If he wasn't so obsessed with coaches from the Parcells tree and could admit he was wrong on the QB decision, this team would be very good. And it should be a fireable offense if the story is true that he was so vindictive of Haley that he refused to surround him with quality free agents. A guy who would rather watch the team struggle than be proven wrong... that's a really, really bad sign.

Solid team?
What are you basing this on?
Here are the guys he's brought in that you could even argue were good/great picks/acquisitions:
Berry
Asomoah
Hudson
Baldwin
Houston
Arenas
Moeaki
7 guys.
Berry was a no-brainer.
Arenas is a good NCB, but terrible value with that pick.
Moeaki is exactly what most thought he was - fragile.
The rest are guys that you're assuming are going to be good based on a limited number of snaps.
7 guys. In three years.
Out of hundreds of transactions.
7.
Guys.
