This has been the best offseason the past 10 years easy and FA hasn't even started yet


Recommended Posts

-Got a baller coaching staff. I was lukewarm on the Reich hire but he is addressing the issues that led to his downfall in Indy (retread aging QBs after Luck retired, poor coaches after Sirriani went to the Eagles and poached the Colts). Great mix of up and comers and established assistants. 

-Finally addressing the QB position after the shitty Merry Go Round of has beens, busts, and XFL MVPs

After years of losing interest because of Matt Rhule, and the decline of Cam before that, it finally feels good to have intrigue in this franchise again.

This thread reminds me of the "We've already won the Darnold trade" after Week 2 of 2021. 

Gave up the only offensive weapon we have, very may well pick a QB who we could've had without trading up, and collected more dead cap in exchange for the opportunity to do so. It'll either be the trade that makes people cringe, or one that was still a lot but netted the right QB. 

Either way, good luck to him, because a couple TMJs and a couple Shi Smiths are not gonna be fun targets when camp starts.

You trust the guy who paid Ian Thomas and Dante Jackson over Hasaan?  Last off seasons signings outside of Bozeman who fell in his lap for cheap left a lot to be desired.  He can make up for it this FA, let’s see if he learned anything.

Lazy post. 
 

We paid Luvu instead of Hassan. Value wise, I believe it was a smart move.

We are trending upward and have national attention during the dead of off-season. All eyes are on us now for the first time since 2015. We absolutely cannot eff this pick up. There are enough coaching years and wisdom in our war room now to prevent this from happening. 

Hit on pick #1, given the state of the rest of the NFC South, and we become a dominant force for the next decade. 

TL/DR:

    • Canales has his msjor issue not doing the obvious regarding running Dowdle but with an average QB we would be in the playoffs with an average QB. 
    • 1. fug TikTak, I ain't clicking that stupid poo. 2. This is really very situationally dependent. Coaching is a huge part but sometimes you step into a scenario where a lot of building needs to happen that is largely out of your control. Recent examples(Last season's hiring cycle): 1. Ben Johnson Johnson chose the OVERWHELMINGLY best open coaching job due to a combination of solid ownership, a solid front office and the most talented roster of the open jobs from that cycle. Negatives were, insanely stacked division. Results have so far indicated that this coaching change has been a massive boost. 2. Mike Vrabel Vrabel went a different direction. He went to a franchise that has solid ownership, a mediocre front office and one of the worst rosters in the NFL. However, he has a track record of NFL head coaching success AND lucked into one of the easiest schedules in NFL history(I believe 3rd easiest). Even with that caveat, a clear indicator that coaching has been a huge boost. 3. Pete Carroll Carroll chose one of the NFL's most volatile franchises. Notoriously bad ownership, very bad front office and a terrible roster. But, Carroll is a HOF caliber NFL HC with success at every stop. At the moment, coaching has not been able to overcome the apparent obstacles. In fact, it's been a complete disaster to the extent that Carroll has already fired multiple coaches. One could certainly argue that pethaps Pete has lost his touch but regardless, this coaching change didn't result in a turnaround and Carroll's future there seems in doubt. 4. Aaron Glenn Glenn's first HC opportunity was a doozy. Near worst ownership, a mediocre front office(at best) and a talented core group of players on an underwhelming roster. This experiment has been quite the ride to date. Glenn's personnel decisions have seemingly led to multiple close game losses(2-5 in games decided by one score or less) and the FO decided to have a roster firesale prior to the trade deadline for a wealth of draft capital. The question will be if Glenn will be given the time to actually see this future draft capital realized, now that a significant chunk of the talented core is not longer there. Coaching has not made a difference but is the franchise now setting him up to fail further? 5. Liam Coen Coen picked a mixed bag. Terrible ownership, a remade front office he essentially had a hand in selecting(or at the miminum influenced) and a middling roster. The early results show promise even if the roster shows significant flaws(and Coen shows visible frustration with his "franchise" QB every Sunday). Could be close to turning a 4 win team into a playoff berth. Coaching has mattered. 6. Brian Schottenheimer This was resoundingly viewed as a bad hire but it's also under challenging circumstances. Bad ownership in the sense that the ownership is also the front office, a future Tepper dream I assume. Very talented but very flawed roster. The initial results have been...interesting. A Cowboys team that was a bad 7-10 after a previous streak of three 12 win seasons is now....mediocre? Couple that with wild roster changes prior to the start of the season and up to the trade deadline and it makes for an incomplete picture. It's not much progress but it doesn’t appear to be regressing either. TBD. 6. Kellen Moore Moore chose the most challenging of all openings. The Saints are in the midst of a simulateous roster teardown and attempted rebuild. Decent ownership, a mixed bag in the front office(great at evaluating draft talent, less so in free agency and in salary cap management). The Saints have been awful but, they were expected to be awful. To that note, they were net sellers before the trade deadline. It was reported that Moore secured an agreement that this is long term building effort prior to taking the position so his status seems safe even while the team flounders week to week. Difficult to grade this now as the entire scenario seems to be a long term strategy. TBD.
