LOL, that's just as absurd as the people throwing out proposals of 2 first rounders and Teddy

I'll trade the 8 and CMC...anything further, outside of a day 3 pick, and I'm looking elsewhere.

 

Remember DW ain't on a rookie deal any longer.

what was the context?

The context was about how some people criticized him for making too many changes too quickly as an owner and that others criticized him for not doing enough like "getting rid of Rivera" sooner.

I'm at work, planning to watch it later for sure but a brief synopsis in the meantime would be nice...

Scott Fowler asked him a question about having "his guys" in charge now.

Tepper mentioned that he got some criticism for his moves early on citing that some people "said I got rid of Rivera too early...moved on from Rivera too early".

He did acknowledge that the team is now run by people he chose rather than people he inherited. As such, there's no one else to blame if things go wrong.

You are surmising intent when it isn't known. If I was to do similar, I could say only Chinn was worthy of contacting and that isn't what he said at all. 

Don't read the tea leaves too much. They just make tea.

That's not what I'm doing.  He was asked if he spoke with any players and he said Chinn had contacted him.  He wasn't explicitly asked about Chinn the way he was asked specifically about CMC and TB. Then he mentions CMC and then omits TB from that, insinuating that TB isn't a team leader or core player (which he isn't).

That combined with "It's starts with a quarterback" and also "A QB needs to be able to win the game when the game is on the line in the 4th quarter."  Serves as more then enough evidence to make what I said more then tea leaves.

Combine that with Tepper's statements and I think you're just refusing to hear the truth.

Yeah but he didn't mention Brian Burns. Does that mean he is going to get traded? How about Shaq Thompson? DJ Moore?

Like I said, don't read into it too much. It could be something but it could just as easily be nothing. The things that made me think we are moving on is precisely what you are talking about with the elite QB attributes. I don't know if those were directed at Teddy intentionally but I do know that he doesn't have those qualities.

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      By cranky · Posted

      The best part is they compliment each other. Chuba is a more patient runner, patiently waiting for gaps to form while Rico is more explosive. I wish they would use Rico more like McCaffery was used - getting him the ball in space to take advantage of his explosivness and violence. Then have Chuba pound the middle for the tough yards.

      I loved those late 90s-early 2000s Miami teams.  If McGahee hadn’t had that injury, he would probably have been a Top 10 all-time rusher, no doubt in my mind.  The fact he didn’t lose his leg below the knee is still a miracle.  And the fact he came back from that, made it in the NFL, and still carved out a career that included over 8k yards rushing and two pro bowls is damn impressive.  It just demonstrates how good he would have been had he never had the injury.  Prior to that, he was like nothing I had ever seen.  Like a bigger, more physical and elusive Reggie Bush.

      Boozer may end up going higher in the draft, but agree about Caleb Wilson. Give me that dude, think he's going to translate very well and has the attitude I want on a young team.  My perfect world as of now... Trade anything not bolted down as far as vet's go. Sexton is on an expiring and would be an easy flip. Bridges, just get him somewhere else. One year left on a low $20 mil deal should be an easy trade...but the apron for many teams could haunt us.  LaMelo is the issue. Likely would have to trade our problem to someone else for their problem (Ja, Zion, Zach Lavine) to make contracts somewhat match up.  I want to build around last year's draft class, get as many bites at this draft class as possible, etc. If we get lucky and get #1 or #2, wonderful. If not, get into the top 5 or so and grab Caleb Wilson.
