Quote:Agreed.  DC has hit on a couple late round picks but the body of work is bad.  I wouldn't even care if he was canned with bradley.  The fact that he still supports bradley is fuel to the fire that he needs to go.  Ramsey was an obvious pick that 80% of casual fans would have made.

 

That actually is not as big an issue to me. DC is a first time GM. His first coaching hire was Gus. His first draft pick was Luke. He seems to have been soft on them somewhat because they were his firsts. But he has not really been as easy on others that much. Plus he finally put Luke on notice this year with Beachum, and has said that the expectations were much higher for W-L this year for Gus.

 

Plus we don't really know who has more power on Bradley staying, Khan vs DC. Sure, he could have got in Khan's ear and done his best to convince him, but DC seems like the guy who blames himself before others and didn't feel he had legitimately put enough talent on the roster to compete on the field.

 

My issue is that he is probably right on that count, and doing that in 4 years is at best average. Don't fire average for just anyone though. You have to know who you are going after, and I don't get the sense that above average is out there nor that Khan knows who that is either.
