I think when you garner this much attention in a big market, your fanbase is going to be pretty impatient.



Jason Taylor was the last time this happened, and I don't think he was garbage (so do people that talk football for a living).



In New England, Darth Hoody calls the shots, no one else. Otherwise I do agree with your points here.



I think the team has built through the draft, it is just that the big flashy trades tend overshadow this. All of these players have been built through the draft: Chris Cooley, Sean Taylor, Carlos Rogers, Rocky McIntosh, Jason Campbell, Derrick Dockery, Kedrick Golston, Anthony Montgomery, Reed Doughty, Laron Landry and Chris Samuels.

And between last year and this year, they continue to build through the draft with Malcolm Kelly, Devin Thomas, Fred Davis, Chad Rinehart, Chris Horton, Kareem Moore, Brian Orakpo, and Kevin Barnes.
Good post Ruh
