Knows the system and players and is respected. Most importantly he knows the Austin mindset and team culture Austin wants to build and maintain. Wasnt like there were quality DCs out there either.

Mr. "Try winning with some class" Jones. Treats a probable Hall of Famer and team god Durant like garbage and goes out a signs the biggest douchebag and locker room cancer in the league.

johnzo Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) Reinbold has been a good STC, hasn't he? I think the Duron Carter signing makes sense in one light. The guy is like Milt* in that he'll get his thousand yards and his TDs no matter who is throwing the ball. Carter could be a fantastic security blanket for a baby QB. All he needs to do to succeed is be a good teammate and not say things that make his baby QB punch him. * of course he is unlike Milt in just about every other way.

Equating Carter to uncle Milt in any way ought to be a capital offence. You've been warned.

The NI part had a lot to do with Best and Labatte both being out at same time. Muamba helps on that front and hopefully a healthier Oline will see us looking a bit better. Our cupboards are a bit bare, need to draft another Olineman in first round this year. That part will take time. While I agree with your analysis, Best and Labatte are critical to the Rider NI depth... you have actually gone on to agree with JPan on both fronts... see the part I bolded...

Atomic Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 If they open the season with Glenn as #1 that's gotta be a pretty tough pill to swallow for Rider fans. I can't see it happening. More likely we see one of their young guys in for 4 losses to start the season and then Glenn takes over. SPuDS and Dee Urban Hermit 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't understand how Jones can justify going from Durant to Glenn. You took one aging veteran and replaced him with a worse aging veteran. Sure there are some cap savings but geez.

Maybe he thinks he has a starter but wants some insurance? You're going to pay Glenn a lot less money to hold a clipboard than Durant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judd Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) They need Glenn regardless, even if they get Franklin. I could see Jones still pursuing Franklin in a trade then releasing all their nobody quarterbacks.
