Still dont get the Hurney firing..

[Awesomeness!!]

Other than Newson in Baltimore, Hurney was the best drafter in recent history. Luke and Norman are stubs. Cam, Hardy, Lafell all stubs. His only hick up was Armanti, and Rivera.

stubs.

[WilmyWood]

Total stubs.

[sharkman]

dyslexic much :-)

I joke...don't get offended huddle masses...

[rayzor]

clausen?

everette brown?

jake delhomme extension?

most expensive backfield in the league?

cap mess?

[Awesomeness!!]

Clausen fell to us..

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

everette brown trade was terrible. huge bust and we traded a first rounder for him in 2009. that move, by the way, was a double down by hurney as he had traded a first the previous year for otah, another pick that finally and ultimately proved to be a bust this offseason.

only citing armanti and rivera is actually letting the guy off quite easy. to his credit, i don't fault him for the peppers thing either as that was a shitstorm largely induced by julius and his agent. i also don't hold the delhomme extension against him necessarily as that was a salary cap move.

Many failed draft day trades, which kept us in the hole for several drafts...

[rayzor]

Clausen fell to us..

we didn't have to be the team dumb enough to catch him.

anyway...we know that hurney tried trading up to draft him but couldn't find any takers.

at first I was like:

Then I was like:

[Darth Biscuit]

I've never thought of Armanti as a hick.

[Growl]

Yeah guys he really nailed all those RB's and LB's.

[Gucci Mane]

We've won twice as many games without him. Coaching changes coming in the offseason are the only thing we are waiting on now.

What about all this money tied up in under utilized talent? Don't forget the huge Delhomme extension after a sub- par year. Yes we were 12-4,but we won those 12 despite Delhomme in most cases. This isn't even mentioning the playoff debacle that preceded teh signing either. I loved Delhomme but he was far from great in 2008 and we could have signed/ extended him for far less than what we did. We never REALLY established a #2 receiver outside of Muhammed.

Also I like Lafell he has shown flashed but he is not STUD status yet. He completely disappears in some games but recently he's looked much better and I hope he is the #2 we've been looking for. I've will not complain about his drafting, but some of his investments haven't turned out so well
