20 Of Our 22 Starters Were Originally Drafted By Us

thanks for the update. my mistake. how did I not know that

Good point. I just thought your little buzz kill was over kill and said what came to mind.

it's funny how we're always building for the future yet we never actually have a true championship caliber team

if we drafted like the Packers, Giants, Ravens, Steelers then I would be perfectly fine ignoring free agency but the fact is we're nowhere near as good in the draft as those teams. I'd like to see us be more active in free agency to supplement our drafts and fill holes when we miss on draft picks but it seems like we're content to stick with this "only add guys through the draft, ignore free agency" mantra straight into an eternity of mediocrity

Well that has been the plan for the last 2 seasons. I just hope we start to see it translate into wins soon.

drafting outstanding players on the team doesn't mean a thing if you draft a shitty quarterback. we just drafted an outstanding quarterback to complement our other outstanding picks.

I don't have a problem building through the draft but there is something to be said about improving through Free Agency.

Guys we draft good. The past is 100% John Fox fault and has no bearing on this team.

I think your being sarcastic, but ironically i'm not when I say I agree with that sentiment.

[FirstRoundPick]

Yeah we got a QB. But not much of a pass rush. QB is easily the most important part of the team, but second is pass rush in todays NFL. Depsite the increase of importance of pass rush ours have been declining every year since 2007. Poor way to build a team, but a least we draft good LBers and RBs in the first round right?

So it will be 100% Rivera in a few years, then?

If Hurney is still here. Yes it isn't his fault.

Surely you see that this hasn't actually been a good thing.

why don't you just STFU and go away?

[R0CKnR0LLA]

guys please don't point out negative things about my team even if they're true. it makes me extremely butthurt

Not butt hurt............. all he does is point out the negative every day

it gets a little old.

If we can continue to develop these guys, this will allow us to have a long period of sustained success.
