It is interesting to consider whether talent evaluation was really the issue or just a lack of philosophy/identity etc.

Bruce had a really good draft the year he was GM after Shanny was fired, even without a 1st round pick. His one successful draft, albeit a small sample size, suggests talent evaluation isn't an issue.

Remember though, at that period of time though, nobody knew what a "Redskin" was.

McLovin brought, as much as anything, an identity to the team. He sought out players who loved the game of football (not just the money) more than anything, who were tough as nails. That type of personality is contagious. I really hope the team continues to prioritize those intangibles.
