Is Tepper trying to tank for a top pick?

If he thinks after giving Rhule 4 QB's that tanking in the draft for a rookie guy is what Rhule needs to be successful...Riot on Mint if we "tank" and Rhule keeps his job because it was "part of the process"

The scary thing is I think this is exactly what he has planned.

That's probably the last idea Rhule has to save his job, and Tepper is obviously in some form of denial/embarrassment mode 

When Tepper gave Rhule that 7 year deal and that off-season press conference last season about the long term process shows that Tepper is drinking the kool-aid. Sad he has Rhule spiked the bowl for the rest of us.

I mean that’s the way the nfl works, that and building an elite team and plug in a vet/high quality no mistakes guy. But more the former.

and the more you try and fight it will cheat codes and short cuts the more the franchise just gets fuged into a hole…that’s what piss poor organizations do, just look around and see it’s like a video game to them

we should’ve fuging tanked to begin with but knowing what Rhule is it’s good we didn’t. Then again the same person who hired Rhule hires the next coach

I know it’s early, but none of the QBs in this coming class are really crushing it right now. Pick 1 vs 3 might not matter as much this year…

Yeah, I'm not exactly begging for any of them but there's still a lot of football to play. We'll see.

I doubted Baker would ultimately be the answer and now I'm REALLY doubting it.

    • 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.
