Gettleman has done great and has done a great job finding these secondary gems, but the pillars of this team (except Star) were all drafted by Marty Hurney.

 

MH is the person most responsible for this teams lack of depth, cap issues, and absurd losing seasons.

Hurney gets credit but our success is as much about what Gettleman did in the offseason.  Getting Dwan back and playing hardball, signing Mitchell and Mikell, Florence, Blackburn.  Drafting Star/Short/Klein who are looking good.   Robert Lester looking good, etc.  Keeping Captain here and signing Ginn too.

As with a lot of things, there was both good and bad with Hurney... he absolutely NAILED quite a few picks (see OP for several examples) but completely whiffed on many, many more. 

 

So, if you're going to praise him for the good picks he also deserves a big WTF for the rest of them.

it seems that gettleman is much better at finding bargain bin talent than hurney ever was. I know it's a small sample size and only his first year, but gettleman has provided us with a TON of contributors this year, enough to make me believe we are where we are because of him.
