Well I’m hoping they make me look foolish. I mean do something with even one of them ffs.
You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman. You can go to live in Germany or Turkey or Japan, but you cannot become a German, a Turk, or a Japanese. But anyone, from any corner of the Earth, can come to live in America and become an American

Actually.. they ALL could have gone somewhere. I get the sentiment, but factually you couldn’t be more wrong.

Yea, devastating. But still possible for them to pull it off. It really does still start with drafting/developing better. This isn’t such a big deal if the drop off after the first half dozen players wasn’t so drastic.

Well hopefully the new coaches can actually make players better

The ones they resigned were minor role players and were not real sought after players( I know you'll say Ford but beyond last year he didn't do a thing) So NO I was far from wrong. You sign your main guys first and get them out of the way and then move on to the others.

Is this the "crazy" Guard market people were talking about?
Sounds about right in line with what I would think would be appropriate for an ok starter.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

I figured because it's tampering day and we have a tampering day thread, i'd use that.

Got really busy the last hour or so...just heard Samaje is coming back...so, no guards that we need are off the board yet?

The guard market is one of the few markets that have stalled a bit.

This is good news for us. Was afraid they would all just fly off the shelf and it would be left bare.
