You've just devoted about a dozen paragraphs and a buttload of words to defending him in this thread alone, not to mention what you said in the other one.

So apparently you do 😄

Nope. I don’t. I only care that some people like the OP, oh I mean you can’t help but start anti-Rhule threads. Feel free to point out my I love Rhule threads. Dude, Rhule coached against Purdy. It’s OK that you didn’t know that.

It reminds me of Howard Stern’s movie/biography where Stern haters listened longer than Stern fans. I’m not a Rhule fan, just love getting your goat when you try to paint him as “the problem” when your guy Fitt was far worse. Adios!

Dude, you couldn't "get my goat" if you were a professional goatherder 😄

What you've done in this response though is basically admit that I own you since you want so badly to oppose me on anything...even when that opposition is stupid.

Not like it wasn't obvious anyway, but hey... 😁

Unless someone was asking him point-blank on whether he ever considered drafting Purdy, why would he bring this up in the first place? And if the question was asked, the answer comes across as deflecting blame, taking a shot at us and/or inflating his ego. Take your pick.

Doesn't even matter much whether his statement has any validity because he doesn't really have the credibility to have the benefit of the doubt here.

Stealing a line from Gantt, Matt Rhule has made people stupid for some time. I mean, Rhule is dumb, which helps out. 

Rhule in simple terms said a QB who beat him and he played against several times should be in their board…and he was told no or ignored on it by the folks who put it all together in the end. Which isn’t outlandish at all.  That probable scenario likely happens all the time in the NFL.  The, this random kid I like is someone I think should be on our board and doesn’t make it.  Teams have all sorts of people arguing for guys that don’t end up making the board.  I mean, that’s how a board is formed.  

every coach, scout, GM has a list of players they could say they liked and if only the rest listened….

Matt Rhule is an easy target.  Because he is a floundering coach at this point.  And he had always been dumb with the mic.  I would assume he largely is speaking a truth,  which is why he says to check the receipt on that and offers it up.  That doesn’t mean he is as fighting for Purdy.  Just that he mentioned a kid he knew….and was ignored in a draft he clearly was in the backseat on at that point

We don't know whether he made the draft board or not.

We only know we took a former Rhule recruit instead

Yet the last pick they made in that draft was a kid from Baylor, continuing the trend of taking players who used to play for him. Guessing he didn’t get vetoed on that one. 
 

I can’t take anything this guy has said on his way out seriously when he tried to take credit for the wilks finish saying that he established the culture.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      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.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      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
