The front office can’t help that Eifert can’t stay on the field. They also haven’t been picking in the top 10 every year so it’s a little difficult to get the elite Wr when others are picking in front of us. The first time in Andy’s career we have a top 10 pick they select a guy who could one day be elite if he could stay healthy. Seriously you must be high or stupid to think that just because every skill position surrounding Andy isn’t a pro bowler that the organization hasn’t truly put forth an effort to surround Andy with talent. Truth is that all th guys we have had very successful college careers and Andy can’t read a defensive backfield to know who to throw to.
Your argument is that Andy hasn’t succeeded due to not having enough talent around him...I say our talented personnel have not succeeded due to not having a QB who can get them the opportunities to succeed. Plus 2014 called and they want your lame excuse for Andy back. Don’t you know now that Zampese is gone we can go back to blaming the o-line.
High draft picks doesn't mean that they're actually good. Why does almost every single receiver have their best year playing with Dalton? Jones, Sanu, Hawkins, Gresham, and Simpson all have had their best years with Dalton and not another QB. Hell, LaFell had his 2nd best year with Dalton and the other two QBs he's played with were Cam Newton and Tom Brady.
To say that high draft pick = talent is silly. Just look at our LT and RT right now. Both high draft picks, both horrible. Green has been Dalton's only big weapon, and since 2014 he's been getting hurt a decent amount. Eifert probably have had more games where he's injured than he's been healthy.
