The Baldwin/Houston deal, Cleveland called and made an offer... their early 3rd for a trade back of a few spots in the late 1st...so he took it. Not a shrude move that any other GM couldn't have pulled off. And he got lucky that Houston fell due to issues.

Well, you have to look at what he was given. This team had zero bench depth and over half of our starters aren't even in the league anymore. They were that bad. He took over that roster and actually rounded it out quite nicely, and he did it without spending very much money. You don't have to bring in a ton of superstars to build a good roster.
Again, he has built a mostly good team and sabotaged it with unbelievably arrogant decisions around the coaching and the quarterback. Behind a good coach and a good QB, this team is very good. Which is a lot more than you can say for the team we had in 2009.
