We’re here with our first offseason of the Keep Sounding podcast. There’s a good bit to get through, so here we go:
- The Carolina Panthers have hired Scott Fitterer as their GM
- Fitterer’s background and our opinions on him
- Expectations of how a Fitterer-run front office will different from past front offices
- The fruitlessness of using past drafts as a way to judge GMs or other front office personnel
- There’s no such thing as a good drafter
- Panthers former GM Marty Hurney is joining the Washington Football Team, but not as general manager
- Their actual general manager still has close ties to Ron Rivera
- Should the Panthers trade for DeShaun Watson and what would it take to get him
- How the pursuit of Watson affects the Panthers draft strategy
- How unlikely it is that the Panthers actually make the eighth selection in the 2021 NFL Draft
- Other holes on the roster
