Snead gets a pass

September 06, 2016 02:56PM
Because he simply does what Fisher tells him to do. He can't be held accountable for Fisher's decisions. Nobody can really say whether he'd be a good GM or not.

Fisher doesn't get a pass because he runs the show and as anybody who's watched even somewhat critically the last four years knows, it's been a s___show. You have as many picks, especially high picks, as they have and you're going to hit on a couple by default. But it's also about more than just draftees selected. I saw a post that appeared to argue that the last draft was a raving success because every drafted player made the team. The problem is, when all your later round picks are still making your roster 5 years in, it's actually a sign you've done a poor job stocking the roster with talent in previous years.

  Same issue with Mcleod - we develop and can't keep.

  You're totally missing the point

RamUK460September 06, 2016 12:28PM

  no i don't think i am

TonyHunter87371September 06, 2016 12:51PM

  you are conflating the issues

PHDram661September 06, 2016 01:48PM

  The question was is he a good GM - that includes keeping talent

promomasterj479September 06, 2016 02:24PM

  That's not a reasonable expectation

PHDram370September 06, 2016 02:47PM

  So a GM is just like a scout - he just finds players?

promomasterj393September 06, 2016 03:42PM

  Well we're not talking about Elway

  'A lenghty list of talented players' - I would say that's up for debate

TonyHunter87575September 06, 2016 02:37PM

  Lots of hoping for the best on that list

promomasterj367September 06, 2016 12:30PM

  3 years or less

  I seriously doubt that

PHDram348September 06, 2016 04:06PM

  well history says 50% on 1st round picks

LMU93439September 07, 2016 03:30AM

  how many "good" draft picks do you think he should have?

PHDram504September 06, 2016 09:32AM

  How do we feel about how he handled Foles - from last year to this year?

promomasterj593September 06, 2016 12:37PM
