How many GMs have actually built a contender though? My argument isn’t for Jerry and co. I’m just saying the past few years they’ve made moves that were top 10 in the league. Some of these GMs can’t draft as half as good as Dallas.
I don't pay all that much attention to other team's GMs, or even who they are. I admit it. I only know that Jerry has huge flaws as a GM the keeps us from the promised land. And if you consider the fact that Jerry refuses to do the duties of a GM(perusing tape of possible draftees, for instance), then my only conclusion is that he is terrible. I see him making the same mistakes in the draft continuously. He appears to not even understand what lateral agility is, which might be the biggest fail trait of players. Reggie Robinson, Jeff Heath, Ted Somethingornother, same guys. Speed galore, but no turning ability. And almost every S he drafts is a big tall hitter type who can't cover granny. Over and over and over. Tall slim DL's who can't hold their ground, LB's who lack instincts or lateral agility, OL's w/ great feet who lack sand in their pants.
How is a GM any good who ignores the "make it" traits of a player? Or worse, doesn't even understand them, and I'm not sure he does. I've seen no evidence of it, and a bunch of evidence to the contrary.
If it's really important to you to proclaim that Jerry is the best of the really bad GMs, OK I guess, but I don't even pretend to understand how that is relevant.
