Seeing Jakobi Meyers playing well for the raiders this year got me thinking of what recent moves are questionable looking back at the past five years. Hoping we can discuss/grade Belichick as our GM over the last few years when it comes to free agency.
Players that have performed well for other teams and should have kept: Joe Thuney, Shaq Mason, Jakobi Meyers, Johnnu Smith, Brandon Bolden? (this one is complicated, maybe more a discussion around coaching rather than GM). And the most obvious of all Tom Brady.
Which ones did we retain or brought in that moved the needle. I can only think of Judon really.
PS. if we believe the reports that Belichick wanted to replace Tom with Jimy G at the time this kinda ends the conversation about how crap he is as GM, but that was all speculation
The fact that Jonnu Smith is excelling with another team is an indictment of our coaching more than anything else. We couldn’t get squat out of the guy but here he is doing really well the minute he gets out of town.
