We got about 3 solid starters out of Pioli...

Pioli's problem in the draft is he always wanted to pick these ****ing guys out of the air in hopes that the legacy of his genius would grow. The only one that was a lock was Berry and we got lucky on Poe.

My point is that Pioli ruined us with his drafting (except for J. Houston), not with the cap space. |

Yes no question this is the bottom line. I do think you can spin this positively. We had a great season. Were it not for very untimely injuries I believe they made a great effort and we were serious contenders. I have thought about the FA losses and frankly Dexter was the only one that bothered me. This team needs field position difference makers. You don't go out and get a SP coach like we did and not give him somebody to work with. Perhaps Thomas will deliver but I think Dexter would have been better. We shall see.

Albert should have had a contract before Dorsey got here.

I don't know how many times I've seen teams with multiple, sexy picks and think wow they're gonna be tough. Following year and the team is still mediocre. All those high picks detroit invested in their D line should have made the line a wall but Suh is all you hear.

Heh, I should dig up some of the overreactions, knee jerks and oversights from our past drafts around here. You can see how accurate the resident geniuses around here have been.

Eh, it's the same every year. Some love the draft, some hate it, some want to wait and see...everybody argues.

When we think it's a horrible draft everyone talks about how you can't judge a draft for years...
