Part of this reaction is because the expectations were probably unrealistically high for what this guy would bring to the table.
Fact is, some of the NE drafts were absolutely ****ing terrible. Terrible. Look at the Tom Brady year, for example. They struck an unbelievable amount of gold in round 6, or otherwise that entire thing is Carl-worthy.
Clark is off the hook for now, as far as I'm concerned, because he went out and tried to get the best person. Great, and I'm eager to see the product that gets put on the field.
But I'm not going to be a blind follower when decisions are being made right now that are going to shape the face of this franchise for years to come. The Cassel-Sanchez decision is so big, for example, that it's obviously going to be polarizing.
