[QUOTE="Bobby Roberts, post: 94374, member: 260"] [b]Re: Florio: Sherman only?[/b] The biggest problem with Sherman's drafts wasn't the supporting staff but the philosophy. A GM wants to get young players who will develop into good starters over time. A coach wants to get players who can help the team win now, basically filling holes for the upcoming season. Sherman focused on the holes and used FA and the draft to fill those holes. This lead to him focusing on certain players and trading draft picks to get those who they determined are the best to fill a particular hole. TT is focusing on talented prospects who are likely to develop into good starters. With that in mind, it's better to use the shotgun approach of getting as many talented young guys as possible onto the roster and see how they develop. Therefore TT trades down for more picks. Sherman's philosophy led to competitive teams each season, while TT's philospohy has led to us having to be patient waiting for this team to develop. Now that I think about it, that may have been what led to the break between Sherman and TT. TT decreased the experience on the team in thoughts of upgrading over time, while Sherman needed more experience to win now. Either way, our only choice right now is to sit back and be patient. Hopefully TT's approach will pay off, but only time will tell. [/QUOTE]
