It was ideal in 2020. Now is too late for our division.

No offense, but what are you talking about?  With Brady leaving, all 4 NFC South teams will be looking for a QB.  I'm pissed we didn't rebuild earlier, but given our division, having the #1 pick and a chance to take the best QB is objectively good timing.  Still doesn't erase the awfulness of the past 5 years, but we are certainly not too late given this division.

Seriously though, if the dynamic was Rhule had FINAL say on the draft, trades, and signing people he really wanted then I strongly feel that Fitterer and company (Morgan if he sticks around) have at least one draft where they can run things the way they see fit along with input from the new HC.

This HC having the final say was the knock on what Rhule wanted when he was the "hot" college HC candidate and MANY NFL teams didn't even take time to play his game.  Tepper fugged up bad by not firing Hurney and buying his BS a year too long.

We can only hope things can be turned around.  I hated the winning/losing/winning/losing season crap, but I would take that in a heartbeat after the last 3-4 years.  What I want is sustained success.

With a full compliment of 2023 picks again, I will be glad to see what Fitterer can do in a traditional GM role again. 

But, if it looks a lot like his previous drafts, there is no Rhule there to blame. It will be on him.

That's exactly where i'm at. We got a good LT but the rest are.....meh. Here's to hoping

Yeah, it's been a little of whiffs with a lot of swings. There were some obviously pretty terrible and obvious Rhule/Snow picks, however.

Maybe Fitterer can prove to be much more of an NFL professional.

I will say the first two moves in the post Rhule era(trading Robby and CMC) have definitely looked like good moves. I can't fault him at all for what he got in return.

Hes trying to imply cam newton should have been your favorite player.

That’s what I’m hearing too. People can call me biased but I loved Cam while he was here and was objective with the timing of his play here. There have been many on here that have been itching at an opportunity to celebrate Christians injuries and ultimate departure since he walked across the stage on draft night.

      Yeah, Bryce has to put that a little deeper. But XL can't allow the pick there. Gotta become the DB when you're undercut like that.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By TD alt · Posted

      You see, I just don't subscribe to a cookie cutter type of philosophy when it comes to trades or team building. Every situation is different. Many may disagree, but I think that FOs that can't draft impact-players beyond the first round aren't really viable.  Just for argument's sake, because we all know this hypothetical trade is as realistic as the moon being made of cheese, Micah is a young dawg really just beginning his prime and is arguably the most valuable pass rusher in the league. He could realistically play at a high level for at least the next five to seven years. Parsons' current trajectory is Canton. That being said, he's not some old merc that fits the mold of "one piece away," he's a core piece to any defense for the better part of the next 10 years. Pass rushers of his caliber and age don't generally become available, so, sure, he'd help an elite team, but he's also a fit for a younger team that's building. I know that you don't agree, but it's all good. I respect your rationale.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      Here's my not important take on this subject.  Who wouldn't want a pass rusher of his consistency?  I would absolutely love to have him on this defense.   Would I give up Brown in a trade for him.  Nope, I would never do that.  Interior linemen are way to important to be settling for whatever you can get at the position.   Would I trade 2 firsts,  plus fork out a big contract for him?   Without knowing if Young is for sure going to be our long term, franchise guy,  there is no way I'd be okay with letting go 2 firsts. As for the contract that he'd demand, I just dont get caught up with NFL contracts.  They have been out of control for decades.  So I really dont get upset over big contracts. It's just a fact of life in the NFL.  You HAVE to pay for talent.
