Rick seems to be making quite a name for himself over these past couple of drafts with his big trades. I don't recall him being that savvy when he was with Miami.
Talks about him making another move with the Jags to trade down to 7. Jags will then take Blackmon at 4.
He was only in control of the draft one year in Miami. Spielman wanted to draft Brees. Wanny overruled him and took Fletcher. Spielman wanted to take Anquan Boldin and even had him on the phone, but Wanny overruled him and took Eddie Moore. Spielman was ready to trade for Hasselbeck but had to clear it with Wanny, who hemmed and hawed until Seattle jumped in and got him. IMO, Spielman isn't as dumb as a lot of Miami fans make him out to be. We'd be better off with Aquafin running our drafts than we were with Wanny.
It doesnt take a genius to get good picks when you are drafting high every year . At least Speilman uses his high picks on skill postions and offense
Phfffft. We already did the Speilman thing. He recent "draft savyness" was not in his playbook when he was in Miami. No Thanks.
