Kahn has basically rebuilt the entire roster

More that Cowher and Noll combined too!

Tomlin had also a drought of 4 years without playoffs win in 2011 to 2014

 

Omar Khan seems to be steering the draft well up to now.


He's drafted OL with BroJo, Fautanu, Frazier, McCormick, and Spencer Anderson. 4 are expected to start and Anderson is a multiple position backup. Even if these guys don't all pan out, it is a solid plan and execution.

On DL he's drafted Benton, Lee, Harmon, Black, Herbig and Sawyer. That's drafting to improve the trenches on both sides.


Like I said, can't tell how this will work out long term, but it is the right way to rebuild a team without completely giving up on being competitive.

 

don't CARE how I want it NOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWwwwwwwwwww *honk* *honk*

 

While I'm not excited with where we are at QB, some of these outlets seem to be ignoring the context of the situation. The one move that could have been made in free agency was Fields. I'd prefer him over Rodgers, if for no other reason than the lottery ticket's chance of upside he had. Failing to secure him to then sit around and wait on Rodgers, with a backup plan of Rudolph/Howard, comes off as poorly-planned and counter-intuitive in a way that represents the strange teeter-tottering the club does between compete and rebuild.

As for the draft, I'm not sure who they think would solve the problem and where they should have taken him. This was simply not a strong QB class. That doesn't mean we won't see some starters come out of the class, but outside of Ward none stood out on film as a guy they had to take at 21. The best argument I see is passing on Sanders in the fourth.

They're getting flak because they haven't seemed more urgent in finding some kind of solution/patch, and some of that is deserved. But some of their critics are being lazy in their reproach as well.
