Shakeup in the Panthers scouting department

[Cookie Lyon]

Quote

The Carolina Panthers’ college scouting department is undergoing change a few days after the draft wrapped up.

Assistant college scouting director Ryan Cowden is leaving to take a position in the Tennessee Titans’ front office and college scout John Peterson is retiring, according to league sources.

The moves represent the first turnover in the Panthers’ scouting department since general manager Dave Gettleman was hired in 2013. And depending on how the team fills the vacancies, there could be additional fallout.

Despite an extensive scouting background, Gettleman left the college side intact after his arrival, while hiring Clyde Powers and former Washington tight end Don Warren as pro scouts.

Cowden, 38, has been hired as the Titans’ director of player personnel, sources said.

The former Wofford safety joined the Panthers in 2000 and became their national scout/senior college scout in 2012. Cowden, who has been based in Greenville, S.C., spent the past two years working alongside college scouting director Don Gregory.

Peterson’s four decades in football spanned three leagues – the NFL, CFL and World League – and included stints as a college head coach at Frostburg (Md.) State and Bemidji (Minn.) State.

Peterson, 67, was hired by the Panthers in 2008 following 12 years as an area scout for the Seattle Seahawks.

Panthers have had serious success in drafting the past few years. A promotion from another team was inevitable.

Is this bad? Is this good? Quick someone tell me how to feel about this. In all seriousness, someone will step up. Does the observer think there is some rift or something?

Interestingly enough, the Titans just let go of a longtime scout named Marv Sunderland who worked with Gettleman when they were both with the Giants.
