Even if it's something seemingly as minor as windows in the weight room.  I am not sure if I roll my eyes at the sports performance aspect.  What do I know?  I'm just a fan.  But I think Chark's example, where he has gained ten pounds and got faster, is significant.

He wasn't my first choice, but I am hoping like hell he succeeds here.

I think it's all about player development, and the players' perception of how they are being treated, as a player and as a person.  I think that's important.  We've been in a 10-year swamp, with one outlying year, and it's something that's hard to dig out of, as we have seen with numerous teams across this league and other leagues.  

Why has a guy with obvious physical talent like Taven Bryan never developed into anything?  Why do players like Ramsey and Ngakoue force their way out of town?  Drafting has to improve, for sure, but a lot of our problem has been player development and player retention.  

So I applaud Meyer for trying to improve everything, including facilities, training methods, nutrition, you name it.  Because just drafting Trevor Lawrence isn't going to turn us into perennial winners.
