lol, no one else knew.

Well, 29 other GMs knew enough not to tender an offersheet, so, there's that part of it.

Remember that time Feaster traded a 6th rounder for a guy who retired just weeks later?

Or the time when Shane O'Brien, on his, what, 6th team, didn't even make it 12 months on the roster before being bought out?

I really don't understand where this need to defend Feaster is coming from.

A tally of good moves to bad is heavily in weighted on the 'bad moves' side.

Most of the arguments here seem to based on saying the bad weren't as bad as some believe, but there is precious little space devoted to 'the good' of his tenure. That in and of itself says a lot.

Edit: Guy was awful. He's gone. Flames are better and the organization has moved on. Sometimes you have to reach rock bottom before you can honestly appraise where you are, and for that, Feaster was integral in the organization beginning to move in the right direction.
