How much trust do you have in Gettleman/Rivera in Offensive Tackle evaluation?

[imminent rogaine]

Rivera: 0

Gettleman: All of it.

 

Happy with who has been brought in given the constraints that we had. He has rocked the draft and UDFA market.  Rivera dont know poo.

[CRA]

Little. Even being cap strapped....having Bell and Chandler competing to win the job to protect Cam is a pretty quesrionable move.

[countryboi]

I trust the scouting dept to find talent I just don't trust Rivera to use them.

[pepaw]

I do not trust Ron to evaluate players, especially ones that are already on the team.  I think Gettleman will do a good job though.

You simply can't go this long with UNDRAFTED free agents playing tackle. You have to pull the trigger and draft someone for god's sake. Who does that? Undrafted LT/RT and their back ups? Failing grade so far, D- at best. I would love for Gettleman to double dip at OL this year and cut these undrafted free agent types. 

[Anybodyhome]

What have either of them done to earn fans' trust to this point? Nothing.

 

Therefore, my answer can only be, "No," until they earn that trust.... and I'm not confident that will happen either.

Hes no hurney. Hurney found Cam, Luke, Gerg Hray, Sione, Fua, Fua, Mclain.

If the Dolphins hadn't taken James (who very few had projected that high) we would have our LT because Gman has already commented on how highly they rated him. Which begs another question, JJ or KB.

 

James looks like he's going to be a very good OT. Can't complain too much since we did end up with Benjamin.

[TheNewStandard]

Matsko can't be left out of this discussion. with the junk he's had to work with, I'd say he can put together a solid unit. maybe his input should be considered more heavily

[rayzor]

Rivera? Zero.

 

Gettleman? Remains to be seen.

 

pretty much where i am.

 

i have no faith in rivera's ability to see talent. i think he puts more stock into "he's trying really hard" than an actual ability to perform at a high level.

 

i trust gettleman in pretty much all facets except the OL. maybe he does know what he's doing and did a good job of spotting the talent he brought in last year, but he also brought in some real duds and he had much more faith in bell and chandler than was warranted. remmers  might be an indicator of what he can do, but he could just as much be either a happy accident we stumbled on or a flash in the pan. the jury is still bery much out on both remmers and gettleman re: OT.

 

i think gettleman's achilles heel will always be the DL. he's obsessed with it and it will be something that continues to come back and bite us in the ass because if he sees two people of equal talent, regardless of position and one of them is a DL guy, he's always going to go with the DL. it doesn't matter how stacked we are on the DL or how deficient the other position(s) are....the DL is always going to carry more weight in his decision.

[Mr. Scot]

Rivera? Zero.

Gettleman? Remains to be seen.

I suspect this will be a very popular answer.

Thinking about last year's team without KB is downright scary.

[The Huddler]

People dont realize how difficult Gettleman has had it.

Its like he had to get FA with food stamps

[The Huddler]

He will put together a complete and beast team.
