I’ll have to find the clip, but Andy was talking about Veach’s keen eye for talent when he was excited about Mahomes an entire year before he was draft eligible.
Andy mentioned that Veach was also excited about Carson Wentz some time before he was draft eligible, but obviously Wentz wasn’t attainable (fortunately lead us to Pat!). Veach is 40 years old guys. That’s it. Andy obviously won’t be here forever, but I have full confidence in Brett Veach having the responsibility to find not only Andy’s successor, but also Patrick’s (when that time comes). I feel an incredible amount of comfort with him deciding those 2 key decisions for our future. |

I’ll be very honest here. Veach’s moves paid off early at first but over time some have turned to duds.
I don’t give a shit what Frank Clark is now. He gave us a record 5 sacks in the playoffs and was one of the top reasons we won the SB. He’s turned to shit now but the contract and trade was worth it bc we got a SB out of it. Honey Badger is one of the best FA’s we’ve had in years. His first draft was a disaster. Yikes. 2019 was better but underwhelming. 2020 seems pretty good aside from Clyde right now. Sneed looks great but Niang and Gay are still TBD. This years draft was his best IMO. I think Creed and Smith are legit 2nd contract guys with pro bowl upside. Bolton looks a lot better than I thought. Not crowning him but he looks like he belongs. Add to the fact that we basically got those guys and Orlando Brown Jr in a draft trade. Probably a B- right now from me. The contract side of the job is what really stands out. |

Say what you want about the immediate payoff, but 2018 and 2019 are really hurting us right now.

I don't think he's the best GM in the NFL but I don't think he's the worst either. He still hasn't drafted an elite talent (outside of possibly Sneed) although some players from the 21 draft could develop into studs (Smith looks like a great pick). The best players on this team are still players drafted by Dorsey.
Strengths: - aggressive nature in targeting deficiencies (this can also be a weakness) - managing the cap Weaknesses: - drafts have been pretty mediocre - gives up picks for players and prefers to trade up in the draft leaving us with fewer picks and fewer chances at one of them turning out to be a stud |

So I'm just gonna point to everything I said on page 1 of this bad boy.
His job is only now starting to get difficult. We'll see how he does... |
