Did Scott Fitterer draft any good players?

I still think those first two years fall on rhule, but his 1st year at the wheel was nothing short of terrible results for both draft and FA players. 

20/20 and allll, but I think tepper should have hired a former GM instead of a rookie one. 

No need to keep blaming Rhule for 2022. The 2022 draft was all Fitterer. Rhule was fired early in the season and was forced to change coordinators. We had tons of threads in here from some of our top posters about how Fitterer had taken the off-season reigns. Rhule isn’t going to be in charge of a draft while on the hot seat and this forum posted articles saying that. Fitterer trade ups in 2022/2023 were almost identical and Rhule isn’t sitting on the hot seat with Corral as his guy. I’m sure he asked for Mayfield.

He's been dealing with some life issues and probably doesn't want to continue to be berated about his outspoken support of Scott Fitterer over the years. Now on the one hand I say at some point we have to let him move on from his mistake. On the other hand though many here know how condescending he could get toward anyone that challenged him on the subject. Funny enough on the subject of David Tepper he used to tell me personally I was being paranoid and engaging in conspiracy theories because I felt Tepper was involving himself too much in team personnel matters. Well look where we are now and look what we know now. Mr. Scot has previously and still can bring good content here. But if he wants to move on from his position on Fitterer he needs to just admit even the man who he used to badmouth on a regular basis for being an awful GM (Marty Hurney) is and was significantly better. At least he could hit in the first damn round!

He had great content and was a logical dude but not sure why he was infatuated with Fitt. He was shockingly bad and I don't think he'll land another job in the NFL...Old numbnuts Dave got burned again trying to fast track success with out due diligence...

But its a big pick.  One buys you longevity and a super bowl run and the other causes you to get fired

I’m not arguing Fitterer was better, but if you look at the whole body of picks I don’t think there’s a big gap.

Fittererer is unemployable in the NFL... let that sink in.

So whether or not Bryce works out we won’t be good until after his rookie window has closed

IMO, most likely not. We will see what we are able to do but I don't see a winning season for a while.

Plus I seen the Seahawks hired a new VP of something, high ranking tho. Passed old 14 year friend to do so.

Fitts is living off tepper for the 2024...

Hopefully the roster would be built up enough where it could be like an Alex Smith/Chiefs situation where it’s time to draft the Bryce replacement because the game manager isn’t taking us past the first round of the playoffs

Horn is elite when healthy and was the right pick. He’s better than Surtain and the injuries couldn’t be predicted. Ickey is really good, one down year in a clusterfug of bad coaching and Mr. No Pocket Presence doesn’t change that. I’m confident he’ll get back on track. Christiansen and Chuba are decent. 

Hard to have pocket presence when your o-line has more holes in it than a strip club at closing time.

Where is said strip club you speak of?

Building the way KC built would be music to my ears even without a Pat Mahomes at the end of that tunnel.
