not coming at anyone here - for real, arguing on here is wild.

but honest question 🙋‍♂️ why do so many assume everyone on staff is responsible equally for the state of affairs?

If your boss or others in your company are doing things poorly wouldn't some of the lower level guys with a front row seat have a realistic idea of what should change. or am I the only one thinking this way?

thanks for reading

It was said numerous times across numerous reports that Fitterer ran a collective/"collaborative" Environment and Dan was his right hand man, so to me at least, that says Dan had strong input in how the roster was constructed the past few years.

Not sure if this has been addressed - but back in the day he created a thread to announce he was joining the huddle and to promote his restaurant venture. Even told folks that if they stopped by to eat to ask if he is there and he would say hello - several users did this and posted about their experience. He would post his takes from time to time on things related to the team as well.

I want to say that it was 2009 when Jake was off the rails and the board wanted Matt Moore to start that Dan posted to say he had heard from people on the team that Moore wasn't prepared to start, that he had not picked up the playbook, and some random posters who didn't know better said "yeah, like you would know anything about that". 

Also recall someone who didn't like what he had to say call out his concussion and injury history - pretty sure he left after that and I don't blame him.

Thanks he seems like he would be a down to earth nice guy to meet.  I work with a guy who worked at target in Charlotte and said that Steve Beeurline came in one day to return a cheap pair of shoes he bought said he was really nice just amazed him he was returning a 17 dollar pair of shoes.

yeah, it was him and i would talk to him about how bad i felt some people were talking to him. really an embarrassing time for the huddle. you've got a panthers legend jumping in conversations here (not the only panthers player to do so) and you've got these clowns in here with internet tough guy syndrome wanting to say things from the safety of anonymity and the internet to a guy who could squash their puny heads like a grape. 

he was a nice guy, but there was only so much he could take from morons in here (i'm sure a lot of those idiots with internet tough guy syndrome are still in here). 

but while he as here he would give some insights into what he knew was going on and he knew because he was still friends with a lot of people on the team and he was local at the time.

I remember the times, so embarrassing for the huddle.

A model that fits in with the way Tepper likes to do business...which is kind of odd considering that he also apparently supported people trashing each other behind their backs 🤔

If Dan wasn’t an ex-Panther, no one would want him to be hired.

      Trading Down Could be a Gold Mine in This Draft!!

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      This is why it's probably going to be hard to trade down. This draft is fairly light on top tier talent but pretty deep in talent of that next tier down. I don't think there's going to be a lot of teams clamoring to move up and numerous teams might be entertaining moving down. Not a good market to trade down if that's the case.

      And if they can't find a reasonable trade down (I think we would need a 2nd rounder this year bare minimum to make any trade down worth it). I would definitely expect Dan to trade UP for an EDGE or LB in the top half of R2. Just makes too much sense. We also have a plethora of mid round picks to use as ammo.

      I don't mean to make this a mock draft thread particularly,  but every time I do a mock I have been investigating the talent that goes off the board between picks 8 and our low 2nd rounder pick 57. There is a gargantuan amount of talent still left on the board in the top half of the 2nd round every time I do one. Losing our original 2nd round pick to the Bears as the last pick of the Bryce trade stings badly .  I'm particularly looking at elite players like Carson Schwesinger (LB), Luther Burden (WR), Matthew Golden (WR), Maxwell Hairston (CB) , Nick Scourton , Landon Jackson, Donavan Ezeraku (all DEs/OLBs) . The sweet spot in this draft really feels like pick 15 to 40 - ish. This is why the Bears should be making bank with this draft. I don't know how realistic a trade down is from 8, but if we could pick up any teams higher 2nd rounder and still grab their 1st? We'd be cooking with gas man.  Say for example we get Tet McMillan at pick 8, if you wait all the way to 57 you stand the chance of not getting any impact pass rushers in this draft. And I don't think this team can afford that.  I'd personally love for them to take a break from drafting wrs in R1 or R2 (i think we've taken one in the top 2 rounds in the majority of the past few years), and stick to repairing the nfls worse defense in history (in terms of total points against iirc, or was it yards? Also included my most recent mock as an example . Don't put too much into the  late round selections lol
