This dude is an abomination. As of today there are only six of Angelo's first- or second-round picks on the roster from the last seven drafts. We already knew he sucked in the early rounds, but his middle round picks have sucked ass lately as well.

This is inexcusable and utterly embarrassing. Teams are constructed and able to maintain competitive through the draft - Angelo has a horrible eye for talent while Lovie can't develop or coach to save his life.

Get these clowns the f!@# outta here!!!

I'm a real big Angelo fan. But lately it seems he's totally checked out. Our dafts have been horrendous. Period.

here's NE's history:

2002: None on roster (6 picks)
2003: 2 on Roster (10 picks)
2004: 1 on Roster ( 8 picks)
2005: 2 on Roster (7 picks)
2006: 1 on Roster (10 picks)
2007: 1 on Roster ( 9 picks)
2008: 4 on Roster ( 7 picks)
2009: 10 on Roster (12 picks)


21 of 69 still on Roster

Success rate:

NE : 30.4% chance of roster spot
CHI: 26.3% chance of roster spot.

Not drastically below one of the best draft organizations in the game.

I think thats somewhat of a misleading way to look at it. I'd rather compare how many made the roster at the time, not look back 6-8 years to see how many are still on the roster now. For example (just extreme example to show the point) If none of NE picks in 2002 made their roster but all of CHI's picks made it but only had 5-6 year careers, that chart would say the teams success rate was equal. I'd like to know how many games started the Bears have out of their draft picks vs the league average and how many pro-bowlers the Bears have had vs the league average as well.

The odds are really stacked against Lovie and Angelo this season. We've got a mediocre team with two teams in the division clearly better while the other is on it's way up. In addition, we've got a brutal schedule , especially in the second half. On top that yet, we've got a new, complicated offensive system that might not hit on all cylinders until halfway through the season or later.

This team is poised to finish under .500, and if they do, the whole coaching staff could be given the boot and Tim Ruskell will step in as the new GM.

Drafting: FAIL
Free Agency: FAIL
Coaching Hires: FAIL
Command of the English language: FAIL

The only GM that has screwed his team worse is Jim Hendry. Lucky for JA you can pretty much just cut terrible contracts.
