This may spark an old debate, but did Carl really "whiff" on SlyMo? Dude got hurt after one season, is Carl to be held accountable for that? It's not like Trezelle, whose talent (?) Carl and Co. vastly overrated. Now THAT'S a whiff. SlyMo was a pick who didn't pan out because of fate. Trezelle was a pick who didn't pan out because he stunk on ice.

When you don't draft well to begin with, and then you overestimate your talent on hand - you have issues. :shake:

It has be about as easy as it's ever been to be a sports journalist/radio host. These guys have access to dozens of good stories or thoughts just by reading these boards. We've been talking about poor drafting here for a couple of years.

Yep, poor drafting has been around for years, But the failure to reach the Super Bowl has been prmarily blamed on....

Marty being out of touch with todays players

Gun not able to cut it as a head coach

GR's defensive scheme and coaching.

The constant for these 16 years has been King Carl and his poor draft picks.
