While I agree with the first sentence. There are only a few GMs that are opened to deal as frequently as Nick. Every good player that's available Nick has been in da mix. We just opted for the wrong guys because 3 million more for Barkley was just too much. He might wear nothing but LLBEAN but a boring GM he is not.
Lovie had final say and he sais as much. You dont think Ryans would sign on to be HC if he didn't have final say on the roster? Look at the FA/draft moves and you tell me who is making the calls? 2024- Hunter/Azziz/Edwards/Fukasi/Settle/Barnett/Ward/Autry etc... in FA, draft Lassiter/Bullock in rds 2-3. 2025- Rankins/Speed/CGJ/Barnett/Smith etc.. Draft Smith Hamilton. You tell me where the FA big money investments have gone?
