Meh. I think the Grigson era has been caricatured to the extent that it's significantly misrepresented at this point. That's not a defense of Grigson; he wasn't a good GM, but that's because he drafted poorly, not because he signed a few free agents.

 

Speaking of, I think Caserio's drafting has been mixed. Nico Collins in 2021, Stingley and Harris in 2022, and not much else. Then they had the 2nd and 3rd picks in 2023, and nailed the QB. We'll see this year and next whether their drafting has been good enough. 

 

I think the Danielle Hunter signing is excellent. Mixon should be good, we'll see about Diggs. But the less popular moves -- signing Al-Shaair, Okudah, even Autry (overrated by Colts fans, but still a nice vet option) -- are the ones that I think deserve more credit. They won 10 games last year, and they have a really good QB on a rookie contract, so they're taking a shot right now. You're right, it can go either way, and I think people are crowning them prematurely, but I also think they're doing what they should be doing.

Yesterday, it proved he's doing better building his roster than we are.
