Letting Brandon Beene walk set us back 10-15 years.  

Get ready for that 2.0 when evero gets hired as a HC, he takes Morgan or someone from the FO, and whatever team gets them is in the playoffs in 2026. Meanwhile Carolina will still be recycling QBs

This just takes into account the draft. Look at all the BS trades he made... When we hired him, his forte was digging out great talent after round one and deep into the later rounds... allegedly. Who knew they were talking about him digging out the most succulent bits at the buffet....

Oh I know. I just don't have the bandwith tonight to create a whole thread based on his other moves. Obviously CJ Henderson, Miles Sanders, and Ian Thomas's extension lead the list.

I got roasted on here for saying repeatedly that Fitts should follow Rhule out the door. Well, here we are.

I mean as soon as he walked through the door there was just bonehead decision after bonehead decision. Trading for Darnold, fine, but you pick up his $19m 5th year option? What the f*ck. All his trades up in the drafts have been disasters. Have any of his draft day trades worked out?

His best draft pick is probably Icky and that’s not saying a lot after what a terrible game he had today. What is super weird is they went up there last season and didn’t have that problem under Wilks.

Certain people where to busy trying to blame everything on Rhule.  Just because Rhule had “final say” doesn’t mean he was coming up with all the bad ideas.

Having a bad team is the result of many things, but poor drafting and roster management are the catalyst. 

Let's take a look at what he's done so far:

2021:

Jaycee Horn - good but hurt all the time and therefore useless to the team

Terrace Marshall - Bust

Brady Christensen - Serviceable but out for the year 

Tommy Tremble - Bust

Chuba Hubbard - looked ok last year but now can't crack the lineup over Miles fuging Sanders

Daviyon Nixon - Cut

Keith Taylor - Had maybe the worst game I've ever seen from a CB last year against Pittsburgh, cut

Deonte Brown  - Bust/Cut

Shi Smith - Cut

Thomas Fletcher - LOL

Phil Hoskins - who? 

2022

Ikem Ekwonu - looked ok last year, terrible so far this year, not trending in the right direction

Matt Corral - cut/bust

Brandon Smith - cut

Amare Barno - not an impact player, buried somewhere on the depth chart, special teams guy at best

Cade Mays - awful, probably shouldn't be on the team

Kalon Barnes - I don't even know who this is, but apparently he was cut

2023

Bryce Young - incomplete, no way to know if he's any good or not, some troubling signs

Jonathan Mingo - incomplete, seems to be able to get open, has potential

DJ Johnson - a dumb pick even for Fitterer, and that's saying something. Can't even get a jersey

Chandler Zavala - playing only because he has to, spent most of today in Dalton's lap. Probably sucks

Jammie Robinson - see DJ Johnson

 

So out of 22 draft picks for Fitterer, nine have been cut and aren't on the team, at least four others should have been cut and aren't NFL talent (Tremble, Marshall, Mays, Barno), one can't stay healthy, and the rest are incomplete and/or have major question marks. If you want to know why we suck it starts with having a bottom 5 GM who has no clue how to manage a team or evaluate talent. He was the one constant for the recent sucking besides Rhule and Tepper (who we can't do anything about). Now that he has successfully mortgaged our future it's time to move on as soon as possible. 

Yeah. When a grown man doesn’t have a clearly identifiable Adams Apple, but a nut sack where that should be. Be afraid

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
