I said coaching staff, but it wasn't just the coach.  The GM's (Hurney and DG) played a huge role in the lack of talent on offense.  Gettleman's obsession with size over actual talent hurt us on offense.   

Definitely so.  It may have been partially laziness, but how many years did we enter the draft with WR being on our major needs list?  Sometimes we swung and missed, sometimes we swung at a pitch in the dirt, and sometimes we took a check-swing.

Gettleman was obsessed with size and Rhule with speed.  Hurney's obsession was finding diamonds in the rough after the first round.  The underlying problem was they never wavered from those obsessions, despite all evidence that it was not working.

He's been awful, but its hard to call a 2024 6th and a 2025 7th a robbery.  The best thing we got out of trading him was getting him off the team.

Think of it this way...

If we had been the team that gave something up for him, what would we be saying?

    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
    • When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
