Colin Cowherd Takes Another Swipe

[MTK]

Same old, same old.

Sorry but for anyone who is sick of this current front office stategy the only thing I can recommend is to stop following the team, because with so little draft picks this year how else do you think they are going to approach this offseason? Get ready for more of the same.

How about showing restraint and patience? We are not going to magically become a Super Bowl team in one offseason, they need to stop trying to fix it all at once.
They could reside themselves to taking a few years and build off the draft. Sign a few cheaper FA and avoid the big name/big dollar FA signing.

I agree with you. However, I don't think Gibbs wants to "rebuild". Unfortunately, that probably hurts us in the long run.

being fans of our team gives us the right to complain or complement them on what they do. Jumping ship to another team.....come on are you serious. We all will root for our team year end and year out. unfortunately, we have been rooting for a losing team more than a winning team. All I think we are saying is until this trade picks for (fill in the blank) mentality stops or slows down, people will be frustraded. Not frustrated enough to jump ship, but frustrated to say the least. I live in NC, and I can tell you they have jumped ship to the Panthers down here (I can't stand the Panthers, they are #2 or #3 on my hate list) Most of the comments are they dont like Snyder (which I do like Snyder) or the way they run the team, blah..blah..blah.
I just have not seen a team win consistantly with our approach. If you know of one, please point them out. It hasn't worked in 7 or 8 years. I think that would send a message to the powers that be that they may need to change their strategy.

It ain't easy being an innovator. Be it right or be it wrong, because Joe2 hasn't gotten it totally right does not mean he won't or can't.
Going the same way as everybody else generally does not produce success. As somebody else pointed out earlier, there are a bunch of other teams that utilize the draft religiously, and generally suck. To suggest that the Colts, Pats, etc are successful primarily as a result of this philosophy is ridiculous.
I would much prefer to be led by a football genius than a merry-go-round coach (passed from team to team) that the NFL has so many of. Joe2 is that genius.
I personally have complete faith he can do it again. Because he has to date, not yet attained his and our goals is evidence of.................nothing

I would be more than satisfied if they went into 2008 with their first 4 picks. It's not like we have to stop signing guys who can help this team, we just need to cut it with the mass restructurings. No pun intended.

Also, if we are going to continue this current strategy, it forces us to keep Lloyd and Archuleta on the roster. Personally, I don't see a problem with having extra talent on the roster even if they are being way overpaid, but others do. We just can't afford to make these cuts AND restructure a bunch of deals AND sign more FAs.
