You said we would be a laughingstock if we traded him for a first.   Thoughts now

For just a first...

And I actually already started my thought with my first post in this thread. Hated not getting a first, but the overall return isn't bad at all.

This trade is the NFL GM equivalent of making a bunch of bad financial decisions, so you have to take your best asset to the pawn shop and take what you can get.

People can do mental gymnastics about how a late 2nd and late 3rd is a "haul", but when you zoom out, this trade is really a capstone on a very poorly run team.

ah but wait until you see how many 4ths we get in the trade down

Its 100% a haul no mental gymnastics needed, if you can zoom out from how much CMC meant to you as a fan and look at it more in terms of NFL value.

Lol true. This regime has just barely gotten it self close to being on par but we are still down a couple shots after several years of taking mulligans.

What really sucks in this whole deal is we have now had to hit the reset button twice in three years.  That is the price for hanging onto Hurney, who perpetually believed we were only a few pieces away, and he could turn pyrite into gold if he paid it enough, and then hiring a guy with no NFL pedigree, making him basically omnipotent, and watching him turn out to be a buffoon at the NFL level (or more pyrite, if you will).

Our owner thought he was the smartest guy in the room.

      Least excitment before any season?

      By strato · Posted

      They cancelled JR big time. Until I see the actual accurate account of the racist slur part of the ‘case’, I am not judging him on it. People lose their temper and say poo sometimes because they want to hurt the other person and can’t come up with a reasonable insult. That is why people call people names, as far as I can understand.  It happens. People get pissed and say stupid things they wish they hadn’t. That is a fact. I would like the real details before I go into judgement mode.  When I was young and pretty I worked an assembly job at a GE TV plant for about 6 months. My line supervisor was gay and he didn’t ever touch me with his hands but man oh man he harassed the hell out of me. But I needed the job so I dealt with it. It sucks, but you know he never got any satisfaction and I didn’t sue him or GE. I put up with his poo for the paycheck. I left when I could, end of story. No boo hoo and boycotts and lawsuits. Some of these people who get these settlements, I wonder really, how bad was it that you couldn’t endure it for that probably pretty good paycheck.  So I am one who thinks on balance, what I know *for a fact* about JR doesn’t make him a bad enough guy to be forced to sell the team he started. Something tells me Tepper was afoot in that poo.

      Another Bryce breakdown

      I can’t see Bryce Young getting to the Super Bowl unless he is a backup. You aren’t talking about beating most teams, having a nice season. It’s beating everybody just to get there. For his sake I hope I am wrong.

      I agree with the post above that you need great QB play to realistically have a chance. We got our choice of the 1st pick in a decent QB draft and screwed up. Sure, best case is Young has a miracle upgrade, but it looks to me like that’s not going to happen. I liken this to Alex Smith and the Chiefs still knowing they needed Mahomes, except that I’d much rather have a 2nd year Smith than Young. Young might be able to get us into a playoff game but he will never win a Super Bowl. We had an MVP Cam and still lost the big game.
