All blown to hell, only to have the guy you recklessly, aimlessly and improvidently spent all of that capital on to replace, come in, off his couch, and have the most productive day you have had from a QB in two seasons.

And you still found a way to lose.  fug you Matt Rhule.  You don't deserve this team.  Go back to hocking flood damaged cars on a rot lot somewhere. 

I was afraid I’d disagree with this post.  Avoided it for a while.  Now that I’m here, 

yep.

Nailed it Diddy.  Cam did more than enough to win and Rhule fugged it up.

So you really think Fox and Ron didn't have a hand in picking the players??

So Marty for 10 + years was the one not listening to coaches and picking players to fit his philosophy alone??

They didn't have final say. Fox said he couldn't "shop for his own groceries" that was a quote in the papers back then. Ron came in and soon had deal with Gettleman who was a control freak.

Neither had the power to control the roster and choose their own GM.

Too much too fast without the resume.

Bottom line is we went back to Cam after allllll of this hullabaloo. It's honestly embarrassing for Rhule and Tepper.  And I can't imagine Tepper likes being embarrassed. 

Fake out released him, released Heinicke, traded Kyle Allen, signed Teddy, struggled with Teddy, fail to trade for Watson, then Stafford, then turn to trading for Darnold (for way too much), and struggle with Darnold.

Now, it's back to square one, with money flushed down the toilet and fewer draft picks in 2022.    

Guys like Heinicke, Mac Jones, etc. all playing well while we went through the trashcan circus bin to get back to where we are. Heck, might as well count Hurts as well since we were in a position to draft him in 2020 R2 with an unknown with Teddy coming off injury.  

The crap thing is how hard you can see they're trying to scrap for a manageable QB and it's just not working; at all.

I agree with Gentleman  years but Fox was only saying that his final year when they Drafted Pickles.. Othet then that it was clear Fox Philosophy of not liking rookie QB was instituted.. Because they never drafted a top rated QB and only got Vets.. Also it was clear Fox didn't like drafting offensive players in General.. You can see during his Tenure it was rare to get a highly drafted offensive player other then Olinemen and RB...

Marty was here for most of these years and there is no way Marty had final say until 2010 draft..

That was ownership. The brand. After getting burned by Collins ownership was reticent. We continue to have great RBs though.

Cam was the highest we'd drafted since that debacle with Kerry. That was a good call. There's that.

That was Fox to because he took the same philosophy to The Broncos... And again they rarely drafted offensive players high which is a Fox thing..

      The Lombardi video I posted in another thread a few minutes ago--Lombardi says, "You want to know what a team is going to do, look at the depth chart."  He also mentioned how only 27% of first round WRs succeed and how most of the good WRs in the NFL were day 2 and 3 players in the draft?  We have 2 30-year old ILBs (Jewell and Thompson).  Not much behind them at all.  LB is a huge need.  At CB, we have oft-injured Horn, Dane Jackson, and  33-year old Troy Hill at nickel.  Not much behind them.  At WR, we have Johnson (a decent X), Thielen (a solid slot in his last year), and Mingo, a second year player at Z.  Behind them, we have Smith Marsette and MAYBE TMJ.  We could use a player to challenge Mingo and/or to groom for the slot position.  I contend that this is not as big of a need early as LB or CB.  We could argue that C is in the cards.

      well, we know generally.....we are going to end up missing on most of the guys we draft in reality.  Draft history says that.  Ours certainly does.  That's why I like the WR double dip in a great WR draft class.  Increases your odds of hitting on something that eventually works out.  and we don't have a first day pick.  as he said, day 2 and day 3 is often WR gold.  I still think top of round 2 is just a sweet spot for WR.  I think those hit rates are skewed.  C has a good first round hit rate.....because you rarely see any C ever drafted in the first round because of  how the league values it.   So it's almost can't miss super studs twisting folks arms to have to take them.
