Do you agree or disagree with Petro's assertion that Pioli is following a Carl-like path?
The approach may be the same, but the execution is different.

I remember calculating that Carl's success rate was something like 10-15% of players were in the league 5-10 years after they were drafted. IN THE LEAGUE. Not even serving as a backup.

Carl's approach would have been fine if he was average at drafting. Hell, even below average drafting would have passed. Instead, he was absolutely terrible. So yeah, the comparisons is completely apples to oranges, and a terrible one. And no, Carl Peterson does NOT deserve credit for the 2008 draft.
