Another thing. I forget his name but there is a guy we have on staff who has worked closely with Fitterer who is from the Jets. Did Matt Rhule force him to do that too? I'm eager to see how he does without the college crap but it's a double edged sword because now he no longer has that card to play. It's all going to be him.

It’s pure speculation at this point but it makes too much sense with their history in Buffalo.

People like Fitterer because of the trades, but when you have Marty Hurney for 2 decades it’s hard to not like the next guy.

Besides, what has Fitt really done? He doesn’t get any of the blame for the cap mess and wasted capital? Matt Rhule had him in a chicken wing with his head pressed against the monitor making him make the deals? No.

Dorsey is a control freak if you can’t tell from how he handles himself on the field and in interviews. Those personalities gravitate towards people they are familiar with.

Our offensive line, for one. Hell, the roster really isn't bad at all, except for a rather obvious hole at signal caller.

Also, for the record, Fitterer and Morgan go back way further than Morgan and Dorsey do.

Dorsey's in no position to demand anything.

I’ve laid out his insane trades, crap extensions  and poo drafting in detail numerous times.  So yeah in closing fug fitt.    You however struggle to post something positive he has done.   

I've said plenty (just like above) but generally I get a response of "fug fitt", so...

His was bidding against himself.   

With no leverage. T2G was out the door and Rhule had made us desperate. That's not a position of strength to be negotiating from. The Jets could say no and we would still have to pursue it because the only other option was PJ Magic. The trade sucked for damn sure and I wanted no part of Darnold. I would have rather had Minshew for a 5th.

If hes remains, he did not chose poorly. 

If he doesn’t, when do you think he gets another GM job? Name one team that would trade their GM for him. I fail to see the logic of going with an unproven(or awful) GM with an owner with tons of money and can do much better. The team is still 15M over next years cap(after RA) and is headed to the top pick. Is that good management? Or was Fitt just locked in his office all day?

Again just a simple what’s his best move and please don’t say Horn or Iky? I gave all my arguments plain and clear and you’ve come back with nothing. Just weak replies when you can’t answer.

Adios.

What's his best move but I can't name his draft picks?

Yeah, sure 😄

The roster that's been built here by Fitterer and Morgan, even with Rhule's influence hanging over him, looks decent overall except for the quarterback spot. The OL definitely looks improved, and that after only a single offseason. Hell, throw in that we've actually gotten returns for guys like Greg Little, Dennis Daley and Robbie Anderson.

Meanwhile, the crux of your argument is basically "he worked for Rhule".

So did a lot of guys, James Campen for example.

If you want to talk about weak arguments, that's one of the worst.

If you are planting the flag for fitt doing a good job by getting late round picks then holy fug it’s not even worth discussing with you.

texans may trade for him, raiders another. I thought the anderson move put them in the green for 2023, theres a couple reports stating that. Cap is a mess tho, again I asked, boss walks into your office below his and tells you "resolve the contract deal with robbie, ok, I dont care just get it done and him in the building".  Whos fault is it??

 

Rhule - " marty taught me one thing, you never know how the year plays out, so keep spending money on those loser players".

Finnsererr- "Consider it done"

 

Its clear Finnesererer wanted a GM job and when one out of the 31 opened- He even called Pat stewart to get him a interview, that was after tepper/rhule spent 2 weeks with little but the guy form 49ers and jeff ireland(whom i wanted). 

If hes staying that means he must have gained some power and maybe even a raise....

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

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      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
