obviously the FO is accountable to the organization (and by extension to the fans) but what i'm saying is why do so many fans blindly take the word of the "pundits" over the personnel employed to draft specifically for this team. It's like every decision that the FO makes is questioned and by default is categorized as being a bonehead move. But any two-bit sportswriter can give their opinion about a specific move and everyone immediately takes that to be gospel. No one ever questions about whether the pundits are wrong about this guy.

Look at the very least we shouldn't arbitrarily be considering a pick to be a disaster or annointing someone before these guys have played a single down of football. I think the whole concept of grading a draft/pick before seeing the on-field product is preposterous...
