It's human nature to defend and persist in high profile decisions, even in the face of contradictory evidence. It was interesting watching how uncomfortable Veach appeared stretching to defend his drafting of Moore in that video posted here yesterday. A pick so against chalk, equivalent to a Reid cute horizontal short yardage play call, that it was easy for any amateur to criticize at the time.
These guys are highly successful humans, doing what comes with that territory. They've managed to build a near dynasty by getting by far the most important decision right in the 2017 draft, and for that they get unending gratitude. But we can still acknowledge, without being unthankful or disloyal, that the WR situation is mostly ****ed up for this season, and wonder about the talent evaluation at that particular position if somehow the FO actually believed wbf with Toney and Moore as #1 and #2. I just can't get past how short sighted that seemed, and many of us were saying it preseason and getting shouted down because "2 rings".
