From the sounds of the hierarchy of the power inside the building Reich may not have final say on which qb is taken. Having said that it's hard for me to see them not letting him have a huge say in which one that is. But ultimately if there is disagreement between Frank and Scott I think Scott and Tepper make the call. That's just how I see it playing out.

Yes, I do think Fitterer will have ultimate say - I do think he will take Frank's opinion in high regard though. I don't think Fit is going to stake his career on Richardson though. Not being under the pressure he is now to deliver, anyway.

The coach usually has the most say about players they want. The GM has to actually seal the deal and the owner has to pay for it. But I can't think of many situations where a HC coach was forced to take a QB he didn't want and it worked out well. I can think of a few where the coach had to take someone he didn't want or they were under contract already and it didn't work out.

    • Well I should also say another caveat is positional value. You have to be careful violating that. For the scenarios you are describing, those are also things that free agency is for. Free agency should always set up the draft. Improve the roster and then go shopping for things to potentially take your roster up a notch.  Lastly, we are in scenario 2. Our roster is still not good and we have holes at most position groups. We are actually in the "BPA All Day" range.  
    • what's a lie?
    • I'm very interested in seeing the specifics of these cases. The term "illegal gambling" makes me think this is unrelated to typical sports betting/point shaving and related to something else on the side. That kind of stuff worries me much less than something like we saw with Jontay Porter happening on a larger scale. I absolutely think the feds need to be keeping a much closer eye on this stuff given how much more sports betting is going on these days. I honestly don't care that much if it's a Calvin Ridley situation where a player is betting on league games that he's not playing in; I can see why that isn't allowed, but I don't think that presents a major threat to the integrity of the game on any kind of large scale. IMO, the larger threat to sports in general isn't a large-scale organized crime operation but a bunch of smaller operations or even just individuals who are willing to do what Jontay Porter did. He was a relatively insignificant player in the grand scheme of things, but it's entirely possible we see this type of thing more and more even at the highest levels of sports. If gambling is going to be legalized to the extent that it has been, there needs to be better regulation and a very strong set of rules in place for the sportsbooks, the bettors and for the leagues/teams themselves. I don't get the sense that is the case right now.
