[QUOTE="FrankRizzo, post: 547497, member: 2232"] Some fans here are in such denial, so defensive. Think about this: Since the magical Super Bowl January run (beating Vick, Ryan, Cutler to make Super Bowl), we have not won a single playoff game. Yes we beat the Joe Webb Minnesota Vikings, who were a horrible team as we have seen before that fluke season and since that season. We went from that 2011 great first 3 months of record-nearing offense, with these weapons: Jermichael, Jones, Driver, Jordy, Cobb, Jennings, to now just two of these six guys. And the defense is worse now, and no holes have been filled in free agency with upgrades. You think just magic is going to make the defense better? Who are the safeties? Burnett is not very good, and he's our only one. The ILB's are subpar. How does TT draft those positions? Traded up for Terrell Manning 3 years ago. Drafted Jarron McMillian 3 years ago. Gave Capers MD Jennings and McMillian to work with. Capers best option at ILB was a 7th round OLB, Brad Jones. If you are really buying his 100% Draft & Develop theory, thinking it's okay to not add pieces like Charles Woodson, Ryan Pickett via free agency, yet you still expect this team to suddenly change it's course downwards, all by his drafting, you are sorely mistaken. His drafting is barely above-average. I'd grade his last 5 years of drafts as a flat 'B' grade. When you get an 'F' in free agency, you have to draft as an 'A'. There were a handful of safeties available in free agency who would have been A) affordable and B) instant UPGRADES over our current stable of safeties. He didn't do it, and I'd love to see Capers follow Kevin Greene's lead and walk away. You ask a chef to prepare a good meal but keep providing him generic crappy ingredients? Face it, our Super Bowl win was great, and enough joy to last a long time. And it's going to have to do that because until Thompson drafts much better, or fills a few holes with proven talent via free agency, there's no way in hell this team is going to improve enough to catch and pass the premiere teams.
