Narrative Check: The Roster is "Close"

No our roster isn’t close. Lots of holes, not many stars. Burns is probably our only star on defense. Horn could be a star, but young. Shaq is above average,Luvu the same. Brown might be a solid starter. Chinn cam be good if moved back to linebacker or played to his strengths. Jackson is a sold 2 cb. The rest are back ups. Our offense has CMC, DJ, Moton. Icky has potential to be great. Corbett and Christensen are solid starters. 

 

we don’t have enough stars to be good, if we could get a good qb and a DE then I think we could cover up a lot of holes we have.

Under Fitterer we've given up a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th -  nearly an entire draft - for Darnold, Mayfield and CJ Henderson. Big contracts to players like Ian Thomas, Elflein and Cam Erving. We've handed out one of the worst contracts in the entire league BOTH years he's been GM.

I know a lot of people are in "EvRYthInG iS RHule fauLT!!!111" mode but Fitt is garbage and needs to follow Rhule out the door.

If we keep him (which we probably will) we're only wasting time with trash offseason moves and fielding subpar teams every year until he's gone.

You seem to be assuming the power structure has been like a normal team. These moves WERE Rhule. I’m sure Fitterer was involved to some degree but it was Rhule that wanted those guys and at most Fitterer was just the one directed to get them.

Never understood why @davosis such a devoted DJ Moore hater. Look at what he's done with trash QBs and tell me he's not a WR1.

That's a weird observation--I quite love the dude.  I am just very WR hungry and want a more dynamic arsenal.  Never really had a targeted hate towards him so don't know where that's coming from.

I just think we need more guys and don't think the team should rest on this idea that everything is in place but a QB and coach.  I just don't buy it.  The overall WR room is nothing special and I think it's become more important than ever when looking at (most) successful models right now.

I was on the fence, but you've made some compelling arguments that we should trade CMC to the highest bidder. I'm on board.

I’d hate to see him go but if we can get a good return, like a first (or if it is indeed the Bills or another team that’s going to have a low pick , a first and a decent young player or a mid round) then it would be the smart move.

You mean Adams who through 4 weeks was on pace for less than 1100 yards. Yeah life isn’t so easy when you don’t have a elite QB. 
 

If Moore played with Rodgers his would average 1500 yards a year.

Adams already has 5 tds, which is one more than DJ has ever had in a season. 

You are still stuck on yards, tds win games, not yards.

Steve Smith averaged 5 TD a season. Hard to get a bunch of TD when your on a run heavy team with bad QB play

    • I encourage you to go back and watch his college play. Notice how he immediately backpedals to 10 yards behind the LOS on almost every snap. You can't do that in the NFL. Your OTs have no chance of keeping those freak show edge rushers off of you. You can't create a pocket that deep. If you drop back like that in the NFL on a regular basis you're basically on your own. Your OL can't do a whole lot for you. Bryce can chuck it when he has an airport runway in front of him to step up into. There's a reason why "ease of generating velocity" is such a talking point evaluating QBs. It's not how hard or how far you can throw the ball given a perfect situation. It's how hard and how far you can throw the ball in a typical NFL game situation and that's where a lot of my concerns with Bryce were going into the draft. There were way too many plays in his college tape that if you were watching that purely in terms of translating it to the NFL it just didn't work.
    • Yeah, like I said I get it. From a revenue perspective I'm not a good customer for them. They've probably intentionally tanked offline franchise mode to try to get people online. Again, not a terrible strategy from a pure business perspective. I can't really be mad at them for doing what's good for business but yeah, from my perspective it still sucks.
    • Ok let me be more specific. Smith was a stud before Newton got here do you not agree? Yes, LaFell improved under Cam but then had his best years after leaving the Panthers with Cam as the QB and going to NE. So he improved playing with someone else. Olsen was in Chicage the year before Cam arrived and statistically had the same numbers his first year with Cam.  Hope that's clearer for you.
