Now, there were some great players there (CD, Spikes, Simmons, Smith, the Oline), but there were a ton of scrubs on the 2-14 team he acquired as well.
But Marvin's first offseason saw a number of great acquisitions via trade, FA, and the draft to set things up for his tenure to succeed.
I agree with your overall point that Marvin didn't have a very good roster. I just want to point out that Spikes left for Buffalo the same off-season that Marvin was named coach. And he had Dillon for a few games before he got hurt, and left in the very next off-season.
