Re: Sometimes Its Who You Keep Not Who You Sign
I think the one point that can't be desputed is the fact that while our defense didn't fall apart, it didn't become dominate either. We have had to double or in some cases triple our efforts to fill holes we had already plugged solidly.
The FO was in such a hurry to win now that it influenced terrible draft and trade stratedgies. And now the mistake(s) have finally been realized. So what will FO do now? Well basically the same mistakes but not for the sake of the instant win, but for trying to play mistake catch up.
Because desicions on JT and others have cost us to give up draft pics, VC will now try to compensate by trading down. Again not being in position to comfortably pick from our current slots. Probably signing guys we would have normally pass on if we still had the resorces too.
So yeah Clark leaving didn't kill our D. But just imagine how much better we would be with him. Not to mention the domino effect choices like this cause.
Vinny still has some fall out to deal with
The FO needs to develop patience and forsight
