WFT's Off-Season Thread

Isn't this a sign coaching and scouting staffs did due diligence finding 0% diva / 100% I just want to play guys ?

Envoyé de mon SHV48 en utilisant TapatalkNot really, I know where you are going since I used Rodgers v GB, but my point is that no rookies -diva or not- can hold teams hostage like that because of the NFL's rookie cap. I agree with Matty that was one change the NFL/NFLPA got right.

I hadn't seen this:
MAY 13: COVID-19 ENDS THE TRYOUT:*According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, WFT will not have tryout players at its rookie camp this weekend due to COVID-19. A positive*test returned among one of the five players in the tryout group. Washington now will not have any of those players at the minicamp.*

Guess no canadian bacon in the defensive backfield.

Might have missed a particular change this year, but didn't we use to have guys sign their rookie contracts a tad bit later than that even recently ? And not all at once ?

I wasn't thinking about massive contract situation like Rodgers, rather the usual small negotiation that makes it so you have to wait just a little bit before EVERY rookie has signed.

Episode 63 of Al Galdi's pod (https://toppodcast.com/podcast_feeds/the-al-galdi-podcast/) is an absolute must listen IMO.

Good takes based on Ron's comments that if you look at recent history, except Brady nobody is winning several SBs, you'll find a lot of one timers à la Nick Foles in SB QBs, that is you get Tom Brady it's great, but you can do without, and shouldn't force it if you don't get Brady.

Nice take on the fact that signing Fitzpatrick in a year everybody is giving up the farm to get a chance at potentials franchise QBs is zigging when everyone else is zagging, and there's some smartness there.

Call me crazy but this team is starting to resemble the 1991 Redskins...right down to the QB no one thought could do it.

Pass the Koolaid!!!
We went 10-6 the two seasons before 1991 and had solid rosters both years. We are much improved but not a SB team.
Comparisons of FitzAverage to Rypien are ludicrous. Rypien was one of the most accurate deep ball passers in the history of the game. Lots of people thought he could do it.
We last won a playoff game 15 years ago, talk about SB run ludicrous.
Let's win the division with a winning record, beat more than one winning team, and win a playoff game and take it from there.

Rivera did it once, and this WFT team with a green QB played toe to toe with last year's SB winner.

If our schedule didn't include all 4 conference title game teams and 5 of the other 7 division winners, I could see this team doing that same turnaround. But we do, so I am not saying we will go 15-1. I am saying our roster is worthy of a deep playoff drive, IF our offense shows consistency.

Here is an article on passing accuracy I found interesting, and he has a paragraph where he discusses Fitz directly.

And here is a chart from that article reflecting 2020 passing metrics that puts Fitz in pretty good standing.

Last year we had 16 total passing TDs. I can't imagine the offense being worse.

Look who at bottom…also Smith avg air yard 5.1 backs up those who say he checked down a lot. There is the data
