An honest conversation about Fitt needs to be had.. he is the worst drafter in the league he sucks trading as well I think he might be the worst gm in the NFL no wonder he couldn't get a job and had to take the job as a glorified team manager he stinks 

There are legitimate critiques to be made about some of his picks and acquisitions but reactionary posts like this just make it difficult to have honest conversations about some of his missteps.

I tried to be. Lasted a couple weeks.

I forced enthusiasm and I think a lot did. We were desperate for something good.

I haven't had to force any enthusiasm this year.

With Baker all I saw was the same song and dance we had been doing the last 2 years. 
So I had a hard time supporting Baker, well technically I never supported him. Since he stunk from game 1. 
Rhule just never understood you need a franchise QB. You can’t keep rotating QBs year after year and expect to make a consistently winning team. 
I still believe Rhule didn’t see the QB as a valuable position, which may of been his college state-of-mind since it seems that QB is less important in college than the NFL. 
Rhule thought if he could build a good team he could plug any QB in and it would work.

I haven't had enthusiasm about the team in years. I was hopeful that something would change, until they signed Baker. I knew then that we were screwed until they canned the fool and cleaned house.

But I'm stoked about the direction we're going now!

You don't know anything about me so you don't know how old I am I remember Clausen and that was still a better move than Sam Darnold now name a good move Fitt has made? I'll fuging wait man 

Bro.... u serious ??? 

Your seriously underestimating how bad that season was. It did net us the #1 pick and Cam...but Clausen was undeniably awful here.

Eagles win 2018. Last time I felt truly good about this team. 
That team was a Super Bowl contender before Pittsburgh.

I think I lost mine the 1st game of 2016. At least that's when it started.  The league was making sure a Cam led team wasn't going to be treated the same as everyone else. But that is a different story.  I guess it truly set in the day they brought Hurney back.

And it would be super easy for Nebraska fans to dismiss the NFL stint for Rhule and get excited.  I’m not sure Rhule is a bad college coach.  He was a bad NFL coach.

I think Rhule is a decent college coach.  He repaired two schools that were in terrible shape and made them respectable.

Fitts fate (and reichs for that matter) is clearly tied to Young.  If he pans out he will be here for a while but if in 2 years or so it doesnt we reset the clock to 0 and try again

    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
    • Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
