I can't think of a singe thing about him that says he would have any inclination toward being good at player/personnel management. Some of these ideas coming out on here lately, are really looking like feeble attempts at drawing straws.

People love to complain about our coaches having to double as scouts so I think looking at the offensive players we drafted while he was here would give us an indication.

He was here from 2011-13 and we grabbed:
AJ, Andy and Boling in 2011
Zeitler, Sanu and Marvin Jones in 12
And Eifert, Gio and Rex in 13.

We made the playoffs each year and the following 2 years with few misses on the offensive picks. Feels like we’ve missed a bunch since he left.

I’d say that’s at least a solid argument that he can evaluate talent
