Agree, would have loved to have seen him here with a chance to work with our guys and think we would have been a somewhat better team, but at this stage, hell to the fuck no! NO MORE RE-TREADS!
There is zero alternative to landing the rookie QB that we groom to be our QB of the future, period, no-stop!
Was listening to a really compelling national radio show the other day while on the road. Forgive me for not recalling who, but he had done a ton of analysis on rookie QB's and when they arrived. Went back pretty far and took a look at all the "highly" drafted QB's that have succeeded and identified HOW LONG it takes on average. By his calculations, 2.9 years, so essentially you see emergence in year 2 but it is not until the 3rd year that you see the full game in place and that QB is regarded as a keeper= a team leader that displays all the tools to power teams to winning records and you know he is going to be a long term player at the position.
So, with that said...
Fuck Ballard, send his ass out
Offer Harbaugh $15M per year, if he says no, offer Belichek or Payton $20M per year
Identify the QB that you deem to be the QB that will lead this team for the next 10 years
If that is the # 1 player, f-k it, trade whatever it takes, grab him
If we can get that player at whatever pick we have (should be top 4-5) then great, that's the pick
Sell off anything of value and get nothing but youth for this team. Buckner, Franklin, Nelson, Taylor, Moore, Gilmore, hell if anyone will give us anything decent, Leonard... DITCH everyone that will be on the downside in 3 years, no reason to keep them here, where reasonable accept 4th 5th 6th rounders- just get the damn picks. Use the draft capital to load up on both LT and Edge in both this draft and next years.
Get rid of the old 80's fucking Mellencamp music, shit-can Blue, stop with the stupid damn Anvil. Completely remake this damn franchise starting right fucking now.
