I'm always a believer of taking the best player available. If you focus too much on one position you reach and end up taking Marvin Swanson in the top 10.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2801 on:** September 12, 2020, 06:18:14 PM »

That's true. Outside of the FG players, are there any players you'd really prefer to see back with us next season and any you'd rather be gone?

Talon · « **Reply #2802 on:** September 12, 2020, 06:32:51 PM »

I think our core players on the roster are obviously Mazza, Redd, Fellows, Evans, Little Mazza, and Scotty.. outside of that, I'm fine with guys staying or leaving, but no one is irreplaceable.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2803 on:** September 13, 2020, 02:13:56 AM »

Thank you for all your help this season. I hope to be working with you again.

Messrs Brewster and Rodriguez

Guys, thank you for your efforts this season. It's been a tough one but you have done your best but it's been a big ask in your rookie season. Unfortunately I will not be renewing your contract as I am going in the direction of more experienced coordinators in the future.

Thank you both for your time

Talon · « **Reply #2804 on:** September 13, 2020, 11:33:55 AM »

Well that's messed up. Not like we had much talent to work with, but hey.. do you man.

GM Wrong, thank you for the opportunity. I learned a lot.

*Sigh*

*Checks the news... Dreams of a happier time... Thinks of a happier time... Drinks gin heavily... Chews gum to mask smell... Braces self for the P45...*

Ms Barracuda please...

Talon · « **Reply #2806 on:** September 13, 2020, 02:27:19 PM »

GM Wrong.. What can I say? This was probably the worst case scenario, no .. the tie made it the second-worst case scenario. We have now done something no team has ever done before. back to back seasons without a single win.

I know you can right this ship, the fact that Lincoln is the #1 seed in the entire league is proof of that, but I just hope we show a serious step in the right direction next season.

I don't like the idea of terminating your contract prematurely, but if we don't show progress in the first half of next season serious changes could need to be made. I want you to be aggressive in your pursuit of talent this off-season. I don't want us missing out on our top targets. Is that clear?

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2807 on:** September 13, 2020, 02:30:47 PM »

I aim to use the first overall to bring in another franchise talent.

I aim to use the other picks to keep building this team up. If I am not bringing you wins by the halfway mark next season, you won't have to fire me. Thank you for allowing me to keep trying to prove myself

Talon · « **Reply #2808 on:** September 13, 2020, 02:50:34 PM »

Don't be afraid to pursue you talent in free agency either. They have a track record to base them on.

Good luck this off-season, take the post-season off and try to relax, if you don't this job will kill you.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2809 on:** September 13, 2020, 03:11:37 PM »

I'll try with both of those things but investing in talent may be tricky with what we've invested in big pieces and I will do my best to make that happen

Talon · « **Reply #2810 on:** September 13, 2020, 03:57:22 PM »

I look forward to seeing what you choose to do. Good luck GM Wrong.

Talon · « **Reply #2811 on:** September 24, 2020, 08:33:37 PM »

Ms. Barracuda has asked me to keep you up to date with our current situation.

If you look at the league community sheet you will find our current roster.

If you look at the Community Restricted Free Agent List you will see all the RFA's in the league and you should be able to find our own.

If you look at the League Community Coaching Sheet you will see all currently registered coaches. We can sign other teams minor league coaches to be our own coordinators or head coach; or we can choose from the list of available options in free agency.

The league is allowing us to contact up to 4 players' agents during the coaching signing period. They can be our own RFA's or our own contracted players to try to get a deal worked out to either bring them back (RFA's) or restructure/extend their current deals (our current contracted players).

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2812 on:** September 25, 2020, 01:17:00 AM »

Excellent. Thank you.

Dallas Prince please.

Mr Prince, I'm looking for a man to guide an offensive revolution here in Atlanta and I was hoping that you might be interested in the OC role we have open.

I feel you were treated badly I'm DC and were really shining. Would you feel you could work the challenge that is Atlanta and help turn our fortunes around?

Talon · « **Reply #2813 on:** September 25, 2020, 02:02:15 AM »

I'd love the opportunity to reboot my career and prove that I wasn't the problem in DC, like GM Dazz painted me to be.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2814 on:** September 25, 2020, 02:03:52 AM »

We are obviously lacking in the receivers department, but at a glance of our current team, would you be able to identify the other big holes that we have and what would you say they would be?

Talon · « **Reply #2815 on:** September 25, 2020, 11:41:47 AM »

I think you could upgrade at nearly every position on the offense. Running back, your second guard, your second tackle even.. but I don't know the kids you have on the team and what upside they have. This is from an outsiders perspective. You would need a quality tight end who can block to really make the run game work as well.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2816 on:** September 25, 2020, 11:47:53 AM »

Excellent stuff. I echo those sentiments and I feel you could be the man I need. I'm not going to beat around the bush. GM Dazz did you dirty.

I'd like to offer you a 3 year, 7.5mm deal. This is a rise on what you were on in DC and allows you the security of working with a stellar coaching team on a tough project.

Talon · « **Reply #2817 on:** September 25, 2020, 01:37:37 PM »

I'll take it. Thanks for the chance to pen a great comeback story.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2818 on:** September 25, 2020, 02:51:15 PM »

Here's hoping for a happy ending for us all.

Luis Brown please...

Luis, I'm in need of a DC here in Atlanta and you have come highly recommended. Can you tell me how you'd feel about an opportunity here in Atlanta?

Talon · « **Reply #2819 on:** September 25, 2020, 04:10:18 PM »

It would be good to coach guys like Evans and Stephens; I run a conservative defense that focuses on building up the secondary and playing the pass well, so reinforcing the run D in the front seven is important.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2820 on:** September 25, 2020, 04:24:22 PM »

And how do you look at the front 7 right now from an outsider perspective?

Talon · « **Reply #2821 on:** September 25, 2020, 04:44:33 PM »

The Linebackers are aight, I think they can be good enough, but I think if you add one more big player there the LBs are way better. Fellows needs a better running mate. The DT's are solid enough and look powerful as hell.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2822 on:** September 25, 2020, 04:46:34 PM »

That's really good to hear. I'm carrying out another interview or two but I'll be in touch either way

Foster Diaz please...

Mr Diaz, I have a vacancy as Defensive Coordinator here in Atlanta and was wondering if that is something that would appeal

Talon · « **Reply #2823 on:** September 25, 2020, 05:00:11 PM »

Damn right I would. I got a bone to pick with those bitches in San Antonio who cut me loose.. Time to remind them who the hell they let go!

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2824 on:** September 25, 2020, 05:03:25 PM »

I believe I sense a trend here...

Tell me a little about your philosophy as a coordinator and what you look for in a Defensive line

Talon · « **Reply #2825 on:** September 25, 2020, 05:16:37 PM »

I love loud aggressive and confident players who hit hard and bring the swagger of champions to the turf. I want a big powerful bull rusher on one side and a fast agile speed rusher on the other, strong run stuffers in the middle and a hyper athletic sideline to sideline linebacker behind them. That's the key to starting the foundation.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2826 on:** September 25, 2020, 05:17:45 PM »

Excellent stuff. Speaking of foundations, do you feel we have the foundation of what you would like here?

Talon · « **Reply #2827 on:** September 25, 2020, 05:24:52 PM »

You got bits and pieces. Fellows, the DTs, maybe Jackson.. then Evans obviously.. but yeah I can work with it.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2828 on:** September 25, 2020, 05:36:18 PM »

You know what, you have a point to prove and I want that to be here...

3 years, 7.5mm

Talon · « **Reply #2829 on:** September 25, 2020, 05:50:48 PM »

HELL YEAH. Bitch's gonna recognize this season.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2830 on:** September 26, 2020, 03:46:51 AM »

Outstanding stuff! We have a point to prove and I intend to do that with you and Dallas!

Ms Watson, please pass on my gratitude to Mr Luis Brown for attending but he has been unsuccessful at this time.

Deion Hester please.

Deion it was a tough season for all of us here in Atlanta but I'm keen to bring Stacey Desimone back to be kicking again for us.

I'd like to offer a 3 year, 2mm deal

Talon · « **Reply #2831 on:** September 26, 2020, 10:43:39 PM »

Deal man.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2832 on:** September 27, 2020, 02:32:46 AM »

Excellent stuff.

Kelvin Hart please.

Kelvin, Roy Hadden made a little progress in the minor's last year and I'd like to continue his development here to see how he progresses.

2 years, 500k

Talon · « **Reply #2833 on:** September 27, 2020, 10:13:18 AM »

There is literally no advantage to signing for the league minimum before anyone else has a chance to even offer. So no thank you.

GM Adam Wrong · « **Reply #2834 on:** October 01, 2020, 04:24:52 AM »

Would you consider 750k?

Talon · « **Reply #2835 on:** October 01, 2020, 02:50:43 PM »

Consider it Considered.

Talon · « **Reply #2836 on:** **Today** at 12:52:03 AM »

Hello, we have 3 open roster spots to fill and we are 100K over the salary cap with $2MM in bonus money.
