Maybe, but I still think AP is a talented guy. Lattimore didn't work out, but most folks on this site were probably pleased when we signed him. Tunsil has worked out. I think Deebo has worked out. Wise looked like he'd be a great addition before he got hurt. Armstrong was working out well before he got hurt. Will Harris didn't play enough before getting injured, so hard to tell. McCaffrey was showing some promise, particularly on teams, before he was hurt. Amos has shown promise. As has Conerly. I mean, I am not sure what AP was going to do short of getting rid of literally everyone from the Rivera era not named Tress Way (who actually pre-dated Rivera). Luvu made a pro bowl last year, although this year has been pretty crappy -- I have to think scheme is part of it. We've definitely had a few guys hang on too long -- Wagner and Ertz come to mind -- but both played very well last year but this year look like they've gone off the cliff. And the McLaurin holdout wasn't on the team -- I think his agent had him awaiting a deal that was never to (and did not) come to pass. It's not like these decisions have been all bad. And the injuries have been brutal and not limited to the old-timers either.
