  • The things that supposedly demonstrate bad coaching - penalties, giving up, bad execution - is the bane of every coach during a rebuild or down season. When you lose, when you know a reset is coming, people get lax.

    As far as energy goes: Our players - and the fans - have been very loyal to Vrabel in the past. We’ve said that he’s “the type of guy you go to war for”. We point to his time on the practice field giving personal pointers, and we’re proud of that. Vrabel succeeds in a unique way, but fails like every other coach on a bad team. Maybe another available coach will be smarter, more inspiring to the players, but I can’t think of anyone who oozes that sort of confidence.

    The one thing I think is NOT the problem is playcalling. There’s no OL, so they can’t choose any play that takes time to develop. We run screens and runs and dinks, and that’s all we have at our disposal. All these OCs and coaches we fired all had the same problem - they couldn’t make something out of nothing.



  • Draft:

    DON’T TRADE UP.

    R1: MHJ, or if not there, best LT available.

    R2: Best speed WR available (or LT if we somehow get MHJ)

    R4: best CB available

    The rest: solid role players, no gambling. Draft needs from this point on (in order): C/RG/RT, LB, S. Keep an eye out for Will Reichard, K, Alabama, in the 6th or 7th.

    Free Agency pickups money priority goes to (in order): Edge (many options), CB, C/RG/RT, WR, RG, LB. Only make a big WR splash if there’s fuel left in the tank. Don’t get Tee Higgins - he doesn’t have the hamstrings for it. Try Tyler Boyd or Michael Pittman.

    Re-signing priority (in order): Deandre Hopkins, Denico Autry, Derrick Henry, then everyone else. Lowball Fulton.

    Release Wesco. Release Tannehill, or lowball Tannehill and release Willis.
