I think he did just fine. There are some who are, frankly, desperate to find fault, but he's taking on the very difficult task of rebuilding a team that has been very bad now for almost three years. He got some decent returns for what are, frankly, depreciating or marginal assets to most teams for a variety of reasons--and now the rebuild starts with three 1st round picks in a deep draft (or, at worst, four first-rounders in the next two drafts).
