We really offered Ryan Mayes and not Q Wilson.
I will always be amazed by that lol.
The previous staff didn't offer because he was not viewed as a coal shoveler and seen as too much of a "me guy".
Translation- The previous staff knew Quincy could play and that he was confident in his ability. Because of this Gluten and Dorito knew they couldn't break him and cleanse him of his aggressive play making mentality. Gluten and Co decided that Quincy could not be brainwashed into becoming a mindless, neutered automaton and therefore was a bad fit for their passive prevent defense and the flaccid beta culture they were attempting to create. Quincy was much too alpha just like his father and would be too much trouble.
So Gluten and Co turned their sights to a marginal talent known for lacking aggression in Ryan Mayes. Mayes no doubt would be ecstatic just to be offered and since he had little innate talent they knew they could mold, control and manipulate him in any way they saw fit. They had the perfect coal shoveler for their precious bend over, spread your cheeks and break defense. Ryan Mayes the quintessential cheeseburger.
