It's made the (GM) job tougher and more unpopular. Because the easier way to go is to sign the popular veteran that's really a good fit in your marketplace, but not a good fit in your salary-cap management. In my mind you make at least three or four of those decisions on a yearly basis now. You used to have one of those, at most, every two or three years. - Rich McKay Quotes

Yes, I would, absolutely, ... There are prototypes that have proven somewhat true over the years. I think it's valid, and there's something to that. But I'm never going to look at just one or two guys and live by that deduction. You cheat yourself doing that. The Florida receiver thing makes a nice story, and it is supportable with the names you've got to work with, but that kind of trend is true in a lot more places than just Florida, and it's true at more positions than just receiver. - Rich McKay Quotes

I think Mike works hard and has a lot of responsibilities. They went to the Super Bowl this year, and I think he needs a little time off. I didn't think it was driven by the calls on Super Bowl Sunday, I really didn't. - Rich McKay Quotes

The misses are hard to recover from. And the pressure on the player is tremendous. Typically, a player drafted No.1, 2 or 3 is on that team because they weren't very good. Now, everybody is labeling that player as the savior. He's just a rookie. That's not fair. - Rich McKay Quotes

I will say one thing: it probably took us more time to discuss it (at preliminary competition committee meetings) and all the different aspects of it this year than any year I can remember in the past. But it is one that has drawn a lot of media attention, and I think the league and the teams have talked a lot about it. We certainly talked a lot about it, and then when we get to Orlando, we'll obviously tell you what our position was. But for now, I'll just say that it is one that's definitely sparked interest. - Rich McKay Quotes

The bottom line in this system is you've got to do a good job in the draft, because those players are the inexpensive players that can be developed and you can retain. I think it's an oversimplification to say that the salary cap is the reason for all the change that has happened in the league. - Rich McKay Quotes
