Gettlemanto draft from MA via Skype

[Jackofalltrades]

I thought this was interesting, DG will be at home to attend his son's graduation and will be taking care of the draft via Skype. Glad to see he's grounded in his family and that technology affords him such an opportunity.

People constantly harp on the fact that there is more to life than football. Gettleman is living that belief out.

The concern was so minute that coach Ron Rivera was able to joke about the Panthers' final four picks.

"If all 4 picks are defense, you know what happened," he quipped.

@RapSheet: Cool what #Panthers did for GM Dave Gettleman. Sent IT to Worcester, MA to set up a “draft room” in a hotel so he can see his son graduate

@RapSheet: The #Panthers replicated a mini draft board for Gettleman in his virtual draft room, allowing him to fulfill a promise to his son.

I just saw this on NFLN and thought it was hilarious, the caption on the bottom of the screen read, "Where is Dave Gettleman?" And I just thought, oh boy we lost our GM in NYC...

This will be a none issue. Can't wait to hear this as an excuse if one of these late round guys don't pan out though.

Don't blame him one bit, that's an important day. Gettleman will still be taking care of business.

Wonder if he's got TWC. They're already using Cowher to market their service lol.

Somebody's comment on that article: 

 

"Of course Gettleman taking time off during the most important time of the season. Gotta love absentee GM's, then they blame everybody else when things go wrong.Feel sorry for Cam Newton."

 

Another:

 

"gettleman gave up on the draft...real nice...panthers top 10 pick next year."

 

People are fuging retarded...
