A quote I'm happy to hear

It's the model they want to follow...or at least the one that Fitterer wants to follow.

The actual execution of it might get a whole lot better if certain changes are made next year.

We hope. I am starting to come to grips with the reality that Tepper really is far dumber than we think and does buy into what Rhule is selling him.

He might indeed be here for the long term, regardless of results.

It's possible, I know.

But a pretty good portion of what we've seen lately seems to indicate Fitterer has more influence over the team than he used to.

That's encouraging.

It’s kind of a no-sh*t comment. You can’t compete in the NFL if you don’t develop the players you draft. 

The Patriots did for a long time.

Years of sh-tty drafting did finally catch up to them in the last few seasons.

I disagree because of the previously referenced differences in fundamental philosophy regarding drafting. He would rather have two nickels than a dime. I just disagree with that.

It's worked for the Seahawks.

Honestly, either approach can work. What really matters is that you pick the right players.

    • I'll be patiently waiting to see what OL additions we snatch off the waiver wire.
    • Look don't get me wrong here. I'm not arguing it's going to just change his arm talent overnight. I'm just saying doing anything on the physical front after the GM who stuck his neck out for him over the concerns around his physical traits got fired is better than doing nothing. That's another layer. It could easily be argued overall he needed to add at least 10 pounds not just for the sake of working in the pocket and not going down so easily but let's be honest eventually no matter how much we invest in the OL he's going to get hit some and those hits will add up. His frame as it stands is only going to absorb so much over a 17 game season. Oh definitely good or bad we will have to run a lot of under center stuff. Bryce will either look good or flounder. But our offense will remain stagnant if we just keep running shotgun plays 90% of the time. You're telegraphing your offense otherwise. That's why I'm not giving Chuba Hubbard too hard of a time over his YPC last year. We weren't fooling anyone. We'll see what Canales has cooked up. It better be pretty damn clever.
    • Why would a team ever not be aggressive in improving the roster? It may look different from year to year but even the best rosters churn at the bottom. That's a no-brainer.
