The 'homerism' is back just like it was last year when everybody was on board with Bell & Chandler, including threads like these. Remmers wouldn't have been on the team nor seen the field unless it was for injuries.
Thus far, Gett has shown the ability to evaluate college talent and make decent draft picks. That's what he did for the Giants. He hasn't shown the ability to give his coach a competitive roster and adequately address weaknesses, while building through the draft. Yes, we were limited due to the cap situation and he has only been here a short time ... everybody knows that. However, Bell and Chandler .... really? I think he truly believed it and that would have been his answer, even if he had the money. He also passed on late round OTs that would have been upgrades to the current roster.
Truth is that there wasn't much available in free agency this year to upgrade our OT situation with capable starters ... much less studs. The best of the group stayed with their former teams, as expected. We dropped a guy at the bottom and picked up one close to the bottom, with a glimmer of hope that a previous relationship with our position coach will make him adequate again. For me ... the question is does Gett really believe that Oher IS the answer or is he creating competition. Also, nothing has been done yet to address our #2 or #3 CB (depending on where you slot Bene), WR or safety positions. However, it is still early.
Until we know how the rest unfolds ... he doesn't get the keys to the house. He has an obvious talent for assessing college talent but is he cerebral enough to be a good GM.?. Jury is still out.
