So if I read you right, you are not happy with Fitz' Contract?

Define 'Reach'. I have heard this word used for a couple decades now and its only used with Media and fans. A player is not a 'Reach' if you feel his skill set fits what you want to do and you feel he will be the player you need at X position for the next 12 years or so.

If G Smith were the #8 pick I would feel much better. The bottom line is no coaching is going to fix Fitz. He is what he is and that is a journeyman backup. Fitz = Kelly Holcomb. No one in the NFL besides a Nix/ Gailey combo would ever have allowed him to be a starter and paid him that much money. Now these stupid decisions are continuing to set us back.

I posted that wrong. Their actions 'Say' they didn't believe there was anyone there. Sorry I kind of posted that wrong. As for as what Whaley says, it's 50/50 he is putting up a smoke screen in an attempt to try and get someone to move up and allow us to trade down or more possible put pressure on the guys ahead of us to take QB's when we really want someone else which makes the odds the player we really want will be there. I can't disagree with that at all. And I am of the mindset, screw scouts, media etc. If I believe X player is going to become what I want him to then I take him and don't risk losing him by waiting.

The man is spot on. Whatever they have used for the last 15+ years needs to go in the trash. Time to revamp the entire process

I like the new HC, new DC, but the OC has done nothing in the NFL and again we are going to fail to address QB, but its because we bypassed talent in previous years. It is going to be SOSDY at OBD for awhile.

And that feeling stinks. T Jax to compete with Fitz? Everyone knows he will never lead us anywhere near a superbowl, cut him and move on, but our new HC and Nix (who hitched his GM legacy to the guy) have kept him. What sucks is if the Defense really comes on and we end up 6-10 to 8-8 and there is really good QB talent in the draft next year. Now we are too far up the draft chart to get a good one. Nix really set this franchise back by thinking Fitz was the real deal and ignoring QB for 3 years. This franchise will always be handcuffed and never see a superbowl again until QB is finally addressed with a top tier talent and for the forseeable future, we are handcuffed with average to below average talent.

Its nothing but same old same old at OBD

I have to say this QB crop isn't spectacular but to say there is no one in this draft that can do more than Fitz is crazy by OBD.
