Whoa.. So a GM stays competitive by de-valuing players that don't fit whatever "grand scheme" they're cooking up? - I Don't think I can buy that one.
Watching guys like Dareus, Hogan, Watkins, Woods, Ragland, and yah, I'll say it, -even Pozlusny find precise roles on playoff teams just proves that historically, our personnel decisions can make other teams better, but not necessarily this one.... Filling out a roster with STRONG contributors is infinitely more advisable than filling one out with people you think have good locker-room chemistry. -Strong contributors drive competition, making the team more competitive... Want to get rid of somebody? -Why not off load the QB who refuses the throw the football? -Dump the aging, overweight RB who can't pass protect, and needs a Google Drive to find the frickin' hole! -To many fans dismay, these seem to be the players we add and even extend year after year!
