[QUOTE="HatestheEagles084, post: 138508, member: 180"] [b]Re: GM THOMPSON REVIEW/FAN FEEDBACK[/b] I see you're new to the board so I'll respond...polls like this go on here all the time...on the whole I'd say two thirds to one third, fans generally approve what Ted Thompson has done... Of course this is known to fluctuate every time a big free agent signs a ridiculous contract that we'd be foolish to pay After 2006 when we were 4-12, of course not a lot of people were thrilled, but from the beginning I liked what he did with the draft, seeming to get value from every pick, bringing in some skilled guys and hiring a strong, intuitive coaching staff to get these guys into skilled nfl'ers...His first draft in 2005, he got Nick Collins, Terrence Murphy (would've been a good player, shame), Brady Poppinga from what was a really weak draft if you dig up who was drafted He completely re-vamped our o-line, everyone *****ed when Wahle and Rivera were let go, IF they were kept, we'd have a lot less cap space for possibly acquiring Randy Moss, and the issue of Marco Rivera retiring or not (has he announced?)...Spitz and Colledge fit in nicely at the guard positions and our o-line really came together, I knew then that eventualy letting the two guards go would help us, and I stand by it Ted managed to get rid of everything that I hated about this organization, how can I not support him...he started at the top...Mike Sherman was a terrible coach whose teams always underachieved and Mike McCarthy was hired to take this team in a new direction...Darren Sharper and Javon Walker didnt get the money they wanted, they're gone--I wish we would've kept Walker (the player) but the negative headlines he brought to the team just weren't worth it...Ahmad Carroll and Cleditus Hunt never lived up to their potential and they're gone... Yet, the vital parts were brought back...we've held on to Clifton, Tauscher...Kampman was given the money he deserved last season; Cullen Jenkins this season...Al Harris isn't going anywhere, considering where we were when Ted took over and where we are now, I'm very happy with what Ted's done, and I hope we are in fact involved in the McGahee Sweepstakes because that could take our team to the next step EDIT: after voting and viewing the results there is NO WAY IN HELL that 70% of people on here have been in support of Ted the whole way...just figure I'd add that incase you're conducting major research here tophat...
