Reggie's actually a fucking magician guys. He fucks up everything that's even remotely difficult (drafting Mack, Carr and Cooper were the easiest decisions he ever had to make) and then somehow he gets Executive of the Year honors.
WHO THE FUCK VOTES FOR THIS SHIT???
He totally fucked up our ENTIRE 2013 draft - you know, the one that was supposed to set the table for our "rebuilding" after Al supposedly left him in "cap hell"? We had the #3 overall pick. His first two picks were Hayden and Menelik Watson. Those are the fucking guys Reggie drafted to form the foundation of our new team. Not one player from that draft is still on the team. Not one.
Once he's out of blue chip draft territory he starts flying off the handle. So we get garbage like Conley, Jihad Ward, Walford, Sio Moore, etc. Shilique Calhoun is gone. Even the "gems" he finds aren't doing shit for us this season. Washington and Richard look very much below average out there. Ellis was benched last season in favor of a different shitty player, but now he's good enough to start for us!?!
Somehow Reggie even manages to fuck up the good moves he makes.
1. We can't get the fucking ball to Cooper this year.
2. Gabe Jackson is part of our unbelievably underachieving OL this year after he cashed in on huge money.
3. We're starting a 3rd round rook at DT who hasn't gotten more than ONE TACKLE in any of the first 5 games and certainly hasn't even sniffed the QB. Remember, Vanderdoes isn't the NT here, that's Ellis. So Vanderdoes is fucking well expected to bring interior pressure. He's basically absent through 5 games.
4. As much as I like Mario Edwards, he has already missed an entire season with a dangerous injury that could end his career at any time. He has started only 15 games in his first 3 seasons. I really like him when he's healthy but shit, he has problems.
Some of the good players he signs turn into mediocre guys on our team. And my God, the guys he was signing in his first two seasons with us were absolute trash.
Reggie is just flat out bad at his job. He has gotten a little bit better over time but he's still fucking bad. That's all there is to it.
BETTER be a playoff win in 2022.
