Just due to the fact the Cowden was seen as a viable candidate when we were looking and he came to the Titans from the Panthers, I would imagine he would be a strong candidate for this job IMO.

You don't punt a year of the draft. Your camp roster is pretty much set. You're competing with no one else to hire the guy you want. I was pretty shocked when Dorsey got canned because of timing, but the timing may not be as big of an issue as I thought.

Clark has shown he's willing to spend, and if he's willing to pay Dorsey for a year to basically go away, the problems were a lot more with him than just he wanted an out.

Dorsey was trying to squirm out and go to the Pack. I read it on CP. Hail Clark.

The Panthers have relieved GM Dave Gettleman of his duties.
The Panthers finished 1st in the NFC South in 3 of Gettleman's 4 seasons as GM. |

I hear that Andy Reid was behind the Gettleman firing.

Dorsey to Carolina wouldn't be that bad. At least it's out of the division

They all had their strengths and lorded over a noteworthy amount of success within their respective organizations. They also all made public gaffes that came back to haunt them in the end. Dorsey didn't inspire the same level of acrimony with players that Gettleman had -- Dorsey's decision to release wide receiver Jeremy Maclin in June via a voicemail left on Maclin's phone was his most notorious move -- but there was plenty to question during his time in Kansas City. Yes, Dorsey was responsible for the roster of a team that won at least 11 games in three of the last four years. He also oversaw a team that routinely found itself in salary-cap hell, wound up paying more money to Pro Bowler Eric Berry on a long-term deal that was consummated after Berry excelled while playing under the franchise tag, and lost two draft picks for tampering related to the contract Maclin signed in 2015. That might be the ultimate blessing for the Panthers and the Chiefs. Sure, their owners could've found successors in-house if they had moved quicker on the terminations (the Chiefs watched director of football operations Chris Ballard go to Indianapolis in January as a general manager, while the Panthers saw assistant general manager Brandon Beane replace Whaley in Buffalo in May). However, there's something to be said for recognizing when a mistake has been made. The lesson to be learned here is that there's a lot more to being a general manager these days than simply picking the players. |

You fire your GM this late in the game when one is available to improve your team. This is certain an attempt to grab Dorsey.
