Based on Marvin’s track record as a defensive guru I thought he’d be cranking out pro bowlers and all pros yearly. Odell drinking himself out of football hurt. Missing on mid round picks hurt. Not investing higher picks in the position hurt.

It's easy to be a defensive guru when your GM drafts Boulware, McCalister, Ed Reed, Ray Lewis and signs guys like Siragus, Woodson, McCrary etc.
The real failure in my opinion was the front office drafting a bunch of duds. Hell, the only real LB that panned out was the one Lewis took a chance on as a UDFA in Burfict.
People probably wanted to draft another LB or 2, but we still have some young guys that have a little experience under their belt that should be better bets than a 5th-7th rounder this year.
