To stop the hemorrhaging, we have to stop trading away and trading for players

[TheBigKat]

Fitt needs to hit the pause button on this ‘in every deal’ mantra. This team is lacking talent and draft capital

 Gilmore- draft capital for a one year rental

 McGlassfrey- we got DJ and Mingo for him, ouch

 Young- no comment

 Henderson- ouch

 Darnold- ouch

 

 just stop…. We’re not one player away, we’re a head coach and half a roster away. Draft well and fill in with free agency, stop trying to be Ric Flair with all your wheeling dealing

In on every deal was such cringe the first time he said that

[Waldo]

So do what they haven't been able to do and we are good?

In on every deal is fine for checking in while hearing it out and moronic for not being able to qualify a good and bad deal...which is 100% in question given the recent history. 

I just don't see how anyone can believe in Fritters at this point. The good vs bad ratio is an issue that looks to be growing as his team building comes together this year.

The Gilmore deal I'm ok with. It was a future 6th two years out. That's peanuts for an all-pro caliber CB.

Of course they completely fuged that situation not being able to sign him long term by waiting on deshaun watson, but that's another story.

Fools and suckers are in on every deal. That's why they are encouraged to participate in them.

McGlassfrey?

I told y'all not to be surprised if he suddenly becomes much more durable if he's traded to an actual contender. Lo and behold...

more like "fleeced on every deal"

Unfortunately Fitt wasn't in on the one deal that was a no brainer...

Ya, he was healthy under Rivera and his S&C team. Rhule brings in a glorified highschool weights(I can’t remember if it was weights or nutrition) guy as head of S&C and CMC turned to glass. Back under a real S&C without an absurd work load, he’s fine again.

If I had known Fitt would be this horrific at drafting, I would have never supported the McCaffrey trade. Yeesh.

Fitt and Gettleman were just horrid drafters. At least Marty hit all-pros in the first round every year.

Not over-leaning on the one stud that produces no matter how much everything else fell apart is also a huge factor in his injuries here. He was a crutch for the bad here and it showed when he went to a coaching staff that wasn't trash. 

[Hoenheim]

Strongly agree but we also just need to draft better in general. Check my draft thread most of our drafts in the last decade have been horrible

Tepper needs to hit the pause button on Fitterer's monthly pay cheque.

I think he was holding himself out with niggles.

Dude didn't play in his Bowl game in College - it's in his DNA to think of himself first.
