Does Tepper keep Fitt and let him hire his own coach?

You said you didn't want to trust Tepper with making the HC hire. Tepper hired Fitts. With the heavy input of Matt Rhule.

That's reality. The rest is pure copium.

As someone who chronicled pretty much every step of the GM search, I can tell you that wasn't how it went.

The whole legion of Boom hates Wilson and everything that has happened since they got let go one by one. Only reason the Seahawks were even relevant in the last 20 years or however long, don't care to look it up

They were setup to be the next dynasty and then crumbled.  There's a lot of interpersonal issues at play there, but I have not been impressed by the management of that team since drafting Russ and Bobby Wagner.

Okay...

You went through these same motions with Gettleman. It's alright man. Sometimes we get excited about hirings/draftings/signings and they end up sucking. It happens. You don't have to keep blindly defending them for years.

Dude, you're not even talking about Fitterer at this point.

I'm still waiting for anyone to make an argument other than "he might not suck if not for Matt Rhule". That's the entire crux of the defense. He's been wheeling and dealing and we're fielding trash, our cap situation next year is trash, our draft capital situation is trash. How much further down a hell hole do y'all really need to watch this franchise plummet?

So far the best arguments I've heard is Tepper sucks at hiring and Dan Morgan likes Fitterer.  I'm not sure those are good enough reasons to give Fitterer the next ~3 years of this team's future.  After that time, we'll likely be in the same exact spot we are now.  Might as well go ahead pull the plug, start over, and roll the dice now.

We're watching a team that's run by a college coach fielding a mostly college staff running college schemes in the pros.

Knowing that, I'm no more ready to clean out the personnel department than I am to gut the roster and give up on pics like Jaycee Horn.

Put everything in Tepper's hands and you may as well be rolling the dice.

Thanks for confirming. "He might not suck if not for Matt Rhule" is literally the entire defense.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
