I have no problem with what's been done so far. I am just skeptical of Grier rebuilding this team. I do hope he does a good job at it. I also hope Rosen can prove he can lead this team. Would be nice to use all those pics to build the roster. I am just not sure anyone can prove themselves with the talent on this team right now.
I have more faith in Grier than some. He did add some top quality evaluators, so there is that.
As far as JR proving himself? He doesnt have to prove it to us. He has to prove it to Flores, and Flo isn't going to use the same criteria as the fans or, for that matter, the media.
Obviously, there will be times when Rosen is under immediate pressure, his receivers are covered, and there is nothing to be done except get rid of the ball.
There will also be times where the line holds, and he has some time.
On those occasions, the reads and decisions he makes, as well as the actual throws, will be what matters in the end.
That's why, IMO, the win loss record is not that relevant. If he does the smart things, makes the correct reads, calls the proper protections, etc, within the design of the scheme, what more is there to ask of the man?
If he doesn't do those things, or doesn't quickly progress at them by the end of the season, that's a different matter.
