I don't know where I have him on my list just yet, but I know I have him in the top 4-5. As to the Boller thing, I guess I give him a little more latitude there. A 1st round QB gets 3 years, IMO. After the 3rd year, you make your decision on him and move forward if he's not the answer. Well - Billick benched Bollers ass after 3 years, did he not? He got his rookie year, his sophomore slump and then his year 3, do or die season. He died - Billick booted him to the bench. What's the problem with that? Kyle Boller was the backup in Baltimore his last 2 seasons there. Wouldn't we all want Geno to get 3 seasons? Or Wilson? Or Barkley or Bray or whoever we draft high? I'm not sure I see much to kill Billick on with Boller, he did what any of us would ask our GM/Coach to do of a highly touted QB prospect - give him his shot and cut bait if he doesn't hack it.

Yeah, but how much of that was Billick and how much of that was Ozzie Newsome? They haven't exactly gone to heck since Billick left.

If you, like Deez, believes that his success as an OC won't translate to HC - so be it. If, however, you want to argue that his success as an OC was some sort of mirage fueled by elite talent...well then you're just an idiot that hasn't done his homework. Billick was a very very good OC in Minnesota.

Billick will take a risk, and not a Scooter Pioli mid round trade up to draft a brokedick TE while Jimmy Graham is still on the board type risk either. An actual go get the QB high gamble and hope for the best risk |

I just wonder about Billicks offense when he went to Baltimore.

I'm more willing to give billick credit for that defense, or at least knowing not to **** up an elite unit at the least. |
