Tom Brady is a four year starter.

So is Andy Dalton.

Judging draft quality by something like that is pretty much useless.

You’d have to think the turnover margin at the QB position is much less frequent across the board though.

There is no such thing as a good drafting team in the NFL

Buccaneers 27 124 21.77
Redskins 25 115 21.74
Browns 24 130 18.46

This says nothing about the quality of the starter, length of career, overall construction of roster etc.   This in no way proves Hurney is good at his job

Which is why you judge by winning.

Yea, but a GM goes in the direction that the head coach wants to go, not the other way around.  I feel more is to blame on a coach than GM for that reason.

exactly, just because he is a 4 year starter doesnt mean he is good.  Just shows you Hurney or whoever never tried to upgrade, just said "eh, he is good enough"

And what is it saying about other GMs that cant find quality players in the draft?

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
