Of course, as the only GM position open, and he interviewed last week, he's got a new gig. Title as yet unclear:

I bet he tries to take necas and pesce/skeji with him with some surprise in there like Drury or Chatty

This whole thing still seems fishy to me. Id love to find out when the truth comes out in the future.

It’s either two things. Wads wanted more money OR Tom had enough of coming up short every year.  It can’t be anything else.

Not too much to read into. It's a hard cap, Dundon is pretty tight with the checkbook and Waddell has been here 10 years.

Time for a change and I'm willing to bet Waddell was not part of RBA's contract negotiation.

Mutual parting of ways.

It’s not about money or Tom. Waddell is 65 and had a lot on his plate in Carolina to include a lot of the business side of the things. 

Doesn't make sense that he's taking on a bigger role in Columbus, then.

He stepped down because he wanted to do something different but also make more money. 

 

good news is the team has a trade partner for Necas now. 

Johnny Hockey, Werenski, and Boone Jenner for necas, KK, and a 1st?

    • For the silly people that worship her it will be that.  The Coleman 'legend' thing, they did that with another fairly average player that was here and I sort of mocked or questioned the 'legend' status. Instantly caught crap for insulting someone's favorite Panther. So okay, Kurt Coleman is a Legend. 
    • You allow him to compete--you all are talking as if I am proposing making him the starter. Give him a new coach, new weapons, good OL, etc. and see what happens. You are saying, "Well Damn.  It did not work for 3 guys..."  Right now, our C is injured, we lost our top 2 WRs.  Better question:  If you need a QB, Why would you not take a chance on bringing in a QB who was a former first rounder, a good arm, intelligence, mobility, youth, etc.  and see how he does out of NY--with a better OL, better running game, better receivers.  I am not saying give him a 10-year contract, I am saying give him a chance. You act like there is no improvement on offense here--it was a 2 year process, and next year is year 2.  To me, how can you sit there with Bryce and an opportunity to sign a veteran QB on the cheap comes available and you say--"Not us. We're good.  We are waiting for Patrick Mahommes."  Jone's problem is obviously mental--and he has little support.  Why is this so frigging hard to comprehend.  It is called "bottom fishing" and it is better than sitting in the boat.  
    • I think we're going to fall from behind quite early and be forced to abandon the run game.  3 rushes -2 yards 1 catch -10 yards
