Can we start posting non-panthers threads yet in the main forum or is that after black Monday? Cause this is…

Sad.

Sad indeed. Didn’t know he was still in the League. Should’ve retired years ago.

Fitt's new role if he sticks around (for LOTR fans):

Grima

I'm sure he chose a reputable firm.

Folks, NFL teams lie to the media all the time.  Why does this need to be announced now?  Well, Tepper just made an ass out of himself in Jacksonville and is WIDELY being ridiculed by everyone for meddling and being a dysfunctional, trigger-happy owner.  This gives the perception of an independent committee that will recommend the decision.  Here is what else they need to do--

1. Announce that you are not going to pro days in March.

2. Keep all wives and non-expert personnel from hugging free agent candidates or potential draft picks. 

3. Take up stamp collecting.

If he's actually hiring outside people to run the search bravo. If we are only going to replace Fitterer with Morgan as much as I like Dan the person and former player he's been here with Scott through some mess and he absolutely cannot be absolved. Not to mention there's the layer that Tepper exerts his own influence on the GM and the familiarity he has with Dan will probably muddy the waters. Honestly I'm in favor of completely gutting the entire front office and scouting dept. We have been comically abysmal at drafting.

I take it nobody considered hiring Ked Woodley and his homeboy as consultants?

 I think there are females who would do a good job if given the opportunity to gain front-office experience--gender has nothing to do with it, so if you are putting words in my mouth, you misunderstood. My point was the Tepper's involvement in personnel decisions that have been shared on social media.  Not sure what you mean.

Can we afford them?

Happy with the direction of an outside firm, now will Tepper listen to the analysis and suggestions?

I like Morgan and if he can stick around to help with the transition and NOT be the new GM, I'd be happy with that. Morgan might not be Fitterer, but we need a clean slate up top and Morgan too closely resembles Fitterer's thinking for me. To go from Fitts to Morgan seems too much like the thinking that has us in our current situation. 

I'd love to be wrong about Morgan as a GM. Former Panther, history of success with other organizations.

Please don't make this outside consultant agency be Tepper's PR move to smooth out the rocky road he's created, only to be a distraction while he continues to do what he wants.

Couple six packs and one of those velvet paintings of Elvis should get them onboard.

Cool he’s got a soccer guy helping him hire a football coach. What could go wrong?
