The fact that we're not better than last year at a single position group is a total failure on his part.

I'm with you on this. I'm too old to have a good memory and may be wrong on this but wasn't Justin Herbert an option when he was drafted? I seem to remember saying "take him, TAKE him, TAKE HIM!!!" only to have him trade that away for multiple draft picks that likely got us nothing.
