Data-driven decision-making is science and art.
Players are wearing masks in the locker room. A bug is going around
Absolutely give him a call and investigate

Will BB draft a high end WR though? Not another Bourne or Agholor, I mean, a 1st round pick on a burner WR...he actually should...as long as he's not a bust.this
He never kept her in the loop...that and apparently Vrabel wants more say and power.my first thought. i have 0 idea why he was canned and why now. i'm thinking, "did he walk into strunk's office and whip it out and slap it on her desk?????" i mean what the actual...?? no one in the media i heard yesterday understood it either though they were all "told it was a football only decision". well you just gave the guy a big fat extension in the offseason. wtf has he done since that's 2/3 of the way through the season fireable????
Why would we want this guy? So we can pair him with Bill O’Brien? I hope not.my first thought. i have 0 idea why he was canned and why now. i'm thinking, "did he walk into strunk's office and whip it out and slap it on her desk?????" i mean what the actual...?? no one in the media i heard yesterday understood it either though they were all "told it was a football only decision". well you just gave the guy a big fat extension in the offseason. wtf has he done since that's 2/3 of the way through the season fireable????

firing him for 1 wr trade when they've never had a losing season under his watch is dumb. he predates vrabel by 2 years.Why would we want this guy? So we can pair him with Bill O’Brien? I hope not.
He got fired because he traded away AJ brown, who just plastered them for 100 and 2, and replaced him with Robert Woods and Burks who’ve done nothing. Burks can hardly get on the field. Their secondary can’t stop anyone. Vrable has had that team dramatically outperforming their talent.
Or maybe Vrabes walked in and flooped it on her deskHe never kept her in the loop...that and apparently Vrabel wants more say and power.
i thought he cut it off?Or maybe Vrabes walked in and flooped it on her desk
Yeah, and note that Cannon, Cajuste, McDermott, and Wynn are all FAs. That leaves...just Trent Brown, who will be a 7.75MM cap hit, only 1.25MM of it dead money. Plus Steuber, the late 2022 pick (but my understanding is that the staff didn't think he had a future). I smell a positional reboot! I could maybe see re-signing Cajuste for short money.Sure that's a possibility, but I can see us looking to invest heavily in OTs.
I have to believe that Wynn is mercifully gone and Trent Brown has been absolutely bi-polar. Cajuste isn't the answer, nor is Cannon. I think we will absolutely draft one or two solid prospects and add some veteran depth in FA. Bill never overreacts to an injury-depleted position, but I think he's likely had enough of trying to run an offense in which the edges are so vulnerable that it impacts the whole flow of what we're trying to do.
I know Trent was playing with an illness last week, but there were times when he appeared to be going through the motions. I thought it was a terrible performance. He worked hard to shed weight since we reacquired him from the Raiders and yet has been banged up and penalized for holds and pre-snaps and has had a number of sub-par games sandwiching a couple of games where he looked, I thought, very solid.
I can't take much more of this issue and think it should be the focus of a major overhaul in the offseason, but we're still in the middle of getting ship-wrecked and we've got
to make it to shore alive before we start thinking about getting rescued.

FAs on the OL are pretty spotty this year. I don't see us spending $20MM+/year on Orlando Brown, but I wouldn't be totally floored if they picked up Conklin from Cleveland, Fant from the Jets, or shorter money for Dillard from Philly if his health checks out. McGlinchey is available, and if they want to continue to move towards majoring in zone blocking that may be an investment that makes sense...it would certainly be a clear signal. I'll wait until the offseason to go into the FA OTs more deeply.
Draft? Always in flux, but there are a bunch of guys who are probably in the mid-1st through 3rd round that could fit. My favorites ATM are Wright from Tennessee and Cohen from Alabama, both currently generally slated as ~3rd rounders, along with Paris Johnson from Oohi, but he's currently slated mid-first, and I don't think he's worth that high a pick. Probably. Maybe.
Feels like every team in the league wants OTs, so acquiring OTs maybe more difficult than the expected.Yeah, and note that Cannon, Cajuste, McDermott, and Wynn are all FAs.

We need him as a blocker since our OL is so bad. Sad but true

The oline definitely needs to be addressed as well...Sure that's a possibility, but I can see us looking to invest heavily in OTs.
