At "this point" after that trade, Drew Brees was average about 4 years per attempt and looked like garbage... |

So, 55-45 losses instead of 55-38 losses, or something?

There's also the fact that Drew Brees won a Super Bowl with a defense that was very similar to those defenses under DV...

I am sorry but two seconds is something that shouldn't be insurmountable to overcome. The level of play last year exceeded that value.

It's also not insignificant, especially to a team that professes to be building almost solely through the draft. |

It's funny. When Carl sat on his hands during the early part of free agency, there was hand-wringing and bitching and people joking about vacations in Jamaica.
When Dorsey does it, he "knows what he's doing". |

Committing to hitting on picks is more important than stockpiling and hoping hit, and certainly more than presenting a more coherent philosophy to the media.

By that logic we could have drafted any number of non-first round qb successes. Why didn't we draft Tom Brady in 2000! We suck! Also, you continue to talk about draft history. No such thing. Different people running the drafts. It's not cause and effect -- because we drafted Paul Palmer and it didn't work out does not mean we will be gun shy when it comes time to draft a WR this year. |

To a large extent the draft is ALL ABOUT stockpiling and hoping to hit on a few players. |

I think it is as reasonable to be optimistic about Dorsey, rather than pessimistic. |

Ugh. I'm not sure how else to explain it. History exists -- but the only history that matters for this draft is the Dorsey/Reid history. One season.
You cannot judge or guess what they will do based on SOMEONE ELSE's ACTIONS. Dorsey and Reid were not here to pick up Cassel. THAT WASN'T THEM. THEY DID NOT DRAFT BLACKLEDGE. You are not justifiably pessimistic. You are just pessimistic. |

I'm merely saying that I don't have any hope in what they're doing. It's called human nature. History justifies my opinion. You can deny it all you want but you'd be wrong. |
