The reasoning is that TEAMS win championships and you cannot build a Championship roster of players via the draft. It’s just not going to happen because you have guys developing and peaking at different times. As we’ve seen now we lose guys once they’ve peaked and have to go right back to developing new guys. We went through two cycles with Palmer and now we are on our second cycle with Dalton. Only the downward cycle at o-line destroyed Palmers elbow.
Marvin’s drafted real well as one could expect but they are still filling in holes with what are most likely rotational to mediocre guys from other teams late in free agency and expecting too much out of some of our later draft picks.
So until Brown changes his philosophy on free agency and stops promoting rejects within the organization to Coordinator positions / position coaches, it doesn’t matter who the head coach is.
On a side note...I don’t know who wields the power to bench underperforming players but I’d like to see some accountability and less job security for repeat underperforming offenders going forward. /rant
You finally figured this out??
