"I (nobody) don't have any idea how this stuff will play out". "We got lucky". It means what it means. Jesus, get off of it. I'm not a Grigson fan and never was. I was called that by people, unlike Chris and me, who don't understand how this stuff works. I'm not the guy who calls for firing the GM. I know the next guy might not have any better success. I guess a person who doesn't hate someone's job performance relative to what they think the next guy will do, seems like a fan to others who base their hate for the GM on misplaced opinion that this stuff is about genius and clairvoyance. Finally, after about 6 or 7 drafts did it sink with many that the next GM isn't always that much better. The new guy doesn't have gobs more special knowledge or talent that anybody else in that profession has. -

Yes. Its amazing that anybody would think of the draft working any other way. Its even lucky to be sitting with the first pick when a generational QB declares for the NFL draft. Or unlucky...like Pitt...when you need a QB and the best option coming out that year is Kenny Pickett. Polian used to say...even when picking late in the first round..."the draft fell exactly the way we expected it to". Always bluster, IMO. Its like Poker. You can strategize all you want, but if the cards fall against you, you are not going to win. Nobody ever won a Table without luck working in their favor. Its about experience and luck. Genius or clairvoyance isn't part of it. IMO.

That same argument can be made about any draft picks. From the 1st guy off the board to the last. Even UDFA, for example look at Jeff Saturday. there is a degree of luck to the draft. Absolutely. But there is also some skill involved and picking up on what traits increases the odds of the luck falling into your favor. Doesn’t mean it will of course. -
It’s entirely possible that they have offers out to those guys and they’re just not signing yet hoping for camp injuries that will give the player more leverage for more money
