Thread: JFE listed as one of the least trusted GM's in the NFL

Here’s another free tip; if you’re into keeping your cheap kites what ya do is roll your kite string around a 2”x4” that’s about 12’ Long. Then you’re reeling it in at 1’ at a time instead of 1”.

You’re welcome.

Elway said it himself at PFM’s retirement presser, it’s easy to recruit when you have PFM and that building at team without him will be a huge challenge.

I just used a fishing reel.

Sounds like a lot of work.

Isn't the Colts GM in his first year? I thought the Colts GM was fired last year and Ballard was recently hired. If so, then how can you claim he is awful??

Yes, I just did some research and last season was his first season as the GM of the Colts, so I am curious as to what you are basing your statement on that he is a horrible GM?

I thought it was the same GM. I apologize for my sin.

Did you EVER bother to look up anything for yourself before you spout your usual nonsense?

Ya'll want to get a room for your pissing contest?

Elway wants to claim that they will get more out of last year's draft class this year since they had about zero impact. We'll see about that.

Statistical analysis ranks us as the 30th best drafting team over the last 5 years, out of 32.

Sorry JFE GM apologists, we suck at drafting.

I don't think there are too many, even amongst those who support Elway who would argue that we draft well... We suck at drafting. Elway lives and breathes in FA and we haven't been able to attract or pay many free agents now that Manning's retired.

This is a crucial year for Elway to have a solid draft. He needs at least some of these players to pan out.

I wonder how much of Elway's 2011 draft was Xanders. Rams (Xanders is senior personnel exec) have been the #4 team in those rankings.

He also needs some of the last two year's drafts to pan out as well. One good class won't fix the long term problems.

That is why he brought Kubiak back in and now Matt Russell will advise strictly regarding defensive players. Kubiak is supposed to help coordinate the evaluation of offensive talent after the repeated fiascos of drafting offensive talent the last few years.
