I hear ya, but the TEXANS were bad for a lot longer than need be because of their worthless GM and HC.
The draft will be our "Super Bowl" for the next few years. Wonder if they'll be any good commercials?

Interesting perspective.
I definitely agree that we have a better starting point than an expansion team with our roster. With 13 picks (7 of the 13 in the top 101 picks) we have an amazing opportunity to build this team.

Too bad we have a GM that sucks ass. Peterson is our version of Casserly-both are pretty inept. I guess we'll have to wait to get a real GM before we even consider snifffing the playoffs-how are those Texans doing? Exactly.

I like the idea of starting virtually from scratch. I don't like the idea of doing it with Carl at the helm. But given the realities of the situation -- we stink and Carl isn't going anywhere (thanks, Clark!) -- this is probably the best solution: Stockpile picks and hope they draft the right guys.
I just hope they don't look at all those picks and figure it gives them room to be cute and draft the next Kris Wilson or Junior Siavii. No projects, no reaches on the first day, please. |

I don't know why so many people think this has to be a several year rebuilding effort. Sure there are a lot of holes, but we are essentially getting the equivalent of 2 drafts this year. IMO, if we aren't competing for a playoff spot or better by next season, we're underperforming.

I feel the same way.
This is a huge opportunity for this team and I feel good about Herm drafting these guys, I just hope Carl is busy putting more fake tan on his face. Actually there is a good chance that CP will be stuck doing media all day. Herm needs to not do any till after our 2nd round pick in Rd 2. |
