[QUOTE="Arles, post: 147282, member: 786"] Because almost all the guys I mentioned were undrafted stopgaps. If you looks our depth chart going into next season you will see it littered with guys TT recently drafted (Spitz, Wells, Colledge, Moll, Barbre, Jennings, Clowney, Jones, B. Jackson, Wynn, Rodgers, Martin). And that's just the offense - the D is stocked full as well. We were a young 8-8 team last season that got better as the season went on and we had only 3 vet FAs that were main contributors (Woodson, Pickett, Manuel). I'd say that says a lot about what TT can get in the draft, undrafted FA and trades. I think we should have a winning team this season - due in big part to TT's drafting. TT currently has 16 players on our current depth chart from the 05 and 06 drafts (6 starting). I'd put that record up against any GM in football. Now, he just added another 11 guys to improve even more. The guys he is replacing are mostly Sherman's or were undrafted injury stopgaps. I don't idolize him (Manuel was a poor signing), but I don't want to poop on his cereal like everyone else here does. He has done a very good job in the last two drafts despite enormous negativity after both. This season has been no different I think his recent track record (ave of 3 starters and 5 depth from each draft) deserves more. This team has gotten better since 2005 and the main reason is TT's drafting. I expect many said the same thing after last year's draft - which saw a 4 game increase in wins. Unless people see huge names and media love on every move, they don't think we are getting any better. That's just not the case. [/QUOTE]
