Scott Fitterer.... let's grade his drafts and FA signings

I'm not sure if the jury is still out on Fitterer or they have not even started deliberating yet. 

Our owner made such a mess of the division of responsibilities about who did what and to what extent is mostly unknown.  We know that the guy who had the personnel control in his contract was shown the door.  We also know he was a control freak who wanted to control everything down to the toilet paper used in the bathrooms.  We suspect that sometime after the end of the 2021 season how much control he had was altered by the guy writing the checks, but we don't know to what extent.

It was an NFL version of the MASH episode where they are dealing with a supply officer who is a lieutenant, getting nowhere, asking him who his boss is and he replies "my sergeant."

The best anybody can realistically give Fitterer right now is an incomplete.  The others involved in this comedy are not nearly as fortunate.

Reasonable as far as we go...

That said, during his interview with Will Kunkel, Fitterer basically stated that he and Dan Morgan were the lead in the head coaching search.

That would tell me that at least as far as Tepper goes, there's not any need for "deliberation".

(and that's consistent with what we've heard from other sources)

That’s fair. Start the scoreboard after Rhule. 
 

Traded best offensive player for the equivalent of a mid 2nd rounder. 
 

Turned down 2 1sts, and 37 this year for the privilege of paying a player 25M+ a year. 
 

  Let’s see how these work out.

Walking away from the Rams offer for Burns really, well, burns.  I reluctantly declined on the two firsts since they were 2024 and 2025, but when they added their second this year, which most of us knew would be in the top 10 picks of the second round, well, you run to the bank with that deal.

And the logic is much the same as it was for trading CMC.  Not sure how we didn't either pull the trigger on both or walk away from both.  We were either selling players not on their rookie contracts or we weren't.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
