As of now, I can’t give the team a mark higher than a C.
We had two goals for the upcoming draft:
To find the players to keep or make us more competitive.
To use rookie salaries in order to clean the cap.
Clearly we got two, maybe three players so far that fit the goals.
But at the same time, we committed way too many resources obtaining these players. For this and the next two drafts.
Second and third round picks may not be building blocks, but core players that can give us 3-4 years on cheap salaries. We have given those away.
We are already cap strained, and giving away those present and future picks restrain us to move around and be able to make decisions building a younger roster.
We achieved quality, but forgot about much needed quantity.
It’s too early to grade the off-season, but even now I can say that giving away resources will keep the grade down for me.
