Basically, it all starts with Portis

All of your comments are basically just a stab at Snyder and his loose checkbook, but really, what's the point? Bashing Snyder is like shooting fish in a barrel. You make the comment that "good teams do this and that", but when was the last time that this was a "good team", especially on the organizational level? And as far as building the team through the draft, maybe you don't recall, but we drafted Arrington and Samuels.

Truthfully I like Snyder, and I believe the current problems with the big 4 are Gibbs responsiblity, I am one of the few who is behind Snyder big time, we are fortuanate enough to have an owner who will do whatever he has to to win, there are plenty of teams who don't have that kind of dedication at the top, we do, we just have to show more wisdom with how we go about it, and that's just my opinion.

As for the draft, there are many more success stories than failures, plenty of first and second rd talent have gone bust, but there are plenty of players from the third rd. on going to the hall of fame as well.
