The barometer on whether Tepper has learned ANYTHING in this clusterbomb is what he will do with Fitter on Monday

If Scott F stays, that means Tepper is not about to relinquish quasi control on football personnel / operations, he wants a yes man who presents to him and Nicole FA options / draft options to choose. It has become clear as day that Scott Fitterer is no more than middle management paper tiger, just does what the boss tells him to do and will be the fall guy when needed. Fitterer's body of work is damning enough for any reasonable owner to fire him.

 

If Fitter is fired and we hired a true President of football, a competent GM and start a true coaching search, then MAYBE Tepper has called other owners and taken heed as to ways to run a team (Biscotti comes to mind, GREAT owner in a small/er market)

Fitt is Tepps yes man, so I wouldn't be shocked if he stays. He already apologize to him for getting him to trade to #1 when they had a deal to move up to #3.

Tepp may feel like it's not all on Fitts since he is the real one calling shots and overriding some calls.

Big picture, I don't think he has learned anything.  I think he is learning small ones.  That largely don't matter given the primary problem.   Primary problem is Tepper.  And Tepper thinks he can fix it by staying involved.

      Yeah, Bryce has to put that a little deeper. But XL can't allow the pick there. Gotta become the DB when you're undercut like that.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By TD alt · Posted

      You see, I just don't subscribe to a cookie cutter type of philosophy when it comes to trades or team building. Every situation is different. Many may disagree, but I think that FOs that can't draft impact-players beyond the first round aren't really viable.  Just for argument's sake, because we all know this hypothetical trade is as realistic as the moon being made of cheese, Micah is a young dawg really just beginning his prime and is arguably the most valuable pass rusher in the league. He could realistically play at a high level for at least the next five to seven years. Parsons' current trajectory is Canton. That being said, he's not some old merc that fits the mold of "one piece away," he's a core piece to any defense for the better part of the next 10 years. Pass rushers of his caliber and age don't generally become available, so, sure, he'd help an elite team, but he's also a fit for a younger team that's building. I know that you don't agree, but it's all good. I respect your rationale.

      Here's my not important take on this subject.  Who wouldn't want a pass rusher of his consistency?  I would absolutely love to have him on this defense.   Would I give up Brown in a trade for him.  Nope, I would never do that.  Interior linemen are way to important to be settling for whatever you can get at the position.   Would I trade 2 firsts,  plus fork out a big contract for him?   Without knowing if Young is for sure going to be our long term, franchise guy,  there is no way I'd be okay with letting go 2 firsts. As for the contract that he'd demand, I just dont get caught up with NFL contracts.  They have been out of control for decades.  So I really dont get upset over big contracts. It's just a fact of life in the NFL.  You HAVE to pay for talent.
