm not even the least bit concerned about this up coming season. This is a new team, finally. There's no where to go but up Panthers fans. Enjoy the ride.

I would agree with that. But it's a fair deal that doesn't cost use a lot of picks. It's going to be interesting if they end up going into the season with Teddy on the team. It's obvious they want a change at QB, even Ray Charles could see that, God rest his soul.

I take it you are new here.

Seems fair to me.

You just described every player Marty ever drafted beyond the first round.

Did you steal that from trash they threw out of Marty's old office?

The Oracle says your odds are not good.

I honestly don't remember that guy. Refresh my memory.

AKA_bluesman...I think.

I'm not sure how long I've been here. Too damn long that's for sure. Reading the all time great SCP's gameday speachs was the only thing that kept me here. Now it's because I have nothing better to do. Thanks I guess, Jon

Package him and Mick to the WTF team for a hot sandwich.

It's difficult for me to believe that the team is telegraphing their intentions in the draft through the media. Granted going after Stafford was a shot across the bow for Teddy but to put it out there you are looking to trade up is just dumb on so many levels.

Fans on here will cling to anything that gives them hope that this will mean they get a QB. Everything said this time of year by the teams is just stuff to make other teams think they won't.

It's bullsh*t season in the NFL. There will be tons of rumors floated around this time of year to throw the competition off. You guys should know this. Never believe a damn thing until it is officially announced.

Sort of like fans do. You see guys in here arguing over these QB's like they are some pro scout with their ridiculous hot takes.

Fitts is well known for his scouting background so I'm sure he has scouted damn near every player drafted by someone at some point. I am sure he also has knowledge of the guys already on the team a good deal better than we do. It doesn't take long for him and Rhule to discuss the teams current needs and anyone that has watched more than a couple of our games can obviously see where the weakest links are. I say we give this new crew some time to put it all together before we declare it a failure right out of the gate.

You guys ever thought that maybe that's what the team wants everyone to think? That maybe it will generate interest in some team wanting to trade for pick number 8? You guys suck at poker. Please don't play for money.

Also, I warned you guys not to sleep on Jones. Smokescreen? Maybe.

Right now the relationship between Rhule and Fitterer is labeled as a partnership. Rhule runs the "process" and the players on the field. Fitt is charged with finding said players. In theory if they are always able to come to mutual agreement on the major personnel decisions with each focusing on the important part of their perspective roles it should go smoothly. At least that's what I got from it. Tepper rights the checks so he's the boss.

Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one. And they all stink. Get over it.

I don't know either but I don't tweet. Social media is the devil.

I admit I don't get the strategy towards Teddy. How they are handling that situation is puzzling to say the least.
