Watch the video of Rhule and Fitts talking about the Corral trade and pick.

Rhule couldn't care less. It just seems really obvious he had no desire not just for Corral, but a rookie QB period. Seems like Fitts convinced him that they had to take a QB and Rhule was probably like well fine then, this guy and Fitts was likely high on Corral too so it worked out. Well, it didn't work out but they were in agreement. Maybe it was McAdoo banging the table for Corral but I'm not sure how much sway he had in the room. McAdoo just seemed like someone that was forced onto Rhule that Rhule never really wanted to begin with. Tepper probably told him to get some real NFL experience on his staff and he came up with McAdoo and Wilks.

I dunno, seemed like Rhule and Tepper were all in on getting Corral.

Why the fug are they talking about him then, why the fug didnt they have a draft board and simply stick by it?  And why the fug are first year OC giving this type of input during the motherfuging draft?  Goddamn what a clown show.   This feels like a drunken conversation my fantasy partner and I had this past Sat night.

Are we sure that was a Fitt pick?

 

I think Rhule made that pick.

Well, if he was a Matt Rhule dude….he drafted him and immediately gave him the red headed step child treatment and gave him essentially no work/reps in camp.

The behind the scenes stuff is gonna be way more telling than the pressers. Publicly, every team always gets everybody they were targeting and they're all thrilled.

The one aspect I agree with is that it was always obvious Rhule preferred a veteran while Fitterer wanted a draft pick. My guess would be Tepper ruled on that particular discussion, but once it got to draft day and it was time to pick, Rhule pretty clearly got impatient.

And of course afterward, he got Mayfield so Corral went to the back of the line.

Not immediately.

Immediately after we got Baker Mayfield though, yeah.

Rhule had a 7yr plan remember?

 

He was going to unleash Corral later down the line.

Corral was part of Rhule's second 7 year plan, unless PJ retired earlier.

McAdoo was our “rockstar” OC remember???

Even if that was true, the UNC fans weren’t saying it out of objectivity - they were saying it out of bias. 
 

anyways, not a corral defender. Glad he’s gone. Also glad we have Bryce. 

But if a UNC fan was being objective about a UNC player in his or her honest estimation, you would call it bias.  That puts the bias on you, not the UNC fan.

There should be no fuging discussion on draft day.  You have a draft board and you have to live by it.  I mean its only takes years and years of research to put it together

McAdoo technically had way more NFL pedigree than Rhule did.

Mind you, that didn't mean he was good.

I don't know why people are crapping your post. I mean, it's true we could have had Howell instead and saved that third rounder. 

cause I'm a tarhole homer, but regardless, it was more the fact that we just couldn't stay patient/stay the course. Do that and some other team reaches for corral while we maintain draft capital and get the better player. then I'm also poo on cause we have Bryce which is awesome but injuries are a part of this game and if we have to see any of andy dalton I'm going to be reminded of how much better our back up QB spot should have been when he's out there throwing hospital balls to our WRs and pick sixes to opposing DB's

Yeah, if you can watch that conversation and come away with the idea that Fitterer is the guy pushing for Corral, you probably need your ears checked.
