say what you want about gase but it took his autistic connivery to get that loser maccagnan out of here and now we have JD, who's been a breath of fresh air so far with his free agent/acquisition approach, the messages about team building that he communicates, etc.
Has he? I feel like you all do this every time, get all excited about the new guy because he's not the old guy before he's demonstrated anything of actual value.
I'm as hopeful as anyone that he is the next Ozzie Newsome, but so far the most notable things that Douglas has done are:
- sign Ryan Kalil
- sign a bunch of second tier free agents ranging from McGovern (looks like a very tidy deal for a relatively decent player) to Fant (sounds like a lot of money for a swing tackle and jumbo TE)
- draft the guy that pretty much every single poster on this board who wouldn't have picked Wirfs would have drafted
You all did this with Idzik as well. Let's just wait and see whether he actually produces anything good, shall we?
