Pioli's lousy drafts killing our roster/depth

If our players stink so bad and couldn't start anywhere else how the hell did we win 18 games last year?

They dont stink. Seymour, Jackson, Maroney,Bru,Vrabel,Harrison and Cassel stink. Some of those guys are just washed up, but they still suck now.

I don't know. NSA, D-Money, maryjane and thearchives obviously know better than this Sporting News thing you are talking about. What is that?

I'm beginning to think NSA and Patslifer and maryjane and perhaps a couple of others are split personalities sharing one oxygen starved brain and multiple IP's... the old tag team troll routine. Couple try to go stealth and then the dominant personality emerges yet again...

I'm also beginning to think Ian created the Practice Squad forum just to placate some of us... It does no good unless you use it. And not just for corraling stupid threads, but for isolating the idiots who keep posting them.

Umm, it's called Tom Brady, Randy Moss, Wes Welker, and company. So EVERY player on last year's team is GOOD just because we went 18-0? Absurd. You think every player on our 2001 team was good because we won the super bowl? Absurd. Am I criticizing the whole team? No. I am criticizing Pioli for the way he has handled the drafting the last 4 years. Period. Had he done a better job, than we could own at least 1 more super bowl. If Chad Jackson and Bethel Johnson weren't complete BUSTS for 2nd rd WR picks, than maybe we would have beaten the Colts in 2006 instead of watching Bug Eyes Caldwell drop easy passes to seal the win. Hey, nobody's perfect, but Pioli has been AVERAGE AT BEST the last 4 years drafting players. Just admit it.

Will you delete your account if I can prove this is not NSA? Have the mods check the ip's right now. Get ready to delete.

I'm with ya man. It's a crime to say Vrabel, Seymour, Bru, and Harrison stink on this board. Hey, they were great, but aren't anymore. Seymour NEVER dominates against elite teams. NEVER. He always looks like a beast and gets his meaningless sacks against the bottom feeders. When we play Pittsburgh, Indy, Giants, Cowboys, and the good teams he is NOWHERE to be found.

Funny
Look DannyNSAPatslifermaryjane, just pick a user name, and stick to it, or better yet, just delete all four and go away?
Thanks.

The voice of reason, the great NSA! Listen man, I love guys like Bru and Vrabel.....but, the sad fact is they are washed up and they suck now. We need to move on.

Sey, Vrabel, Harrison, Bru, Jackson(gone) and SloMo all need to go.

Stop talking to yourself, or the men in the white coats will be coming by soon.

Again, have the mods verify ip's. You delete your account if I'm not NSA! You game?

Dear NSA,

We regret to inform you that your application for Sports Writer has been rejected. We are currently beyond capacity with overly critical, Patriot hating attention seekers. As a gesture of good will, do feel free to scratch n' sniff Tom Jackson's seat at our New York office.

Sincerely
ESPN

You forgot to add Wes Welker - a 2nd round pick in 2007 and Randy Moss - a 4th rounder in 2007.

Taking that into account, looks like two good drafts (2005 and 2007) and two bad drafts (2004 and 2006) - not anything to get one's panties in a bunch about.

oh please! STOP THE KOOL-AID.

True 2nd rounders and 4th rounder sign for PEANUTS, not top $ like these guys did. How many 2nd rounders get Welker's 8M signing bonus or whatever? How many 4th rounders get 6M per year?

STOP.

LOL, my car is running and I'm just waiting for the call from BB to pick these bums up and drive them to the airport to get them the hell out of town! Good lord, I love Bru, but the guy is slower than paint drying on a wall. I feel bad for Rodney getting hurt, but it was a blessing in disguise he went down last night. We will be better without him in the long run if Merriweather lives up to his 1st rd status. We need to ship these fossils out and get younger. That's why it pisses me off Pioli has been swinging and missing in the draft because we don't have the young blood to replace these grey beards.

Exactly, you don't have the stones to bet on it. If I am not NSA you delete your account.....right now?!

You delete yours first:disagreement:
Seriously, just stop pretending.

NSA, you da MAN!

Trading UP for Bethel Johnson and UP for Jackson? OMG, they SUCK. They are worse than useless. How is it possible to be that stupid? Bethel Johnson had chronic stomach problems...duh, you think they might have researched that? He sucked on his college team, minimal production. He sucked! And he sucked here, big surprise.

You, sir, have the balls to step into the lion's den and tell it like it is. THE EMPEROR HAS NO CLOTHES.

I was telling these people about LoMo being a BUST last september and about Big SEY being OVERRATED. For some reason people are unwilling to look at LoMo's production and realize it is AVERAGE(at best!) for the #21 overall pick in the draft. If he was a 5th rd pick, than I wouldn't be complaining. However, you waste the #21 pick in the draft on a RB that was NEVER able to carry the whole load in college? You don't draft guys in rd 1 that need to split the load with another RB. I'm sorry. Dallas drafted Barber in Rd #4. He never carried the load full time in college either. You don't draft RB's #21 in the draft unless they are capable of being a HORSE. You can find guys in rd's 3,4, and 5 that can SPLIT the load and give you LoMo's production. Good grief.
