Does anyone else immediately stop watching the draft videos when Tepper pops on the screen to talk to the draft pick?  I just get repulsed now at the sight of him and the sound of his voice.

I don’t mind him. He’s definitely villainized around here but honestly if you just accept that this organization was a fuging joke lonnnnggggg before he bought it and will be lonnnngggg after he is gone, it makes for a much more mellow, pleasurable Sunday viewing experience.

I mind.  Because it’s one thing to suck and suck with humility and a willingness to learn.  It’s another to suck and think you have it all figured out while you act like an asshole.  From throwing drinks on fans, to the hires, to the fires, to the “basement dwellers” comment about his own fanbase for calling him out on his idiocy.  His face pisses me off.  His voice pisses me off.  But I agree with you Montsta…  I’ve never been more apathetic or indifferent when it comes to our team for the reasons you mentioned.  I accepted long ago we were an incarnation of the Browns.  Hope it turns around and we find our footing under this regime…  But Tepper just irks me…

I mean, I am repulsed by it, but Canales does turn it around pretty quick.

I always put myself in other peoples shoes, and I feel like, do they even know/care about who the linebacker coach is right now?

But it will probably mean something to them down the road when they establish that relationship and reflect back on the night, so I tolerate it.

I am just thankful he has been less involved as far as we can tell lately, and it seems to be paying off with our PFF A+ grade for this draft.

I will hold my thoughts until we see how much up Dan and Daves ass he was in the draft confidential if they do one this year. His vibe feels like more hands off this go round but they haven't really given anything substantial media wise to decipher yet.

I feel like with guys at Tepper's level of ego, even getting them to take an imaginary backseat is an accomplishment.

The only cringe-worthy thing from the call videos that affect me is Dan using the words "man" like it's universal punctuation.

Then I feel bad for him because he's so happy but all he can say is "man" every other word.

IMO basically everything this time of year is worthless filler and not worth watching but yeah, if someone was so inclined to watch any of it I could definitely understand tuning Tepper out entirely.

The Teps appear to be super hands off in the D&D world compared to earlier.  The drink incident seems to be The turning point

Nothing wrong with "I'm the owner, welcome to the team, here's Coach"

Compared to, let's say, Dallas draft videos where Jerry is front and center? Tep is almost an afterthought 

The full Draft Confidential, if it's released, will tell us more.

I think Tepper gets a bad rap.  The team was going downhill before he bought it. He was a new owner and took his lumps, but I do feel like he's learned and has the team in the right direction. It seems that when things are bad it's Tepper's fault and when they start turning around it's someone else's credit.  Morgan was a good hire and Canales was a good hire.

      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.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      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.
