Sherman was given a strong base. He supplemented it with a few solid players. Then, the guys that Wolf acquired got old."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson

I've said many times Sherman was a below average GM; but now that I've witnessed some of his draft picks develop into solid players, he's not nearly as bad as I once thought.TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

Treading water?!Originally posted by retailguyBut what a fun ride it was.Originally posted by The ShadowSherman's 'strong base' was a team headed down a greased slide to oblivion.
Now, we are treading water in the quicksand.... Yep, thats A LOT more fun.
We won 4 more games in 2006 than in 2005.
I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud
They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

Two guys from the 2004 draft are still in the league: Corey Williams and Scott Wells. Well, if you don't count B.J. Sander. That draft included Donnell Washington, Sander, Ahmad Carroll, and Joey Thomas. That was pathetic.Originally posted by BretskyI've said many times Sherman was a below average GM; but now that I've witnessed some of his draft picks develop into solid players, he's not nearly as bad as I once thought.Originally posted by HarveyWallbangersSherman was given a strong base.

Two guys from the 2003 draft class are still in the league: Nick Barnett and Hunter Hillenmeyer (average starter for the Bears). That draft included James Lee and Kenny Peterson. That was pathetic.
Those two drafts set this franchise on the downward spiral.
He may or may not have been primarily responsible for 2001--which was another pathetic bunch.
The 2002 draft wasn't terrible. Only got two guys that have been starters most of their career, but they were two good ones in Javon and Kampman.
Still. Who took over your account? Sander. Donnell Washington. Batman Carroll. Joey Thomas. James Lee. Kenny Peterson. Marques Anderson. Think about what you're saying man.

But I think I counted about a dozen players he brought in still in the NFL from 02, 03, and 04TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

Last year you pulled a pretty impressive disappearing act when things were going well. You did show up just in time for Free Agency. Fan despeperation is an easy thing to manipulate. You do it well

What are you talking about? I was here. I have yet to disappear, rest assured, I'll be here, talking it up with you....
Maybe I'll even send you a postcard.
FWIW, I lost over 500 posts in the 2 month disappearing act... when the site crashed! I was here!!!
