Cut loose by the Texans amid regime change under new GM Brian Gaine...

Has a long work history with Ron Rivera. Has even worked with Marty Hurney before...

Would love to see him brought aboard in a front office position, including and up to Assistant GM...

His knowledge and experience would help make our front office better.

I am worried about who is running the operation--sure looks like Marty and Ronnie--frankly, that is scary.

On the football side, yeah.

I thought it was interesting to hear that Tina Becker wanted to fire the team's current legal counsel but was advised against doing that until after the sale was complete.

Far as I know, Richard Thigpen has been the teams counsel since it started. His involvement in Richardson's unreported non-disclosure agreements has probably doomrd him from continuing.

More seriously, why would anyone want JR3 as, for Christ's sake, an assistant GM? He's experienced (as is anyone who has been doing the same thing for a hundred years with limited results) and more or less a glue guy administratively, but, really, does he actually bring us closer to a Super Bowl?

Are you Mister? You think like Mister.

Seriously, my feet hurt.

Can I get a foot rub?

Why would we bring the guy you wanted for GM in now when the sale of the team is imminent and new ownership may be announced any day?  What would be the point ?  Let the damn process go to completion and let the new owner decide who he wants to run the team.  I swear you have OCD on this thing scot.  Hurney , Rivera,  and Tina are obstensibly  running the show until JR signs away his holdings.

Jimmy Raye was either a threat to the new GM or was over rated. In either case untill the new owner is determined why bring someone else on who could get axed when our regime changes.  

Because post-draft is the season for these kinds of changes.

Three different teams have already overhauled their scouting and front office staffs.  Those guys will all be looking to latch on somewhere new, including Raye.

Won't say that good folks don't get fired in these shakeups because they do. Still if he was that great then why was he fired?

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
