Torrey Smith touting Tepper

Recommended Posts

Mr. Tepper is the man. A breath of fresh air is an understatement.

I’d really love Mr. T to be more outspoken on social issues and get even more involved with the community. Things like bringing in US soccer star and fine American Megan Rapinoe, criticizing government leaders who have failed us like the orange ape currently in the White House, and just being more transparent and less exclusive like the other dude who used to own the team. All great examples of not “sticking to sports” and cleaning up our fanbase. #TrimTheFat

He’s fielding a good product. He’s actively involved in the community. He’s investing in the team in terms of infrastructure and analytics. 

Political leanings or social causes are fantastic for those who are into that. Checks all those boxes, too.

I’m more focused on the football end, and he’s doing all the right things thus far. I hope it continues, and I’d like to see Ron do well with him. It’s a big year for RR.

Tepper regularly states that he is all about taking intelligent risks and it will be interesting to see when one of these risks don't work and how the Huddle with handle this.  Or when Tepper takes the team to Rock Hill because Charlotte won't pay for a new stadium . . . .

Stick to sports or go to tinderbox....no place for social issues here...just football

Sorry gramps but I expect more from my NFL organization, athletes, and owner than providing me a 4 hour window to drink beers on Sunday. I know you are a big Richardson guy and are devastated he and his awful way of doing things are longer here, but Mr T is bringing change. Don’t like it? Leave! #TrimTheFat #YouTheFat

Scared money don’t make money 

I’m thrilled about the analytics part he is advocating. Thinking outside of the box is a good thing!

Tepper’s approach is different than JR’s. It’s about winning and using every resource possible to create an edge or to create an advantage. Glad we’ve stepped into modern day football. 

No more country club atmosphere good ol boy club around here.

    • Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure. 
    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
