Hurney is "the worst GM in the NFL"

2004 and 2007 weren’t on Hurney. We would have made the playoffs if it weren’t for injuries to our pro bowlers.

Delhomme looked like an All-Pro before he got hurt in 2007. His stats were off the charts.

Why don't FO limit Hurney's abilities away to a certain point like Falcons did with their GM Dimitroff in a limited capacity dealing with drafting and choosing players from draft.

[Mr. Scot]

Let me give you a quick historical example that shows just how bad Hurney was (and is) at this.

Some years back, you might recall we had two really good linebackers in Dan Morgan and Will Witherspoon. Both were going to be due contract extensions soon, so there was plenty of talk about what we  could do to try to keep both in the fold.

What did Hurney do? 

According to reports, he wrote one big contract for both and dictated that whichever one of them signed it first got to stay.

Morgan got there first. Witherspoon well end up signing with the Rams as a free agent.

Looking back on it now, I can't believe just how completely idiotic a move that was. Make a decision? Structure something that works for both?

Nope. First come, first signed.

That's who were dealing with.

Delhomme never at any point in his career looked like an All-Pro.

He was good enough to do what we needed him to do, but please...

Because the only person over him was the guy who was dumb enough to hire him in the first place.

I like Hurney, better than DG. I think this time around he fixes his mistakes from the past, which he still built a super bowl roster. He also drafted the two cornerstones of our franchise in Luke and Cam, and he also got rid of a fat slow turd in KB that everyone loved for some reason, so I'm fond of him.

People are still arguing about 2010, and beyond?

Guys I get it's the offseason, but geez.

You weren't around for his previous tenure here, were you?

He also wanted to trade the pick that ended up being Cam so he can he can draft up to get Clausen but miraculously  couldn’t find a suitor.

I love how the only good thing people can say about Hurney is he made the two most obvious draft picks in franchise history. Hey, I guess his total poo performance up to that point is the reason we were in position to make those picks. Yay?

[MVPccaffrey]

The sooner the new owners buy the team and kick this bum to the curb the better.  He can go back on radio for another 5 years while other teams once again show absolutely zero interest in him.  My only regret is that the senile pervert in charge wasn't outed before firing the best GM the Panthers ever had.

You know Hurney created a super bowl team?
