[QUOTE="Magooch, post: 1078944, member: 17987"] Gute's honestly a tough one for me to assess at times. I think that big picture, top to bottom he drafts really well...but at the same time think at times he gets a little too "cute" or "smartest guy in the room" with some of our early picks. But that's largely a preference thing. I will say in looking at this particular season, I think we have completely botched the CB room, and the OL is even worse. I said elsewhere I think he was already declining, but the Jenkins move is really weird. Rather than try and acquire a new C, we took a passable guard and converted him into a thoroughly mediocre center, then overpaid a mediocre guard to replace the spot that was opened up by sliding him over to C. And dating back even further, Myers over Humphrey was a VERY suspect pick in the first place (it's water under the bridge now I guess), mirrored a few years later as we could've also went with Barton over Morgan and IMO been in a better situation. AND it's not like there were no decent C's available this offseason (just look to the franchise a bit south of us...), so the whole thing has been really weird. A lot of current problems can be strangely pointed towards how we have repeatedly had a hard time at C. BUT on the other hand IMO he absolutely STOLE Micah Parsons from the Cowboys. So that is of course a big point in his favor. But, with that being said, I also have to think right now...if not for making that trade, he's probably catching a lot more heat at the moment. This summer's transactions have largely been pretty bad thus far, I kind of get the sense that the big Parsons deal is probably doing a lot of work in covering up for some of that, it's earned him quite a bit of fan-goodwill :P [/QUOTE]
