I have been at odds with Berry over his time in Cleveland.
Obviously the Watson trade was horrible.
His draft record before last year was hit on some; lost on others.
His strength has been trades. And last year he made a whopper. The Hunter trade down probably saved his job. He netted Mason Graham and Q.
Then he hit big on Carson and Fannin. Hell if Sanders even becomes a solid backup he would be worth a 5th rounder. If he becomes a good starter it is a major score.
If Andrew Berry repeats this year and next with sound productive players we have us a great young GM.
No matter your job you hope to get better at what you do with experience. Berry was the youngest GM hired in NFL history and he is a black man.
He has broken barriers.
I really hope he has a great draft and many more to come.
I concur with your post Bone. I don't know how much he had to do with the Watson trade but he is the GM and he is culpable no matter. Those 3 #1's we lost were brutal. His last draft was awesome and if we have another one like that this year with Shedeur just playing decent, we can contend for the division IMO. I've stated in the past I like AB and I'm glad he didn't get fired. I felt the same about KS but it seemed a change at HC was warranted. We'll know in a week our new players and how we did at least on paper.
Agreed, the Watson trade is his albatross, and yes the trade with JAX was big, a great draft last year - Gabriel, hopefully he is a legit GM, we will find out soon!
