With all the underwhelming WR’s Beane has plucked off the scrap heap, you’d think we would get lucky just once.
I think Cooks is it. It’s our turn. Cooks is going to explode against the Pats. We are due.
I bet 90% of this board agrees with this sentiment in some form or fashion. I think the likes/dislikes to your post is already reflecting that.
His statement is a direct indictment of Beane and the scouting staff. From your summary it doesn’t sound like he said anything about poor coaching, play design etc.
I think most agree with your take here. The draft is such a hit or miss thing, Beane needs to start using all of our picks and stop freaking using them to trade up.
Beyond Allen, his trade up philosophy has simply not worked out great.
This is accurate. Oliver is def one of our top 5 defenders on the team and the way Hoecht played, you could argue he may have been a top 5 defender on our team. Those are big losses.
