You may not have confidence in KS and AB.

That is not a concern of theirs. They will go about their jobs as professionals.

They will put forth their best efforts to make the right decisions.

We will know the results when games are played.


History tells us that we don't have to wait for the games to be played if AB is running the show. You know that saying about falling into a bucket of crap and coming out with a new hat? He is the exact opposite of that. Berry fell into a situation where we were on the cusp of something great and took us to 3-14. That is an epic failure for a gm.

His drafts are not as bad as people want to think.

I don't believe that Berry alone is responsible for the record.

In addition the team has been to two playoffs in four years.

We are 5 years into his reign. We are 3-14 with the worst qb room in the league. Our best player is demanding a trade because he sees no hope for winning in the foreseeable future. AB's best free agent picks are no longer on the team. I can't understand why anyone would defend him or want him to manage this upcoming draft.
