I'm a little more pragmatic on the topic of team building. If you get it wrong, you get it wrong. Good intentions don't mean sh-t. Lord knows Marty Hurney had plenty of good intentions. Doesn't make me feel any better about the fact that he sucked.

I'm doing my best (insert Sean Connery quote here)

If you believe he's the guy, you don't pass on him. If you don't, then you do. Of course if you're wrong, and in doing so you bypassed someone who could have been "the guy" at another position, you've screwed up big time.

Tom Pelissero indicated that agreement on draft pick compensation was the easy part of the trade. Working out how they were going to split the salary was what took time.
-
Given his prognostication record, Sizzlebuzz predicting something's going to happen is about as close as you can get to a guarantee that it won't.

I get the feeling this thread will be as popular as the one announcing they fired Marty Hurney. Wonder which of those two transactions folks feel is the bigger relief.
-
I said the team needed to treat him like a rookie. Based on what he's said, it sounds like Matt Rhule agrees.
-
I don't really think this means anything as far as our draft plans at all. It's long been known that Bridgewater wasn't going to play here this year.
-
We got something for him. I'm fine with that.
-
Based on the assumption that Darnold will be bad and Fields will be good. As mentioned previously, you don't know if either of those things will be true.
-
There's a restructure of some kind involved but I haven't seen specifics yet.
-
To quote our old friend Eugene Robinson, "It's over!"
-
I think that's a lot of us. I haven't seen anyone definitively saying Darnold will be a star.
-
The Jets have said many times they weren't definite on trading Darnold. Even after the trade was done, some (including GM Joe Douglas) were questioning whether they should have.
-
It's actually not guaranteed that either of them will be available at our pick.
-
Joe Person acknowledges that in that scenario, you'll never get the kind of return that you'd get by trading down during the draft.
-
Most NFL coaches think they can turn bad players into good ones. Rhule wouldn't be unique in that idea at all. That just kinda comes with the territory. The prime example of course is up in New England.
-
You're wasting your time on that one. He doesn't have a clue, but he wants to look like he does.
-
Well I'll say this for myself. My opinion is based on actual information I read rather than TV shows on Showtime.
-
I don't remember if they ever said. I think someone speculated that it might have been the 49ers since they later went in another direction.
-
Just saw that. Yikes!
-
How do you square that with the report that they were offered a first rounder by somebody else and turned it down?
-
I'm not convinced the "Watson at any price" thing was ever really true, especially not after Fitterer balking at what the Dolphins wanted for number three. I don't doubt that we were interested. I do question whether we'd have given up as much as people think.

In Steelers land, Art Rooney is the final boss
Mr. Scot replied to LinvilleGorge's topic in Carolina Panthers
Months ago when Fitterer was hired. Rhule himself acknowledged it, but said he wasn't going to act like a dictator.
