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

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
