That's just dumb. If you can't see that DG has an eye for talent in later rounds that Hurney never had you are either not paying attention or are just retarded.

If you knew how to read you'd see I was responding to topdawg talking about finding 1st round gems NOTHING ELSE, would you not agree Marty was good at that as well?

But since you want to bring up DG's "eye for talent" in the later rounds ill play...

2013

4- Kugz (garbage)

5- Klein (serviceable, however Glanton did a better job once he came in due to AJ's injury)

6- Barner (garbage)

2014

4- Boston (going to tred lightly here since he's from UNC but I thought DG reached, Boston played well before getting abused in Seattle. Way too early to judge this pick though)

5- Bene (very solid)

6- Gaffney (injured, waived, lost)

So leaving Boston out of this, he's gone 1/5 - 1.5/5 with Klein being serviceable.

You would've been better off saying Gettleman has done a better job finding UDFA's or players off the streets/waivers. (Brown, Norwell, Glanton, Remmers, Fozzy) I know I'm missing a few others too

Bringing in solid UDFAs = having an "eye for talent"

Duh.

He said later rounds, because he thought I compared Marty's drafting ability to DG's when I was really only talking about the 1st round

any RB taken high in the draft has to be durable. there are definitely durability issues but before he got hurt, there was talk of him going #1 overall.

he's big and physical but so are DLs and LBs. Marshawn Lynch is one of the few rbs in the past 10 years that has made it mostly unscathed...it's just a question of how much stock you feel like investing...I want my 1st rounders to be core players that stick as sure-fire starters without durability questions.

So you aren't counting Boston for whatever reason, and serviceable doesn't count on late round picks but injuries DO count against Gettleman. Mmmkay. Got it.

But yeah, I agree with your sentiment about Hurney, he could hit those first round slow pitches out of the park.

      I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50.

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
