I was just trying to see if you think Paul has made mistakes with lobbying for these guys, and if you think our coaches should have maybe a little less influence on who we take. Right now it seems certain coaches (particularly the more tenured ones) have a lot of pull in the draft room. Pull they probably shouldn't have.
Now that's not me saying that coaches shouldn't have any say, that's just me saying that Paul A shouldn't be able to say "I want this guy" and we take that guy simply because Paul liked how his butt looked.
I think we are on the same page. I just think his issues as coach stem from the problems with talent evaluation.
You just can't make a bad football player good. But coaches have egos that need fueled...
