[QUOTE="Thirteen Below, post: 1034184, member: 18006"] It feels like the GM, scouts, and coaches are all on the same page, and that it's the right page. And that they're all coordinating and communicating, working together as a team to make sensible decisions as part of a master plan that they all understand. Everything they do just seems to fit together with everything else thay do. We need time to gather more information over the summer and fall, but at this point, it at the very least seems to have been a very well-planned, organized, and managed draft. I think we can safely say that much. It's too soon to accurately evaluate the talent, but objectively I think it's fair to say that at #25, we drafted a highly rated offensive lineman who probably would have been gone 10 picks earlier many years. One of our two most critical needs was linebacker, and in Round 2, I'd say we drafted the best linebacker of the year - and the rest of the league seems to agree, because every other team had at least one shot at him, and the next LB didn't go until almost a full round later. The other of our two most urgent needs was safety, and later in the 2nd Round, we drafted one of the Top Two safeties - again, the league seems to agree he was at least Top Two because only one other was drafted higher. And in fact, many people feel Bullard [I]was [/I]the better of the two. We got players at every single position of immediate need, multiple players in most cases, and almost all of them are regarded as high-value picks at their slot. The early consensus among most draft watchers is that this may be the third consecutive excellent draft by Gutekunst. I'm happy. [/QUOTE]
