I will say, I am feeling very good about staying put and landing a top wideout to really elevate this offense. We needed an offense defining type player and got that in Tet.

In retrospect, I really don’t know if I would have felt as good getting Mykel/Etc and a lesser WR — sacrificing not getting a day 1 WR1 and reaching on D.

Honestly, we got the same level of talent/potential in R2-3 on defense that we were gonna get in a trade down.  Won’t know until we see results but it was a really smart draft strategy this year. 

Heck, even if we traded down, who knows maybe Golden may have been in the cards over defense.

All Dan and team in the piece

 

Tepper only mentioned once.  If accurate, improvements are being made

The video made it seem like Tepper was there as a sounding board on pick values for trades etc (cause he does know numbers), and his opinion on specific players was not solicited

A significantly more subdued Tepper in the room than in previous years' videos

I think the old narrative was greatly overstated but they can portray this however they want. It took a month to produce this.

Brandt came out of this looking like a future GM, he is likeable, smart and a football nerd. 

Side note the rams getting Tmac with Puka and Adams would have been insane. its no way, Tmac wouldn't have been great for them

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      I agree, but I've already said that the players will definitely take more money up front because it's more security. But they want more guaranteed money and NFL FOs don't want to do that for several and various reasons, and that's what's at issue.  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-second-round-rookies-finally-starting-to-sign-what-took-so-long-and-what-it-means-for-future-contracts/ It's a tug of war between teams and players, and, sure, paying a player a signing bonus may satisfy them, especially if--and sometimes "only if"--it ultimately leads to a guarantee of more of their contract, but the teams are on the hook for all of those guarantees when cap time comes, so if they guarantee more money, they're ultimately losing the contract game.

      TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
