To be fair he said the coach didn't call JRob because they had a draftable grade on him and he assumed he had already been picked up by a team, but that just raises other concerning questions.

Point being, we got really lucky to have JRob and Dave gets none of the credit. If anything the RB coaches wife is the best GM we've had in more than a decade.

First let me preface this with: At this point I want DC fired after this year.

-This story sounds like utter [BLEEP]. If the RB coach is on record, Ok then I guess.
-They had a draftable grade on him meaning Dave/ his scouts liked him at least a little. According to this stupid story at least.
-Dave would have had a huge hand in recognizing the talent after Robinson arrived in camp and ultimately deciding to cut his highly drafted predecessor. If nothing else can we recognize that decision took some balls. He knew he was going to get panned for that move and still pulled the trigger. I called the decision completely stupid at the time.

It is OK to give credit to Caldwell for his good moves and acknowledge he has made too many poor moves to be retained.

This is 100% on Khan. No excuses. It's too easy to hide behind a GM, who hides behind the coach, who hides behind...lunchmeat.

Kahn is the CEO. He may know nothing about football, but he is a businessman and should know something about taking action to get results. His refusal to act (albeit to ignorance) is the main reason this team is not getting better. He left Dave in charge and Dave is clueless. This is Kahn's doing.
