Eh.....I don't think we need to get ahead of ourselves on the OL. Even IF Ekwonu works out in year 1(a big if historically for LT's), I don't think the IOL exactly inspires confidence. If we can just NOT be a bottom 10 unit, that's fine. IMO, we will still need to add guys at RG/LG and C in the next couple of offseasons.

IDC if we take a 4th round QB. Walker needs competition anyway.

Lol. It was so bad.

How rare is that? For us anyway.

I think they will trade into the 2nd or 3rd with 2023 draft capital.

God those people look so dumb in hindsight. One of the worst takes ever.

IDK about that anymore. O'Brien is gone and they gang raped Cleveland on the Watson deal by sticking to their guns. I am not sure I want to tangle with them. We have mainly lost every trade we have made so far under Fitt/Rhule. Caserio was the guy Belichick kept blocking from leaving.

Pickett will probably be a better NFL QB than Willis. I realize that probably isn't saying a lot since Pickett best case is Andy Dalton.

Do you promise to ban Rhule when he spoils our picks?

Not to mention Cam also went on to dominate at Allbarn, win a NC and Heisman. Had he just stayed and whatever JUCO he was at, there is little chance he ended up in the first round.

Same here. I am largely regarded as an asshole in my industry, which I am okay with.

Last few hours to weigh in. I plan on doing a poll Friday night to compare this to.

Yeah, we will see. He was also known for being a loud mouth in his career, so who knows if that has changed. It typically gets worse and not better with age.

True. I think he needs to learn the lesson to shut his fuging trap except in private.

I mean, his salary is only bloated for us. We could trade him and he would be cheap for the team we traded him to. The dead cap hit this year would be nuts, though.

I think that definitely didn't endear them to prospective free agents across the board. Teddy is a pretty well liked veteran, although he might not be the most skilled guy. So the owner and coaches dragging him after he just spoke his mind probably didn't sit well with a lot of veteran players.

I work with enough old people all over the country to see and hear enough open racism or thinly veiled racism. Back when I gave a poo about trying to change people's minds, I would talk to them about this poo and it almost always boiled down to a learned response(relatives or people they were around growing up) or some event that happened to then and they chose to decide that "those people" were all like that. Seems to be fairly universal across all races or religions for that matter. Now I just ignore it. It's nothing I care to fight and most of that crowd is old enough that they wouldn't change regardless of the circumstances. My general opinion is that they are all headed towards death anyway, so let them die and I just won't have to fuging hear it as much.

I think it also may just be that they don't have many or any options at QB. Good free agents don't want to be here. It just kind of is what it is.

If we draft a big time DE and sign Brown, I could warm up to that. If we draft some othet ignorant poo(especially QB) at 6, I am gonna be furious(not really, I sort of expect this).

Yeah, Rhule may be a scummy used car salesman but nothing about him screams blatant racist. I think Sam just didn't throw him under the bus, so he doesn't have reason to be butthurt. Also, I think the Sam failure is even more of a hit to his ego so it's harder to throw in towel.

Not really giving up, just angrily waiting it out.

I think it probably does to some people. Racism is real and in plenty of places. It is hard to know what is in someones mind/heart.

But what is the common thread there? Rhule picked all those fools. Hence why he should go. Remember, this man got a windfall if a contract and complete control of personnel. The buck stops with him. All failures are his.
