Let’s be fair both ways while we are at it. Those were two nice catches by JJAW today. And perhaps more impactful....I don’t recall him being in the fucking worst place on a play like last week. Maybe baby steps. Maybe an anomaly. I’m not sold any better on the guy. So caveat there.....
....I do wonder a bit about all the reaction to draft picking, as it’s felt a bit over emphasized that last few weeks. Our number two pick just ran the fuck over them tonight. Our number two pick the previous year had a hell of a game. Goedert and Sanders represent some really strong draft pick wins.
Yep...there have been some messes too along the way. But that is often par for the course for anyone.
I’m not saying this to say Howie should have free rein on personnel, I personally believe a top priority needs to be to get a smart personnel guy in to work with him. But the picking the last few years has not been that horrendous.
Andy Weidl is supposed to be the Guru helping Howie. He is Joe Douglas' buddy, and stayed with the Birds (of course he was given Douglas' old job). The problem is, Howie still has the final say. Give Weidl the final say.
