Of the critisism, one that I disagree with his the Jankowski pick. (a) it is far too early to write him off, I believe he is the same age as Monahan, (b) its the scout that made the pick, not him.... this wasn't Feaster's call.
Can we put this it was the scout not the GM thing to bed? The GM is responsible for everything the team does. If he chooses not to overrule his scouts that's still a choice. He's responsible for the scouts, the broad draft criteria and actually making the pick. I have no problem if he delegates to his staff but the buck still stops with him. History will judge that he is a good or bad drafter regardless how he went about it
