The lost draft capital is still real.

Yea and apparently it’s so important you can’t even remember where we were supposed to pick the other times it happened. 
 

No players tank. A third of those guys who played today won’t even by on the roster. They don’t give a poo where we pick. We moved down two spots, not ten. The crying after a win is crazy.

I wonder if he is doing it on purpose so he can leave. Didn’t we block him from getting HC interviews this offseason? 

No. Blocked him from lateral DC interviews only. He could still interview for HC positions

It’s really not a huge factor.  It really boils down to coach and QB, then put together serviceable Defense which can be piecemealed via free agency with the draft.  I don’t think the chiefs or the Eagles got there via a few draft slots.  I think we have the QB, jury is still out on the coach.  Keying solely on draft position picks to create a winning culture isn’t gonna work.  Coach/ QB, reliable D…meaning stop the run.

Me remember exactly where isn't relevant.

No, players don't tank. They have their own careers to worry about.

You're making zero relevant points here.

Draft capital is "real" but it's illusionary.  You have to assume the player picked ends up being as good or better than the round and number that he's picked in. 

So while draft capital is real, draft selection is anything but.  Who we draft is much more important than when we draft.  I think the continued building of the team culture and player development is much, much more important with this team at this time than tanking.

We're a team that needs a lot of quality players.  We'll get one.

      Canes got booed off the ice

      Canes in six what years?    I'll be shocked if they win one game not to get swept lol if you think that I urge you to go watch the press conference that's a team that's mentally beaten and has no answers.

      Disagree that CB is a massive need.

      This sentiment is really starting to bother me. Because, you are right. We do have one of the most well run organizations in the league. And, a lot of fans seem to think that Rod is that entire organization. This line of thinking completely discredits all of the hard work that GMs, scouts and players have put in to make the team what it has become. Not to mention the impact that the ownership change has had on the team. You will never hear me singing the praises of a billionaire. But, the fact is, we went from a cap floor team to a cap ceiling team under TD. Have we dramatically improved from the dark old days since Rod took over? Absolutely. But, he wasn't the only one contributing to that rise. And if he leaves, the house of cards isn't going to magically crumble. At this point, we've seen enough players leave and flourish (or come here and wither) to know that isn't true. The organization isn't one man. But, one man is responsible for setting lineups, line combos, d pairings and drawing up set plays. And, to me, that is what lost us these 2 games in embarrassing fashion. I don't believe that Florida is just some unbeatable juggernaut running roughshot over the league. Last I checked they didn't go 82-0. If you believe this is a personnel issue, by all means, bame the players, the scouts and the GMs. Blame everybody but RBA. If there was one player or position group to blame, I would tend to agree with you. When an entire team collapses, it's not on the players. It's on the leadership and they are the ones who should be held accountable.
