Pretty confident in saying most scouting departments have ballpark grades on a lot of the guys a year out.

Not sure if that is really a huge tactical advantage.  Predicting what any team does on draft night is impossible, draft night is so fluid, one move ahead of you can have a trickle down affect that changes your entire draft.  Maybe if they were picking one spot ahead of us he could make an educated guess on what they would do but not a huge deal with respective draft positions.

He will have some insight on the type of players they value, but honestly Schneider and Carroll have been there so long most teams probably already know that.  I want to say they value SPARQ alot, could be wrong.

Maybe one of his previous scouts had been talking about some small school "gem", but even that is rare.  Very few good players really fall through the scouting cracks.

Each person should have a rough idea of eachs plan. No one that I know of has made their 180 player big board. I mean its not a secret about what carolinas needs are, even a normie fan knows.  

I do worry some about current panther scouts/executives making contact with Herniay, once Fitterrereer starts forming his plan/strategy/targets/big board. Burner phones are cheap and with just a little smarts its hard to control this. Herniay could have already promised money/jobs to them. Then it becomes a trust issue, cause some new GM will not allow current staff to see/know the plan/strategy/targets/big board. They think "fug this guy/team, they dont trust me, I need another job!" "Im not going to work hard or give honest report on players, cause they are not going to re-new my contract". Frittererererer has to figure that and I bet he wants to hire some new people after the draft too, good luck...

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
