That quote jumped out at me too - I watched him in the press conference yesterday when he said this. You know how sometimes you hear a snippet on the radio, or read a quote in an article, and without the context it can seem like the media's making a big deal out of nothing.
With this one I thought it was a clear shot at McCloughan. I think they probably have a good enough working relationship but it's clear Jay would rather see need enter the equation a bit on the 1st rounders. Makes sense, the coach's time horizon is always shorter than the GM's.
Like I've said before I just hope McCloughan does the right thing and gets aggressive with a couple of these big needs.
