Re: Worst 5 Moves of Snyder era?

How is Gibbs getting blamed for the bad front office moves during his tenure? Yeah the team was very similar to what we had when he got there ,but thats not a bad thing. He tried to bring some stability , which he did. My top 5 in no order are...

1)Overpaying in trades. Every time we do a trade we never seem to get the same value that other team would get. We either give up an extra pick or don't receive an extra pick. And theres many examples of this Portis , Duckett , Moss , Taylor ,trading down last year ,ect.

2)Giving up on are coaching staff. Poor Jason Campells had to learn a new system almost every year. Then Synder turns around and wonders why he isn't a super star. He gave up on Marty and Norv ,gave up on Marvin lewis while throwing out Spurrier , and gave up on Greg Williams and Al Saunders when Gibbs left. Gibbs had planned for them to take the mantle and Synder said i want things my way. Which lead to number 3

3)How do you hire on o-cord before a head coach. One ,it made us look like complete morons ,and showed we have no plan and just do things on a whim. And since people realize how we work ,no respectable coach would come here. So we move a guy who was a QB coach into a head coach spot. Now i like Zorn but realize theres a learning curve ,But Synder is not know for his patience. When some big names pop up next year as head coaching candidates ,unless we go to the super bowl Zorn will be gone.

4) Blaming Jason Campell for are decline last year and trying to replace him. Yes Campell isnt a TOM Brady or Peyton Manning but hes a decent starter.If the Ravens can win a super bowl with Trent DIlfer we can win with Campell. We have a simular set up in place already -strong def and good run game ,just need some turnovers. It seems Syder just wants someone to fire and blame , since he has to ride Zorn one more year Campells his guy.Plus since Falco and Matt Ryan did well last year he thinks Sanchez will do that for us. But Ryan didnt win games Michael Turner did and not Flacco but Ed Reed ,a great defense , and a strong run game. Thouse QB's were not pressed to win game just to minimaze there mistakes.

5) Letting are good young cheap talent go and bringing in over priced names. The few draft picks we have , we draft better then most teams. So are scouting department is good when Synder isn't in love with some one like Sanchez. But to many times we have given up big money to outsiders and have none for are own.Perice is the most obvise ,and he was gonna stay at a discount.I see us doing this with Golston and Montgemery and Heyer and maybe even Chris Horton.
