who says we look bad publicly?? Other than a few folks here I havent seen anyone getting their panties in a wad over Josh Dobbs.
Dude was a cardinal...he played hard...he got traded...good luck Josh Dobbs.

Just the first page headlines of a google search. Headlines themselves set the narrative. Most of them aren't just saying it's a trade (a couple are), most have innuendo baked right into it feeding into negative public perception.
Reading through these what you have is the typical narrative setting that questions how we approached what we did. The 100% controllable and avoidable part. Yet this forms the basis of much of these articles.
Dobbs is quoted in just about every article as well and these quotes tend to paint him in a sympathetic light, and by that virtue us as unsympatetic.

Now no one is saying this is some HUGE thing. What I am saying is that this is not what we need and does not help us rehabilitate our image, and gives our critics another chance to kick us while we're down, and we can't blame an old regime, it's our new one doing this, so it's notable.
Especially if the plan is to do either this offseason or next offseason to lure free agents. You don't want to start piling these up.
