Mr Tepper who should I draft?

Several years ago, I became a school administrator after serving as a teacher and assistant under some terrible administrators.  While I had a voice and I picked my battles carefully, I was frustrated because I may have had a voice, but I did not have control.  I imagine that Morgan's association with the leadership team was complicated, and Morgan seems like the type who would learn from observing how NOT to do things as much as how to do things.  When I was awarded my own leadership opportunity, we immediately turned things around--not because I was awesome (unrelated fact), but because through their errors, I learned what to do.  That is my only example, but I was affiliated with some poorly run schools led by idiots.

I can appreciate that. I'm not convinced that is what we are seeing, however.

I just shared a post about Morgan to Linville because he needed an attitude adjustment! 

Seriously, Morgan is not kicking the can down the road.  He added a second rounder instead of spending one--as Fitterer was prone to do.  He seems to have a vision by focusing on the OL in free agency.  I do not see the same type of mistakes being made.

We will see. This draft has been almost entirely 2018-2023 Edition to a tee. 

It would be better for you to be right but I am just not seeing it. Seems all so familiar.

I can say this--If I were a retired billionaire who owned an NFL team, staying away from the war room would be impossible.  I would, however, not be a part of the decision making about players--but my ego would be so out of control because self-made billionaires are so much better and smarter than mortals, at some point, I would not be able to control my excessive wisdom.  (Joking--thinking like a billionaire might).

Yea and no. The first year we drafted Horn, Fitt just kept trading back stock pilling  picks.  All those players he drafted were poo and mostly off the team. Morgan is a Fitt clone.

 I mean we did keep the same scouting department of the Fitt era, as well as some holdovers from about 7 years ago so...

It's how all those failures here got the job in the first place. At some point it just has to be called what it is, more of the same with new twist. Morgan was a big part of the failures of last year and this year he is making his own so it's 0% surprise. This team is built to fail and at this point I'm just thankful to Tepper for one thing and that is that it really is entertaining even if it's for all the reasons I never wished for. I wouldn't be shocked if it's another 2 win season. Spending all that money on OG and then ending up with the C they have lined up is going to be peak Tepper quality entertainment.

Fitterer made his name/debut in the draft trading down and acquiring picks.    Morgan’s mimics that to a degree. 

and when asked, they both claimed that wasn’t their plan going in.  But I’m not sure how true that is because both went about it pretty quick

I was looking at the big picture of the job, I suppose, and not the draft habits as much--that could indeed be an acquired taste from being in the Fitterer war room.

We won't know a darned thing until about October 15 when it comes to our drafting today. So, in the meantime, might as well be optimistic about it.

IMO…it is infuriating that he and Nicole are even in that room.  Tepper is such an ego maniac.
