So if Mangini is this great talent evaluator like you say he is then why haven’t any of the 31 other nfl teams realized this? It’s not like he hasn’t had opportunities he most recently had the TE coach and DC gigs in San Francisco (which he also sucked at) Why did the 49ers pick an ex-player with no experience like John Lynch to be their GM over the once in a generation evaluator of talent Eric Mangini?

Took over a 4-12 team that was $25 million dollars over the salary cap, cleaned house, drafted elite talent at OLT, C, and CB1, signed Damien Woody, Alan Faneca, Kris Jenkins, Calvin Pace, and Alan Faneca, and drafted a ten year starter at ILB in David Harris. Traded for Thomas Jones. Left all that in the cupboard for Rex, whose amazing coaching ability seemed to disappear once all of those guys Mangini put on the roster fell off the roster, similar to the way Herm looked worse the further he got away from Parcells’ roster. 1 And with all that, the only time he got to the playoffs was with Herm's team. And was then promptly one & done. He couldn't make the playoffs with Brett Favre at QB, then Rex took allegedly the same team to the AFC Championship Game twice with Mark Sanchez at QB.

But there has been some level of contribution from every one of the other guys. 3rd year is typically make or break. I'll be looking at Lee, Jenkins, and Shell to see if we have longterm starters and Burris to see if he can ever hope to take over at CB2. Lee is a bust. He's going to get benched at some point this season. Jenkins is a steady contributor and is still on the rise. Good player for years to come. Shell is an OK player that would never be benched because there's no one else behind him. All in all, the 1st round was a complete abortion. Really that's what's most upsetting.

Bleedin Green Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Are we back to hearing more of this fan-fabricated nonsense that is desperate to praise Mangini for a job that wasn't his, in order to make up for his colossal failures at the job that actually was his? If you seriously want to know how much credit Mangini deserves for the building of the Jets' roster, it's not that all difficult to figure out. Shortly after he was gone from the Jets, the guys he was so gleeful to acquire in a trade from them (in a deal that everyone agreed was laughably in the Jets' favor) were Kenyon Coleman, Abram Elam, and Brett Ratliff. That right there, was the result of his own evaluation of players. That's not even to mention, this little theory is extremely dependent on dismissing the team's draft when he had been here the longest (2008) and therefore is likely to have had the greatest involvement from him, if he ever had any, which was an absolute disaster.

Sperm Edwards Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 On 5/9/2018 at 11:46 AM, Saul Goodman said: Not a single goddamn offensive lineman. I wonder where our team would be if we had used the first 5 picks on the offensive line. Couldn’t be worse! In fairness, 3 picks the prior year were used on the OL. Two of them were still NFL starters last year (the 3rd being a 6th round DT convert project who never panned out). Also Ferguson and Mangold were still playing at a high enough level through 2013, plus they had a dirt-cheap starter in Colon and had just inked Giacomini to a 5-year deal. As it panned out, Ferguson (still only 31) really began showing a noticeable decline starting in 2014 (after the draft); Winters/Aboushi took a few seasons to show either belonged on the field; Colon committed too many penalties (though he started all 32 games from 2013-2014); and Giacomini ended up being a bad signing. At the time of the draft, what the team most needed were skill positions. We drafted them, but they just sucked. Even if you wanted to draft Brick’s replacement before he started playing badly, it’s unusual to find a starting LT past round 1, and few (if any) GMs would have taken a LT prospect in round 1 with that roster. We did show the folly of a team with more pressing other needs (like QB, a young edge rusher, and playmaking WR; all of which were there) staying pat and taking a safety in round 1.

Dixon started 5 games for the Giants down the stretch (that's more games than Juston Burris has started in his career). Kind of interesting (to me) that Brandon Dixon is out of the league. I know the Giants had issues in the secondary last year, but he had 5 starts for them and basically played every defensive snap in 4 out of their last 5 - he got hurt 4 snaps into the Philly game, but came back to play every defensive snap the last 2 weeks. In the (basically) 4 games, he had 21 tackles, 4 passes defended and a forced fumble. For a guy that has been on rosters and practice squads since the draft, you'd think that would be enough to get him on somebody's 90. I guess maybe teams don't want 28 year old fringe players. FWIW, George is still hanging on with the Colts, but they moved to a 4-3, so he probably won't last as a Kevin Minter styled thumper. The Pats signed Reilly to play specials. He is already 30, so his career is probably close to an end. Jace Amaro is with the Chiefs. For now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
