I still say Marko Mitchell should have stood out but for whatever reason be it Zorn or Hixon he never played. I honestly think the Mitchell situation was a result of poor coaching and not the type were you can say something to the effect of "oh the coaches know better then you."

The truth is we sucked and when you suck you need to take risk and see if some of the young guys can play. Marko Mitchell showed more then enough to warrant at least a look.

Hopefully the new coaching staff will make use of him. Shanahan certainly doesn't mind guys like Mitchell given his best reciever as a head coach was an UDFA (Mitchell was a 7th round pick btw)

By the way, when do we get the Goodmans?

No certainty they'll get the Goodmans (or one or the other), but the scouts and other front office execs' contracts run through April so you won't likely see any changes until May at the earliest

Man the scouting stuff is so confusing. I mean how can you contribute scouting wise if you've only worked the beat for a month or two? Plus aren't the Goodmans unemployed while we have a staff shortage? What's stopping us from bringing them in now if we're going to at all? Why is this post nothing but questions?
