  1. That's a not so great moment in draft history for about 20 NFL GMs.
  2. General belief is that Moton will be getting the franchise tag. Fitterer is said to be a good people person. Maybe he can talk him into re-signing.
  3. I probably wouldn't either, but how often do you get an opportunity to be an NFL head coach? Watson wants him and Mahomes recommended him, so I definitely understand if the Texans hire him. What I guess they have to hope at this point is that Nick Caserio can turn things around. And I'm pretty sure Caserio didn't want his first newsworthy action as GM to be losing DeShaun Watson.
  4. Being reported now that they've officially signed him.
  5. A little later in the presser, he explained how he was going to kick Triple H's ass at WrestleMania. Also, per the Lions Twitter, this is the nameplate outside his office.
  6. FYI: Aaron Wilson seems to be hinting that the Texans are going to choose between Eric Bieniemy and Leslie Frazier.
  7. Gotta believe that decision has a lot to do with Carson Wentz. Kinda makes sense. If you can't get Frank Reich back, take one of his people.
  8. Earlier today it was reported that the Steelers are talking to Hue Jackson about their OC job. Things could get really entertaining in Pittsburgh next year.
  9. Aaron Wilson indicated there's progress toward that happening.
  10. Just saw that the Eagles named Colts OC Nick Sirianni head coach.
  11. We're gonna get three quarterbacks? I'm pretty sure there's time between now and the start of free agency to take a picture or two.
  12. Between saying things like "enough of that sh-t" in his introductory presser and this, I definitely get the feeling Dan Campbell is gonna be entertaining
  13. Speaking of pressers, here's a quote from Dan Campbell today... "I can give you coachspeak all day long, ‘Hey, we’re gonna win this many games.’ None of that matters and you don’t want to hear it anyway. You’ve had enough of that s–t." I get the feeling Fitterer won't be quite so...animated
  14. In his first draft as a GM, he picked a guy named Aaron Rodgers.
  15. is that something you want to count on, though? I just can't get behind this kind of move given where we are as a team right now. If we were further along maybe, but I just don't see this as the right time.
  16. This could be interesting... Jackson is actually a really good OC and playcaller, but good grief is he an a--hole to deal with. If you watched any of Hard Knocks episodes with the Bengals, you probably know what I mean (he used to drive Mike Zimmer up a wall).
  17. Like say, behind the lousy offensive line that you're stuck with because you gave away some of your top picks?
  18. Henny Youngman's been gone for a while now On a sad note, I won't be surprised if Fitterer mentions Ted Thompson at some point tomorrow. Thompson held the title that Fitterer most recently held in Seattle when Fitterer first got there. They were colleagues for his first few years with the Seahawks before Thompson eventually moved on to become GM of the Packers. Thompson passed away today.
  19. Bit of sad news... Thompson was Vice President of Football Operations in Seattle when Scott Fitterer arrived there as a scout. Fitterer ultimately ascended to that same title before becoming GM of the Panthers.
  20. Not sure, but I do notice the theme that Jacksonville seems to be building around with their latest hires is "enemies of Jim Harbaugh".
  21. "Pretty damn high" would also potentially be a description of our salary cap.
  22. You know my first reaction looking at that scoreboard pic? It really is a new day for this team. Jerry's gone, Marty's gone, so now maybe we can finally get off the hamster wheel and hit the ground running. Feels good
