Sure, ask hin aboot his 2 bright spots and not the spending spree he went on overpaying a 2-14 core with ridiculously large contracts

It's not like he was consistently drafting good players in the first round or anything.

Safe picks--unless you consider Jonathan Stewart, Jeff Otah, Everette Brown (traded a first rounder for him).

 

Where are the WRs he drafted?

Where are the defensive tackles?

How many elite CBs did he draft?

 

How do you think he did negotiating contracts?

How well did he do in free agency?

 

He gave away the 33rd pick in the draft for Armanti Edwards, a small school QB with NO WR EXPERIENCE (which is still the case).

He tried to ttrade up with the Rams to draft Jimmy Clausen--they did not accept his offer.

He drafted players with injury histories that shortenened or adversly impacted their careers.

No WRs or DTs but gamble was a good pick

Gamble was solid, but I don't think he ever made a pro bowl.  I think he cost us a fourth rounder to move up and grab.  If I am moving up in the first round to grab a DB, he better be special.

 

How many free agent WRs and draft picks did he bring in, only to bust here?  It would be impossible to miss that often.  I started counting one day and got up to about 14 from memory-

Trademark Hurney:

He kept Morgan and let Witherspoon walk.

He let Geoff Schwartz and Evan Mathis go (different years), but re-signed Garry Williams.

 

  Sure, he had a few nice picks, but you or I would have done as well.

He never did make a pro bowl but should have. Just thinking about what our defense could have done with a gamble in his prime is scary. But yeah hurney wasn't the greatest I was never arguing that lol.

    • Freeling is 💯  the future LT of the Panrhers.  He may even start this year.  While he didn't start all of his college career, we he did play, he performed.   He is an absolute stud. If he had more play time in college, he would have been the first tackle taken in the draft.  Icky is looked up to and has deep value within the team and locker room.  If he can get back healthy, he will continue to play for us.  Obviously at another position. RT, Guard.  I don't see him running to another team unless the Panthers cut ways with him. Which is possible, although no team will value him like our team does.       
    • Aho has to show up in game 2.
    • Yeah I'm in Ridgewood and there was just like 40 people outside of my pizza spot when I mad a run to the bodge lol. Usually just a few. They have beers and tv's but it's usually just casual with a few people paying attention
