Your "so far" take on Fitterer

Let's be clear: There is nowhere near enough information available yet to know how good (or bad) Scott Fitterer is going to be as Panthers GM. I think most or all of us should understand that.

But I am wondering, given what we've seen of free agency and everything so far, what people's feelings are at this point.

Encouraged? Excited? Disappointed? Uncertain? Confused? Confounded? Thank God it's not Marty? Something else?

Where ya at?

I'm still at Meh. 

What I'm seeing hasn't been big names and that's not necessarily a bad thing. I am seeing us bring in some folks that have some promise and a lot of potential but I realize that doesn't always pan out, especially when they've had injuries.

The pick ups are showing me that there's some serious research being done, hopefully with an eye toward specific needs of Rhule, but we won't see how good it is until the season gets going.

What I do strongly like is that we haven't seen Fitterer go out there and feel it is necessary to go big game hunting to make his mark here and mark his territory. At least unless he goes crazy and offers everything to Houston for a QB who may not be allowed to play this coming season.

The draft is going to tell us a lot about his priorities, style and ideas of what values are. If he could be as good as Hurney with the first rounders, and then be steady for the rest of the rounds, he'll be a winner.

A little confused, but mostly in the TGINM camp.

 

I believe that Tepper is fed up with "building" a winner, and wants us to go about "buying" a winner a bit...but it could work out...or it could fail miserably.

I really hope that he and Rhule can exist in the upside down power dynamic, but he's been a part of that style for a long time now.

Optimistic.

I mean...we did go after Stafford and offered up a current year top 10 pick while doing so.

Yeah, and I'd still be Meh until I saw how it played out. Stafford is always talked about as a good QB stuck on a bad team, but I think his record points to the distinct possibility that he isn't a good enough QB to make a bad team into a good one.

Way too early. Like some move and dislike some moves. He is supposed to be a draft expert so that's what I am really waiting to see how he does. Worried we discount injuries too much now. 

Agreed. Hasn't wowed me or pissed me off this offseason, mostly a bunch of "meh." 

The draft will determine my early impression.

Draft and I can give full credit. At the moment, meh.

      We're at DefCanales Level 1

      lol It's 2 games in with a broken QB it's too early to tell. I hope Canales works out but this is still funny.

      Bill Barnwell defends Bryce's benching with some horrific stats

      By NorthTryon · Posted

      This backlash has truly been sad and was part of the reason I believe Bryce was drafted in the first place. He was small and looked like a kid and everybody just loved that he was also good at football. Once I heard CJ Stroud talking on his podcast tour this summer, I was like well that is the reason he isn't here. I remember the hatred for Cam that basically arose out of him being a massive, confident, black man. Every time a new broadcast crew met him during warmups the telecast was just about how larger than life he was. I even had a friend who is close to Cam's size talk about him sucking the air out of every room goes into like being big, loud, and confident is a bad thing. And many here along with the media never showed any sympathy, empathy, or a second thought to the shite Cam had to put up with while here. Till this day it is either about the stupid fumble that didn't matter that he didn't jump on, or that he only had like one good year.  So to see this crazy backlash from the sports and social media regarding Canales benching a small, weak, entitled, non verbal QB who is playing terrible, struggling to recognize defenses, missing open WRs, and leaving clean pockets is mind blowing! Only Chase Daniels watched the film before talking this week. Everyone else used it as an opportunity pine for Bryce and crap on organization. Again, I hope someone is dumb enough to give us Josh Rosen compensation for him.
