Scott Fitterer Set Us Back A Decade w/ Two Trades

[App Panther]

Ya sorry, another Fitt thread, but this my outlet at the moment. 

Trading CMC and then trading the farm for Bryce Young who looks pedestrian at best may set us back an entire decade.

This is franchise killing stuff in two moves. Like the Seahawks sent us a trojan horse.

CMC trade doesnt matter in the long run but the Bryce trade will be an all time disaster. Like Everrette Brown trade times 5 million

I'm kind of on the other side as time goes by.

I honestly get packaging Moore to make a trade for a top QB.  It sucked, but you swallow that pill, take the gamble, if you think you found your guy. I understand the gamble.

What I still really don't understand, is we had a perpetual OPOY candidate, 26 years old, one of the biggest stars in the NFL, the best possible guy to have for a rookie QB, and the first step we take into a rebuild was giving him away to the top team in our own conference for a few mid-rounders.  No players in return, just a few draft picks.  

Someone, please explain that to me.  

I guess it made some sense at the time to collect assets, but we didn't blow the team up! We tried a soft reset.  The more that time goes by, I'm trying to understand exactly what we were trying to accomplish with that.

I agree. Had we traded Burns too I would have understood we were going for full rebuild. We could have used the Burns picks for drafting more assets to help Young. Instead we only traded CMC who would have been a god send for Young and this putrid offense.

If you are Tepper I have no idea how you look at these moves and say, ya I got a savy guy running things.

Don’t forget to add the Burns non-trade. It’s like we went all in for a full rebuild, but then said “nah” for a kings random for Burns. Now we can’t even figure out how to pay him because he thinks he’s worth Bosa money and he’s absolutely not. That’s going to be the one that leads to Fitt getting fired imo. You can’t overcome that. It’s a GM cardinal sin.

We have a first round pick in 2025.

At worst we find out Bryce sucks next year and then draft his replacement then.

Yep it's these half-hearted resets/rebuilds that are killing me. Ownership/management keep being fooled that we're just a few pieces away. Stuck in this awful cycle.

And in the process miss one of the most talented QB drafts in recent memory. There’s so much talent coming out in 2024 it’s almost stupid. Imagine not trading DJ, sucking this year, and being in play for Caleb Williams. That’s what we fugged ourselves on.

Jesus this fanbase sucks.

2 games into his rookie year and he's already been written off.

Unbelievable.

Not losing sleep over trading a running back.

Virtually all of his other moves are meh or terrible though.

Well when he looks as bad as he has then takes will come in hot.
