I didn't appreciate Casserly until he left and we signed Trung Canidate as our lead back.

might have been a coaching problem. it's someone's fault the OL has been terrible there all these years.

I thought Casserly was a HORRIBLE GM. Beathard built the team, and it started going downhill during the Casserly era. He is a complete loser when it comes to talent evaluation.

Is this irony? I thought he drafted desmond howard, michael westbrook, heath shuler and sean gilbert.

westbrook was Norv's favorite in that draft, don't know who had more pull, him or Casserly.
We traded for Sean Gilbert from the rams, then we eventually got 2 1st rnd. picks for him when carolina signed him.
Desmond Howard was Gibbs' & Casserly's doing. Gibbs said he found "no holes" after they'd researched him. Casserly later said that all of the nfl had Howard rated that high too.

From what I recall Norv wanted Dilfer and Westbrook, Casserly wanted Galloway and Shuler (or vice versa)

So they compromised
