Hurney and Fox still "have confidence in Jake."

That isn't what it means at all. From 2002 to 2009, Hurney has drafted 11 total starters. This includes people on their rookie contracts.

Sorry, read it wrong. Can't blame myself though, I only got a couple of hours of sleep. :D

And what good is drafting people if you can't keep them on the team? Anyway, there are only two that are starting somewhere: Witherspoon and Hangartner. Three if you count Omiyale (is he still starting dimbee?) and he was undrafted. So even if you count that, it hardly matters. Include those players and Hurney has drafted/brought in undrafted 14 players.

What good is it if you don't keep them here? Seriously? You can't possibly keep every single player. Part of the NFL is choosing which you are going to keep, because you can't keep every single player. Just doesn't happen. That doesn't make him a bad GM. Now I agree that he has made mistakes letting certain players go (Witherspoon, Moose for example) and that is a valid point that I would agree with you on.

Not true. There are 8 starters from the first five years of his drafts still on the team. 11 is the total over 8 years (including rookies and everything.

No. Players not drafted by Hurney that start: Delhomme, Hoover, Moose, Steve Smith, Vincent, Brayton, Lewis, Kemo, Diggs, Harris.

My mistake again. My statements were based off my first reading and as I already said I misunderstood, so my bad. Although, when I said "here," I didn't say "by Hurney," so I was a little less wrong than that list.

No, really, name some good moves that I missed from the past 8 years. Seriously try to.

Off the top of my head, I don't remember what you included in your original list, what you missed, and I don't want to take the time to go back through the past 8 years to research all the moves we made, at least not right now.

Good things:

Tyler Brayton.

Signing Jake Delhomme in the first place.

Na'il Diggs.

Getting Chris Harris (was a trade, I know, but I'll put it here.)

Just a few more without doing much research

Stephen Davis

Mark Fields

Ricky Proehl

Damione Lewis

I think the fox hurney crap is just setting up Jake to retire. JR respects JD too much. He has done a lot for the franchise. They would rather JD retire rather than the team just cut him. Isn't he like 36 or 37? Yeah, I say it's a set up for Jake to retire

**or maybe just wishful thinking**
