Albert Breer: both Reich and Fitterer back in ‘24

Outside of financial details I don't think there's any decision you can peg solely on Fitterer. He doesn't strike me as that type of GM.

He was spared because it was mostly on Rhule but he definitely shouldn't get a free pass on those years. Empowering him was about giving him the chance to clean up the mess he helped make. If he can't do that he's next on the chopping block.

Finances fall under Samit Suleiman.

Fitterer's experience is primarily draft related, though he was given free reign by Tepper to build the front office as he saw fit. That includes the hires of Dan Morgan, Adrian Wilson, Cole Spencer and others as well as promotions of existing people like Rob Hanrahan and departures like Pat Stewart.

Personnel decisions are, by all accounts, collaborative between front office and coaching.

More from Diana Russini...

I got the sense from her article that if anybody is in danger, it's more likely to be Frank Reich than Scott Fitterer. I get the same sense from this video clip.

At the very least she talks about ownership "having discussions". That's not Tepper talking to himself and I wouldn't bet on it being Tepper talking to Nicole either.

But could it be Tepper talking to the front office?

Yeah, I think that sounds logical.

That’s some next level everybody’s fault but Young’s narrative. Learn to accept nothing less. 

Hell no they will not give up on Young after a single season. And with a year coming up soon where they forgot to trade the 1st rounder, the floor’s the limit. 

OMy sources also confirm that ownership has lost their blind faith that the Super Secret Backfield Limbo-Mesh Bubble-Scream Offense is playing to Young’s strengths, as Reich had promised in the job interview. They want to see more stretching of the backfield.

    • Smith-Wade for me. He has the path to some decent hefty snaps in Evero’s scheme. He held his own last year and improved as he continued to get snaps— If he makes some strides, could be a very capable nickel.  I agree with Sanders. Bryce had some trust in him that final Falcons game post crazy head-stand.  Bryce looked for him a lot that final game and made some critical catches to get us the W. Seems he’s put in major work so I’m hopeful about him.  Wallace will have an offseason under his belt. I like him a lot, was higher graded than most remember in his draft (I.e Brugler had him LB3/70 overall) but he isn’t as cerebral of an LB as we’re used to. I think he could thrive if we get D captain/film-junky type next to him— because right now that’s Jewell.  Still a bit cautious but love the talent. Rozeboom may snag some playing time from him if he’s still working out the kinks.
    • Didnt Canales already say starters are playing in the pre season? either way extra reps dont hurt but im not one of those people that think playing in the pre season would have saved Bryce from an awful start.
    • very helpful.  I read back in this thread where they might try Jarvis at C--I thought he and Aho had good chemistry, however.  Nonetheless, he could expand his value there, and now we have a guy who can play jarvis' spot.  Freddie is a pro, no doubt--and as little as I know about the inner workings of strategy and positions, I could tell Burns was burning us at times.  I figured he'd retire and I was looking forward to it.  FWIW, they have Jarvis listed as a C on the 2025-26 roster.
