I think it's tough to assess any of our offensive talent with this scheme and with the weakness of the coaching. I was convinced we need to dump Moncrief after this season and I'm still pretty much there but Venturi made a compelling case on JMV yesterday that we really haven't put him in a situation to see what he's capable of.......I wouldn't support signing him to a big payday but if he and his agent were willing to sign a modest contract...maybe shorter term with performance incentives I wouldn't be opposed. Probably won't happen.....someone will sign him for bigger money and the smart play for him is to take the money and run, but it's really a shame we seem content to squander talent (limited as it may be) because we seem unwilling to fit our scheme to the best fit for the talent we have. Situational football (which Bellicheat excels at) vs. We just do what we do (which Clappy mcWoodchopper fails at).
