How could we not give Fitt another chance?!?

That's why terrible and reckless trading and here is the status he shouldn't be able to make any big future moves until we know who the next GM will be for sure 

I hate we are missing our 3rd, but 5-7 rounders rarely make the roster. It is not as bad as Matt is making it out. Looks like those picks could be high, so there is a chance of trading back and collecting more picks. The sky is not falling.

I have no issue with the Baker trade even now. We gave up nothing for him.

the Trade for a Matt Corrall is looking kinda steep now but still not terrible overall. I do think we need to slow way down on trading anything 1-4, after round 4 I don’t care. 

I'm not a member of the Corral bandwagon, but given how absolutely sh-tty the coaching has been, I don't really think we know anything much about him yet.

If he was bidding against himself for Mayfield, I'd say he won.

We got him for peanuts and the Browns ate most of his salary.

He won the boobie prize.  Mayfield is actually playing worse than Sam.

His first signings were Erving and Elflein.  His third was giving up a 2nd, 4th and 6th for Sam.  He then guarteed Sam for 18 Mil this year.  He then traded down in the 2nd for Terrace Marshal and used one of the acquired picks for Chubba Hubbard. 

Fit's hit rate aint great.  He can hide behind Rhule's skirt, but he ain't blameless.

I don't think that's an accurate statement.

2022 5-7 rounders - all but one made the roster. DE Amaré Barno was cut, but is now on the Dolphins practice squad.

2021 5-7 rounders - all but one made the roster in their rookie year. LS Thomas Fletcher was placed on IR.

Excellent pedigree?   

He helped take a SB team and turn it into the stale bag of lame it is up in Seattle lol, post legion of boom and most of their good picks. Can't even say he helped with the best move they made in years by ditching Wilson lol.

Oh no!  We dont have our 6th and 7th pick!

 

I'm a Fitt fan. Liked most of his moves so far via trades. I like we are "in every deal". I have liked his drafts. Not sure what else you can ask for.  Is he the new whipping boy with rhule gone?

Yup. Some of these guys want to “throw the baby out with the bathwater”. Fitt has done a good overall job and the scouting department was recently revamped. I think these guys deserve a chance to right the ship now that Rhule is gone.

micromanaging rhule made it hard to see what anyone could or would do without his control and influence.

i wouldn't cry if we started over there, either, but i also would be curious to see how he'd be different without rhule around.

This 💯 I think we’re just now beginning to understand how dysfunctional things were under Rhule’s influence.

Just 3 weeks ago, you were guaranteeing all of us that Rhule was going to take the Panthers to the playoffs.

Have you noticed that a pretty heavy portion of your argument is based on the idea that Scott Fitterer must be blamed for anything his bosses do wrong?

Are you also going to try and tie him to the contract Tepper gave Rhule?

Good overall job?  fug that

We have to agree to disagree. There’s a bigger picture here that you’re apparently not seeing. I won’t lose any sleep if we made a clean sweep here. While Fitt is not totally blameless, this roster mostly has Rhule’s fingerprints all over it. He was given final say of personnel BEFORE Fitt got here and it remained such until he was canned. I’d be curios to see the direction of this team without the influence and control of the previous HC.

    • 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.
