Anybody Still Doubting Caldwell?

The problem is that it wasn't really a foundation, it was a shiny but brittle veneer built through endless FA spending and like 3 good draft picks. Campbell, Malik, Dareus, Bouye, Poz, Gipson, and Church.

EXACTLY right.  It was an unsustainable philosophy that crumbled as quickly as it was built.  You build sustained success through cheap labor (i.e. the Draft) and sprinkle in free agents to shore up deficiencies.  Caldwell apologists say "we Draft great"... HELL NO WE DON'T.  We are horrible in our draft picks.

It's between him and Shack and neither were world beaters, or anything close. Maybe we could get a better GM, but we could absolutely get somebody who's worse and that's probably what'll happen. The end of the tunnel is always better... Until you get there and realize it actually isn't.

He IS the worst GM in the League.  Show me one with a worse record.  Wins and losses is the only stat that matters in the NFL... the rest is coffee shop (or online chat board) BS.
This is a results-oriented business.  There are no trophies or titles given for "moral victories" or for "winning the draft".  Our record with DC is 37-86.  6-10 is our 2nd best season in 8 years of Caldwell leadership.  These are the FACTS.
