You forgot Tony Gonzalez.

It's a process.

all this, and he could've kept Tony G (just because he requested a trade), kept Connor Barth (and used the pick he used on Succop somewhere else), traded to Dorsey to ATL when they were still willing to give at least a 2nd for him, brough in Hasselbeck when Haley wanted him...

**** mother****ing **** shit **** bitch

No wonder no one worth a **** will even entertain the idea of dealing with Pioli anymore. He's a JOKE.

you are right. Had he kept Tony G we would have never had to see that awful scenario where he trades back up in the 3rd to draft Tony Moeaki with Jimmy Graham and all those other good players still on the board.

he could have saved himself some reputation from not looking like a stupid asshole taking a brokedick from his boy Ferentz because of the Cleveland Browns suck n **** tree of shitheads

Pioli let good players walk, drafted mostly average-at-best guys to replace them, and won less games than Herman ****ing Edwards...

:mad:

this is why he should be fired today.

Not anymore, especially in a pass happy qb league.

I was with you on Carr.

It's all about the right 53, any good players should not remain as part of that.

Oh, absolutley. This is how I see it going down....


- They will let Bowe walk outright, getting nothing for him. They will ride heavily on his drops and "lack of production when the game is on the line" over the years as a reason to not invest superstar type money in him. He will go to a team with a high tier QB and dominate.

- They will offer Alberet a laughably bad contract. Lowball him, expecting him to take the "home town deal" approach. He'll decline, go to a better team offereing a mil or two more a season, and be a solid contibutor for them.

- They will be stagnant again in free agency, believing they have the players here that will buy into the message the staff is selling. Expect to be right at the floor limit in spending next season.

-They will franchise Colquitt.


All of that equals me saving thousands yet again next season, as I don't spend a dime at the stadium on Sundays.


(DISCLAIMER - All of that is subject to change if Pioli and his minions get the boot)

ROFL :deevee:

Had we given the $$ to Bowe it would have been one thing, but we let Carr walk and now we are in a bind with Bowe. Yuck

On one hand, I can see what Pioli was trying to do with getting rid of Gonzalez and Waters. They werent buying into what Pioli was selling and you dont build teams around aging Tight ends and Guards.

Ultimately, Pioli just sounds like an arrogant D-Bag who has a way of turning players off. Its Amazing about how much JWhit was right about Pioli 3 years ago.

We need a document outlining these failed personnel moves and how they affected the team to the minutest detail (i.e., cutting Barth, drafting Succop and Barth has been the slightly more consitant kicker; tradin Tony for the pick used on Javier Arenas, who is a decent special teamer but a liability in coverage, etc.)

And then hand them out at the Cincy game.

I wish it had been possible to keep Carr and Gonzalez, and I really hope Bowe and Albert stay, but to be honest until they get a QB that can drop and accurately pass downfield this discussion is meaningless. I'm more upset that they didn't resign Orton than Carr.

Sitting here in Atlanta watching Matt Ryan everyweek it is easy to see that Cassel and Quinn are a waste of time. Who cares what CB leaves when your QB cannot execute plays over 10 yards. And it is good to see Gonzo getting to play with a real QB.
