why not?  He was the one so in love with Little he was trying to trade back into the first...maybe he thinks he just isn't a fit with the team regime.

2022 4th?

He does have 2 more years on his rookie contract, so he's cheap AF. He actually might have trade value, if not much.

I’m not going to lie. Little was a legit LT coming out of Ole Miss. His measurements were great. Arm length of 35”. One of the reasons why I think that I’m not going to knit pick Rashawn Slater so much due to his short arm length.

I never saw it to be honest. He looked like he had two left feet in every Combine drill and he tested athletically subpar across the board.

Another Hurney 2nd round trade up special.  

And the Grier pick is a waste also.  

I swear after the first round Hurney’s track record is 0.01%. 

Well remember, you didn't actually have to be good at your job to work for Jerry Richardson. You just had to be loyal.

Tepper actually does seem to want his people to be competent. I just wish it hadn't taken him three years to understand that Marty wasn't.

Thing is Little had some flashes in pass pro / the run game this past season and even as a rookie -- I remember a few plays of him pancaking defenders in the open field. 

Issue was health his rookie year, and in his sophomore year he just didn't have any level of consistency, he's a bust to date due to the compensation given up to get him, I go back to the fact that Moton should have been the LT, and Ford should've been drafted to play RT.

We should have moved Daryl inside, especially off the injury.

Fitterer only mentioned him as an afterthought in his press conference.  He mentioned even Daley ahead of him.  
 

What a waste of draft picks.  Meanwhile Cody Ford is probably still balling.  

Generally when a player is “balling”, they don’t get moved to Guard after their rookie season and replaced by a low-tier FA.

You can point to players like Little and Grier being inactive for most of the season or at least being relegated to third string as a serious indictment....but there’s also a reason why they still haven’t been outright cut despite being pretty terrible on the field. I would guess the coaching staff still thinks there is the possibility of developing them. This coaching staff hasn’t shown any hesitation whatsoever in cutting losses with deadweight players.

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
