Culture

This is where I think Tepper initially got himself astray. He was so obsessed (and might still be) with building a "winning culture". You know how you do that? By winning. By running a competent football organization that the coaches and players believe in. This isn't the Field of Dreams. This isn't "if you build it they will come". You can't will yourself and hire and fire yourself to a winning culture. Just focus on building a competent football organizations and the wins will come and the "winning culture" will take care of itself organically. You can't put the cart before the horse. You can't create a winning culture before you achieve football competence.

All the firings of not just the coaches and GM's but of office personnel, social media members basically walking away just to escape the environment (at least during Rhule). Horrible start to building any culture aside from the culture of people coming here just to milk Tepper of x-amount millions of dollars and move on to greener pastures. It's almost to the point where if someone comes here and it doesn't work out, it won't even hurt their resume because the next team they work for will definitely believe their side of the story over whatever word Tepper puts out about them. I was fine with keeping Wilks as HC but honestly he's probably in a better situation now than if he'd gone 4-13 with Teppers QB and gotten fired for it

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
