I'm undecided. For the most part I thought he did a good job finding talent. He got burned for the Hutch situation but...John Morgan made a pretty good argument for what he was trying to do on Field Gulls the other day. I think that decision is given way more importance by Seahawks fans that it should...losing one guard doesn't sink a goddamned franchise.
It really depends on where the Seahawks go from here. If they hire Holmgren as GM, I expect he'll focus on the offense and draft a bunch of players, some of which will pan out and some of which will be complete knuckleheads. And the defense will die a slow, painful death. And I'll wish Ruskell was still around.
I want a fresh start. It doesn't have to be a new face...just a new face for the franchise. We know what Holmgren can do, we know what Ruskell can do, and they both got fired [more or less] from being a GM as a result. Go find someone who can get us a Super Bowl win.
