Huh, what?

The best players on this team are all still from the Carl Peterson era.

ALL OF THEM. Dorsey, Charles, DJ, Flowers, Carr, Albert, etc. Barry Richardson is outclassing Pioli's golden boy right tackle, O'Failaghan. Even Carl's shitty leftovers, like Ron Edwards, are better than anything Pioli has signed at nose tackle. Wallace Gilberry? CARL. Andy Studebaker? CARL. Dustin Colquitt? CARL. DeMorrio Williams? CARL.

The only guy Pioli has produced that looks really good is Berry, and that was a no brainer. So was signing Chris Chambers.

Oh, he gets credit for Succop.

Pioli hasn't "hit" on any other draft picks so far. Arenas and McCluster didn't do anything to inspire confidence that they were the right picks in preseason. Maybe if they were 4th rounders...but not as 2nd rounders.
