At the post draft presser Scott praised Matt Rhule who was on the phone and personally made this trade with Bill Belichik. We should have known then...

With these future picks deals, you need to win.

Everyone bags on the Sam Darnold trade, its was a future 2nd. In some books thats a now 3rd, depends.

The pats has a story I could tell, but I dont want too, no hating panther GM fan would care/understand.

I think Scott needs a fair shake without Rhule's funk lingering around.  The GMs traditional role is to go find and sign the talent and the coaches job is to motivate/teach/develop them.  Fitterer's true GM role was limited with Rhule's meddling and Matt himself couldn't even hold down his end of the job.

He is a gm cuck that agreed to a job with no power.   That’s best case scenario.    We need clean house.    There are a ton of poo moves he has made since he got hired.  If this was supposedly rhule then his ass better show tepper receipts that he was against it.  I mean trading for darnold and baker should be firing offenses on general principle.    And there are a ton more of bad moves

Only thing I don't like about him is him trading away picks constantly. Would've been real nice to have ALL of our picks this year since we're going to be picking so high. Could say the same for last year. 

Unless Corrall ends up being qb of the future somehow trading up for him particularly was bad. Same with that cursed CJ Henderson trade. At some point you just need to eat your mistakes and try again next year not keep burying yourself deeper in a hole.

There was a report 49ers were offering picks as well, no clue if its real or not. I even think it was 1st(be a late one). 

Bro I didnt want Sam, nor did I like the trade package for. 50+ posts of me bitachin about that it when it happened. Got into it will a few huddlers that defended it, @TheMostInterestingMan manned up and apologized afterwards. 

 

Still if your boss tells you to buy taco bell for lunch, what do you do?

Well I can tell you one thing if your NFL general manager is a glorified errand boy you go out and get yourself a real general manager who won't settle for such a role with a professional team.

One of the guys who did just that has a Super Bowl ring to show for it.

(would've had two if not for a Russell Wilson audible)

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
