What is the justification of keeping Hurney? Otah, Brown, AE all picks we gave up picks for are now busts.

From the past 5 drafts (too early to tell for 2011):

Out of the 8 picks in 2006 only DWill and Anderson are here

Out of the 8 picks in 2007 only Beason, Kalil, and C.Johnson are here

2008 wasn't that spectacular. Otah is a bust. Barnidge and Bernadeau may not be here next season. Taylor is gone. Hayden is gone (thank God!).

Almost the entire 2009 draft is no longer on the team. Brown, Irvin, Fiametta, D.Robinson gone. Goodson may not be here next season. Maybe the samething for Martin next year.

The 2010 draft is heading that way too. Jimmy Clausen, a wasted pick. AE doesn't look like he'll be here next season. Pike is gone. McClain is gone. Stanford might not be here next season. Norwood may be out next season too.

Then you take into account the decision to give DWill a big contract when our new scheme doesn't rely on the RBs that much. Should've shopped him around. 4 mil a year to a weaker kicker as well? Ignoring the DT position after Ron Edwards went down. Not addressing a starting CB. That's just this season. Not to mention the Delhomme and Peppers f**k ups.

I just don't see the reason for keeping him around any longer.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
