Post Mortem on Little

eh. I still see picks like Devin and Ealy (though that might be because I had higher expectations for both) as worse picks. It was nice at the time to draft a T who at least one time was held in high regard and wasn't from some Div.II college. 

 

Sucks but I've been mad about worse picks in the 2nd.

I think Dave was just Hurney with a worse personality. Look at how horrible the Giants are. Ironically Brandon Beane was the best GM in our organization but JR was so horrible he overlooked him for years. Oh well its history now.

losing beane was really, really bad

What makes it even worse is if we had just stayed put we could have snagged McCoy right before NO. 

Kept our 1st 3rd for Winovich and used our 2nd on CGJ (we needed a safety). 

And the worst part is everyone here knew Little was a bad pick except for Hurney. It's mind numbing how bad his 2nd and 3rd round picks were with a couple of exceptions.

Little, Armanti Edwards, Dwayne Jarrett, Gaulden, Silatolu, Clausen, Fua, Everette Brown, and even Colbert...  all 2nd and 3rd rounders.

Yeesh.

I always credited Hurney for his hit rates on first rounders, but all his blunders elsewhere made him absolutely atrocious.  I always said, our 2nd and 3rd round picks under him quite possibly had to be the worst in the league during his tenure.

    • While I have a chance to be overly excited I'll take that opportunity. The team will determine what happens with that. It's been a while since we've had much to be excited about, I'd say let's just embrace it and see how it unfolds.
    • Knowns: top 10 o line 2 proven, quality RBs 2 proven, WRs who get open and catch everything. 2 others who show a lot of ‘potential’ A QB who improved greatly in the last few games of the season, topped off by putting up a 40 burger win in OT in this franchise’s kryptonite house. What will transpire this season is yet to be seen.  defense has far less proven. 2  very good CBs, a stud DT (coming off a major injury) and the rest is, again, ‘potential.’ A DC that is essentially starting the season on the hot seat.  This is not 2003, but it could be good. 2003 was the most stacked roster from top to bottom that this team has ever had. This squad finished on a big upswing, yes, but we’ll see.  I think it all comes down to how spiked your hopium is. The running game is where it is for the team. This is not a defense that will win 3 points games. Just not. To win, this team will have to dominate TOP and come up with 2+ more 3rd down stops each game. Again, do-able and should be good for at least a 7 point differential in our favor, ‘hopefully.’  I will say that it is nice seeing talent that actually belongs in the NFL on our roster. 
    • Say what you want, but last year Bryce gave Carolina the best QB-play we've seen a very long time. A very long time. Often with rookies at WR and TE, and a RB not known for his receiving abilities. There is much reason for optimism with added weapons, and consistency/ chemistry on the offensive line and coaching staff. Now if the defense can get to average instead of a heaping lump of dog doo, this team should win a lot more games. This season is a turn the corner season. Next season is the year to press the accelerator to the floor.
