Then we get that Jets WR who ended up being terrible for us.

He wasn't cut out to be a number 1 WR, especially at age 32, but I do wish we would've kept him.
It would've saved a lot of headaches with Coles and Bryant. Then we rented TO for a year and wasted picks on guys like Simpson and Caldwell.
Completely agree.

EDIT: Looks like Housh wasn't a total wash in Seattle. I do recall him ending his career with Palmer in Oakland.
Why does that make us look worse? Other teams couldn't get the best out of players that were great for us?
I have always been a dude that doesn't like the FO and the coaches but this actually makes me think a little different.
MJ to add to that list even if he was injured.
Then there are guys like Takeo Spikes and Justin Smith that went elsewhere and were just as, if not more solid.
If we had more of those guys i would understand your point.
