Scott Fitterer is getting plenty of praise for the job he's doing right now - and he probably deserves it - but let's not forget one of his coworkers is working behind the scenes as well.

Dan Morgan wasn't around for the draft or the bigger part or our free agency moves (he came aboard in May) but you can bet he's in the mix for any and all evaluations that are being done now.

My expectation next season is that Morgan will have a big voice in free agency since his background is predominantly in the pro personnel department while Fitterer is a longtime college scout.

Mind you, that's assuming he doesn't get a GM job before that. And while I certainly don't begrudge him career advancement, I'd really like to keep him around for a while so here's hoping that particular promotion is still a year or two away.

You are very much correct.  He has not reached his full potential with the Panthers.  He may stick around until he becomes GM for the Panthers. 

I'd be pretty happy about that.

It'd really suck ass if he got a GM job next year because he wasn't here for the meaty part of our offseason. We'll only have had him for basically part of one year.

But sad to say, that's a possibility.

That'd be a meteoric rise through the ranks.

Season or offseason? 🤔

Maybe a little bit of column A, a bit of column B. 

If Dan is our GM next year, then there'll have been a collapse of epic proportions. A clean the entire house effort like Chip Kelly being shown the door in Philly thing.

Let's hope instead we get the season we're all needing. 13-4 with a run at the championship.

I was thinking of somewhere down the road...

Or someone plucks Fitterer from us because he's probably stealable since he doesn't have final roster say

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By strato · Posted

      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.

      Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
