[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1066387, member: 17953"] We need to constantly focus on the consistency in building a 53-man roster, not concentrate on the upper one or two players taken in drafts and calling the picks a failure because someone doesn't pan out. Granted, it can change like it did with Ted Thompson. He started out where he was an amazing judge of talent then as his health slipped, that slowly disintegrated. That wasn't his fault because most people never spotted what was happening to him, and as all of us would be, we don't want to admit we're losing our cognitive skills. When The 3-headed-monster of coach, GM, and VP Ball weren't aligned in the pecking order, and all 3 answered directly to the President, I thought it was a recipe for disaster. It has actually worked out quite well because all 3 seem to be seamlessly working together to create more balanced decision making. I felt Gutekunst was not the right man for the GM job as well. I will readily admit I was dead wrong. He was definitely the right man for the job at the time it was given to him and still is. The last 7-years have been impressive, just like the last 30. I'd take our GMs over that period of time and our drafting over anyone else in the league. It's been consistent through changes in leadership, where you can see that the only team ahead of them, the Patriots, have gone down the tubes without Bill Belichick. He was the glue that held that franchise together. [/QUOTE]
