Absolutely. The NFL has proven that half or more of GMs and front offices are incapable of pivoting when circumstances change. Even a respected guy like Mickey Loomis was whining last year not about safety but about the lack of in-person visits for free agency and how the NFL should delay the opening.
This year with no combine, few in person visits, and shortened or nonexistent game tape from the past season, the draft was held anyway and a bunch of these guys were probably like, “derp not enough scouting!”
Veach has proven to be forward thinking in his short time as an NFL GM. He largely outsmarted a bunch of teams last year, and on paper he probably did the same thing this year.
