At least we're getting proven talent.

Yeah I know, this way of doing things costs alot more, but Snyder and company seem to have the cap massage down to a science, so I say stick with what they do best.

Well, if one playoff appearance in 6 seasons represents the "best" this front office has to offer, and if what you say is true -- that since they can't evaluate rookies, they simply leave it to other teams to do all the scouting work, that doesn't exactly speak well for Snyderatto & Co.

Unfortunately, you're right on about the draft picks. Even the "can't miss" 1st and 2nd rounders like Patrick Ramsey and Taylor Jacobs are wonderful examples of this front office's incompetence in drafting.
