Compared to the guys that had that job, I am impressed. Sticking to a gameplan and building up a good Dline. Not over spending when possible and mostly 3-4 year contracts. We will see what he does in the draft.  Good job so far

We have no idea what these guys will do if anything.  But agree they do have a plan which is nice.  Wharton was a big overspend IMO.  

If you look at their previous performances, they will make a notable difference.

Spending money in FA is not the hard part of the job.  Managing the cap and more importantly the draft is where he should be judged and based off one year its pretty fuging ugly

I still think our entire scouting department is one of our bigger issues. Until we consistently nail a couple of drafts, the GM is getting bad advice from somewhere. Whether it's Hurney, Gettleman, Fitterer, or Morgan...I'm tired of hoping to come out of drafts with 2 guys. 

At this point I would be happy with 2 guys

Still, I like Morgan so far. No marquee players (this year), but solid guys looking to play a larger role. And building from the trenches out!!!

Well based on last year the FA period made a lot of sense and it paid off in a big way. The draft had a lot of legitimate concerns that were brought to light as the season went along and ended up being pretty freaking bad actually. 

So thinking he at least hits on a few of these FA guys again and with the defense being so bad they will help by default, it will still really come down to drafting impact guys. This draft has a good chance to define the team going forward and saving him his job or else we'll be stuck in the mediocre tier.

Most teams fail at the draft, it’s largely a crapshoot. For every team that drafts as well as the Rams last year, there are 29 others struggling to find even one rosterable players. A successful draft rate over five years is around 30%, meaning that hitting on just two out of seven picks would make you one of the most best GMs in the league. 

I think fans set their expectations too high for results that are pretty unlikely.

The league average is 2.5 starters per draft that start for at least 3 years.

We’ve been at maybe 1-1.5 the past 7 years.

      FIRE ROD OR TULSKY

      By organicrusty1201 · Posted

      When you analyze what Tulsky has done the only positive was getting Ehlers, he blew the Gentzel signing, whiffed on Rantanan, signed Miller who is a terrible fit, never addressed the goalie problem, signing a declining Freddie instead, and wasted a ton of cap space this year with inaction. My verdict is he might be great at analytics but sucks as a general manager.

      We might have replacement refs again…

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      If you think the refs we have are bad, you probably don't remember just how bad it got the last time they used replacement refs... including an incident of a Packers fan ref massively influencing a game. The NFL, when you consider all the other things tied to it like TV rights, betting, stadiums (construction, ticket prices, heck even parking and concessions), plus merchandizing, is probably a trillion dollar industry. Give the refs what they want, pay them and let's get back to having games.

      Probably.  You never know.  It always amazes me to think how many times they miss on first rounders (about 50%) and the number of misses increases every round.  Then there are UDFAs that make the team every year.  I guess we are always looking for the next gem--but most never make it.  Funny, I was at dinner last night and there was this big guy with a WCU shirt on.  I recognized him--that OT from Western that we gave a tryout last year or the year before--Smith.  He explained his experience--just wanted to see how he could hold up against the big boys.  He played a preseason game and was terrible, fwiw.
