I preface this by saying I would not want any developmental players in this draft. No Taco's, or players that need time. Without the playoffs this year he's as good as gone. I would want big time program players that can start immediately.

I would go after a top notch guard and WR early. We know we need defense, but if I'm JG I'm doing what I know is going to get me in the playoffs. Grab a Hernandez, or Wynn, then James Washington or Sutton, Ridley, whatever it takes.

Same goes for FA. I would want contributors, not depth signings.

It's a make or break year and he can't think 3-5 years down the road at this point. It's win now, or end up being an OC or something this time next year.

It's not what I want to do, but it's what I would do if I was trying to save my job.
 
Like most head coaches, Garrett does not run the draft.

He has a voice but he is not the deciding voice. I think his voice is even less in free agency. That’s all Stephen Jones and Will McClay.

Plus..rookie receivers very rarely make an immediate impact. Yes you can surely find some examples but I can find a ton more examples of players that took a year or two to develop.

If you want an immediate impact, get the most athletic, best tackling linebacker you could find or a guard you view in a similar light as Martin. I don’t really want a guard first round but that is your best chance for an impact player as a rookie considering the veterans he will be sharing the meeting rooms with.

He may not be in charge of the draft or FA, but if my butt is on the line I'm telling the scouts and McClay what I want. Don't be surprised if we go offense early and often. It's what he knows and it's "Dak friendly".
 
Well, he has no other choice. It's at least Championship game or hit the road. Odds are against him.

Well see- You have balls, my good friend.

Remember Jason's initial press conference after he was officially named head coach? Jerry stated there will not be one player here Jason doesn't want. LOL, wonder if that's still the case.

It is a shame but I can see the FO keeping Garrett even if he misses the post season in 2018, you know they need that payoff from all those years of him being in training...process to completion and all!
 
Garrett may not be in control of the draft but he is in control of the game or at least he should be. Yes he has an OC. and DC. but he should be aware of their every move. He has unlimited challenge Flags when it comes to the decisions that they make. If your team just ran the ball three times for 25 yards and its first and goal from the two, and your OC. comes out in an empty formation, you need to challenge that. Positive reinforcement is a good thing but so is a kick in the *** when needed.
 
Another misguided belief that taking an OG at 19 is the solution to our OL problems.

Like robjay said WR normally dont contribute much the rookie year but I,m with you on guard and swing tackle.
Red needs to make a big turn around this year but his job is safe. Next year is the hot seat

If we fire Garrett I think he goes to college or just retires all together.

I don’t think he will play 2nd fiddle ever again and I can’t imagine a team letting him call their offense.

You forget JG is a deflector. He can blame the culture and Jerry meddling or anything he wants. Plus he's smart so he will interview well. I wouldn't hire him, but others most likely will.
