The Giants weren't going to give up Collins, period. Clinton-Dix is a rental for Washington. Jenkins might have been too expensive ($14.75M for each of the next 2 years). We don't need any more cap problems. I'll give you Apple.
I'm not saying Veatch shouldn't have been more aggressive, but I believe there were circumstances (Berry's return) that might have played a part in negotiations with other teams. We're going to have PMII for at least 3 more years, so I just don't see any reason to call for Veatch's head ---- yet. Now Sutton's head is a different story. |

We should try again if Veach ****s up this next draft

At what point do you say he screwed up? Did that occur because he didn't draft the guy you wanted? Is it because the guy he did draft isn't a rookie all-pro? I'm not going to say he didn't, but the jury is still out on Watts, DOD, Nnadi, and Speaks. Given the right defense (and DC), I think a couple of these guys might be real finds.

I think it's too early to say Veach sucks and should be removed. But I don't think it's too early to have some real reservations.
I think after next season we'll have a much better sample size upon which to grade him. |

Interesting. Riddick was the biggest Mahomes fanboy before the season even started.

I did enjoy all the mid-season “Veach is the reason we got Mahomes” stories — if you believe them I guess he gets some credit there but they always seemed like they were heaping credit on Veach for a pick that Dorsey actually made. |

Our scheme really sucks and the execution of that bad scheme is even worse. I gotta think with this offense we could attract a lot of real talent to the DC position. |

I truly believe that if Dorsey was still the GM we would be fielding a much better defense

Debatable. Who drafted turds like Russell, Eric Murray and Kpass? Dorsey.

He was always a top GM IMO. I am not sure Veach is any worse but we have yet to see it. |

Dee Ford and Chris Jones were the only good players he drafted on defense aside from the raging lunatic known as Peters. He failed over and over and over at ILB and the entire secondary for 5 years. He was very similar to Pioli in terms of drafting.

We drafted a shitload of people on defense during Dorsey’s time. Watching veterans play like dunces makes me believe both veach and Dorsey are limited by shopping for groceries for a head chef who has no idea what the **** to cook. I still think several of our players would play better with a better dc.
