Harlan is play by play. Olsen and Brady are color analysts.

yeah I know, personally I just lump all announcers together and pretty much can't stand listening to most of them and just mute the TV. I will listen to Harlan and Greg though.

Over Romo? No. And none of them touch what Jon Gruden was. 

Romo used to be solid but has been incredibly annoying to me that last few years. Gruden was the best in the last 10-15 years that's for sure.

At his start Romo changed the game, but that was mainly due to him sitting in on meeting and breaking unwritten rules about the game plan. He dropped fast after that great start. After Greg's first year, he passed Romo for my taste. Greg was talking too much and nervous his first few games, but once he got with the flow, he is the best right now.

I liked prime Gruden too, he had 10 something years of great passion and he did reward my ears. I wish he would do it again, "they" have let him back in the machine. Maybe he will pick up a mic in the future, he's been on pods and still has "it".

Without any hate added in, I would say that Olsen is about two to three times better than Brady. Olsen came in as a natural. Brady seemed somewhat uncomfortable in the beginning, but has shown signs of improvement. Romo does a decent job as well. There's something about knowing the game, and, as a fan, I always appreciate ex-players-turned-announcers who not only know their position, but everyone's position.

Brady only got the job because of his accomplishments on the field ,Greg is much more charismatic and entertaining and just as knowledgeable 

I was hoping he would really be our coach, but Caneles is doing alright 

 

 

You beat me to it. Charisma. You can hear how much Greg LOVES football. He’s enjoyable to listen to. I could only imagine seeing him and Luke team up on a Fox crew. 

Brady was awful. Smug. 

Greg could be a devastating offensive coordinator if he chooses to get back to the field.

    • Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure. 
    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
