"Before Steve Jobs took over Apple for the second time there was a guy named Gil Amelio who was the CEO when Apple was struggling. And Amelio's famous quote was Apple is like a ship with a hole in the bottom, leaking water and my job is to get the ship pointed in the right direction...

This reminds me of the Raiders. The Raiders haven't won a playoff game since 2002. Romeo Crenell, chuckie, chuckie again, Josh Mcdaniels, Jack Del Rio, Hue Jackson, Lane Kiffin. The Raiders are like a ship that has a whole that's taking in water...and Tom, and Pete you're there not to get the ship pointed in the right direction, you're there plug the hole. GET A QUARTERBACK. Every mock draft is LB from Georgia, Ashton Jeanty RB from Boise, Mason Graham DT from Michigan. You're in a league where all that matters is the quarterback stop drafting like it's 1990. And you can go to the super bowl with Jeff Hostetler or Mark Rypien or Neil O'Donnell or Stan Humphries, Dilfer. You can't! It's the national quarterback league. You've got Geno Smith. You need a star.  Trade up for Shedeur even though he's a pain in the arse. Then draft 5 others every year until you find your jayden Daniels. Plug the hole Tom."
