Our dline could easily be thisCam Jordan, McCoy, Sheldon Richardson, Michael Bennett/John Abraham Instead we have an atrocious dline that McCoy has to share the LOS withInstead of Revis we could have signed Grimes, and traded for Sean Smith while saving $$ Our cb's are all below average other than 1 guy (revis)Instead of Carl Nicks could have easily gotten Ben Grubbbs for way lessWe'd have more cap space to sign center Alex Mack.Whats really depressing is the kind of dline we could already have instead of trying to patch it with guys like Allen who will not be cheap and has a short shelf life.

another idiot post. if we go by your logic practically every GM in this league was horrible too...
Why did I open this thread?
WTF Dom, can't you see into the future like SANTANA??
It's easy to be arm chair GM after the fact.
terrible postDominik screwed up some things but he left us in a good situation with regards to the cap. all of his deals were front loaded and allow us to dump guys with very little dead cap money. he missed on some players but every GM does. he also cant help the Brian Price had familiy tragedy and then self destructed in his personal life. ill give you the Michael bennett situation but for the most part you are bitching just to bitch
He did a horrible job.
Like it or not the best GMs only hit on 1-2 long term players each draft. Dominik more or less accomplished that. The problem was the successful GMs are able to piece together thise 1-2 long term players each draft with some free agents and other short term players and win games, usually by having a good QB. Dominik obviously couldn't do that.
Here's the thing. Many people wanted Cam Jordan and were shocked when we passed on him for Clayborn.These are things that cannot be swept under the rug because the decisions looked bad from the start.People on here wanted Freeney/Abraham, it was obvious this team needed an edge rusher. It was common sense.How am I an idiot when I wanted this team to be run with some common sense? Not Dominik logic which had usbuild the defense from the back end, no edge rusher, no tight end, no SLOT WR, no speed on offense... just a football team built backwards and now we're paying the price instead of having a legit roster.This is not about HINDSIGHT, its about COMMON SENSE. Look at Seattle, what they did with Avril and Bennet... those are signings that shows brainsbecause it makes perfect sense to have a rotational dline that can get after it. I judge Dominik mostly by the dline and the defense. Clayborn off a knee injury coming off the edge, instead of Bennett/Abraham/Freeney? After already failing on the pick instead of picking the BPA Cam Jordan...
Well, then who should we pick this year in the draft? Let's see if you have better foresight than our new GM.

SMH Freeney was hurt most of the season and didn't have much of an impact when healthy. Abraham was a known cancer. I wanted Cam Jordan also, but it was definitely more of a toss up than you lead on. Cam didn't have near the production Clay had in college.But I suppose your common sense would have moved back up into the first to grab Doug. Or moved again to grab undersized LB in Lavonte, who has become one of the best LBs in the league.Please, what I'd like you to do is create your common sensical offseason right now (keeping in mind financial constraints - not just "ohh i want him and him and him") and we'll see how much "common sense" (apparently AKA precognition) you have. I do think Dom made some bad choices(like all GMs), but you're roasting him for the wrong things and neglecting praise for the good things.
Well, then who should we pick this year in the draft? Let's see if you have better foresight than our new GM.
Best possible scenario is Watkins being there but I doubt it (Bridgewater or Manziel would have been ideal)In no way do I think we should trade up, trade down if possible for either Ebron, Kony Ealy or Marqise Lee (in that order)Sadly since Penn, Nicks and Joseph are what they are... and if we can't move out from #7 we have to take a guy like Greg Robinson or Jake Matthews, if not maybe we could have taken the risk on Barr or Mack

He inherited about $70M of cap space and if we were paying an average QB salary we would be over the salary cap right now. And if we cut Nicks and Goldson they would account for $16M in dead money. Price is an example of him being naive. Teams knew he was injured and was a thug and passed. Dominik loved injured players and scum bags.
