My biggest issue with Fitts has been misreading the draft and having back to back years with trade up panic picks. First he did it with MC. This year he did it with DJ. Grabbing a LS instead of a day 2 grade guard. It's just one thing after another. But you have zero chance of building a good roster of you're panicking on draft day.

Happy to be starting Moesert this week in Huddle FF league.

Being the number 1 puck in the NFL draft is pretty much the definition of asking for this. You're going to a bad team. It's not a good situation to play in. But you're making 8 figures and are set for the rest of your life if you behave financially. If you've ever seen an NFL draft, this is exactly what to expect as a draft pick.

After Miami drops 70 on us and costs Tepper his shot at the office fantasy football pool.

62-14. They miss an extra point.

No he can't. I personally don't think he's ready to start yet. I get why he is, but Minshew has looked better so far. He needs some time to learn the NFL game. He also needs to learn how to preserve his body. Even Josh Allen has had to cut back because his body can't take the abuse of being a power runner all game. Cam was the first to have his career shortened because of relying on athletic ability too much to carry his offense.

I was an AR guy. I always thought he had the lowest floor and highest ceiling if he could get the right coaching and system. Steichen was probably the best HC he could have gotten. I also don't think he was worth moving up to get. He was a project pick. At 9, that's a good pick. Trading up to get him, no. The only pick worth trading up to get was CJ.

I wanted AR and Stroud. I had no interest at all in BY. He was going to have to be the exception to every rule regarding NFL QBs and that's not a guy you trade away that amount of capital to get.

He's Hassan Reddick.

They can get way more for that first pick than Brian Burns if they wanted to trade it and not select a QB this year. That pick can get 3 1sts and probably a couple of 2nds.

You can't trade BY without firing Reich, Fitts, the whole damn scouting department and Tepper selling the team. Anything less won't matter one fuging bit.

Tepper will be at 2 practices this week

It feels like this team is just something shiny for the new owners to play with until they've broken it to the point it's not even recognizable anymore. Then they'll lose interest until there's a sign of life, play with it again, and break it all over.

No one is trading for Bryce. They've all seen the same poo we have.

Insider tips work better on hedge funds than the NFL.

Won't matter unless Tepper fires himself.

Good to see that appearance at practice brought results.

fug it. Let him get canned.

We drafted Rosen.

I think the same thing I thought before the draft. In 2 years we're going to have BY in the same category as Zach Wilson, Sam Darnold and Trey Lance. He played behind one of the best olines which gave him time. This isn't college and these defenders aren't college level. I think the game is too big and fast now. I also hope I'm wrong. Time will tell.

So you're saying my hopes for the future are coming up short.

I know it doesn't happen with interdivisional trades, but I could see something like London and Pitts for Burns

If we're trading Burns it needs to be at the deadline to a team that is in serious SB contention like the Rams thought they were. Trading him now would only yield less and at 0-4 and already realistically out of the playoff hunt given what we've seen so far and based on history, we won't get max value. Personally, I don't want Tepper, his wife, Fitts or Frank making a pick next year.

Makes perfect sense for them and we're desperate enough to do something monumentally stupid so.... Teppermagic
