If it was just for his 1st round picks I would give him his marching orders!As of right now, if you’d have to grade the 3 first round picks…What would you give Grier?

would have like that thinking regarding a RBI have to wonder if Grier and Co. were thinking, "we have 3 first rounders, let's take a chance on a boom or bust player"...sometimes when teams have multiple picks, they'll go that route hoping to nail a super star that they may miss on later. Whether you agree with that plan is another story.
Grier is very good at some things- managing the cap, acquiring draft picks. That 2020 first round is looking rough, when it should have brought us 3 stalwarts. As far as Igbo, I think Grier screwed the pooch on that one. In my heart, I want to defend the pick and say that the player is only 21, inexperienced, but after being inactive- saying he has NO game day value- I just can't anymore. Sometimes GM's miss, but you blame them less when they pick a guy who was projected in the ball park of where you picked the player. Igbo came out of nowhere.
It’s a silly argument in general. There’s plenty of players within a year or two of him that are playing great. The idea that he’s going to be awful at 22 then miraculously turn it all around at 23 is based on nothing but blind hope.All of the posters that are defending him cite his age and how raw he was coming out of college. My point is, and has always been, if he’s that raw why use a first round pick on him??? I don’t care what anyone says…A first round pick inactive going into his 2nd year? That says bust to me regardless of age or experience at the position. Add in that Austin Jackson hasn’t played all that great and it’s not looking good for Grier. On top of that, Tua isn’t setting the world on fire either.
Obviously, they all deserve more time before a final judgment is made. But to the guys that defend Grier constantly, aren’t you at least a little concerned? I know I definitely am. As of right now, if you’d have to grade the 3 first round picks…What would you give Grier?
Agree. The Inactive is concerning. He has all the tools. He seems to struggle with the mental quickness part. Maybe the light will come on

panic buttoned pushed a while ago. I hope I'm wrong, but looks like they botched this pick. No argument otherwise right now.I am not hitting a panic button now, but I am also wondering how his season will look like down the road. Thoughts?
Grier gets an “F” from me for a lot of reasons. One of them is the entire 2020 draft class. 3 no 1 picks and we didn’t hit on any of them? I know we will give Tua time and let’s leave that aside because we were picking him there even if we put our draft on auto-select. Jackson and Iggy ? Not looking so good. R David = good player. Everyone else = already gone or bad to meh so far. Or didn’t need to be drafted (the LS). Grier sucks ass. We finally have a real coach. Someone tell Ross to get rid of this barnacle of an employee who’s managed to hang on to a job around Davie for 20 years. I’m all in on Flo. I’m all out on Grier. Iggy being inactive and the 2020 draft class as a whole looking rather meh put me over the edge.All of the posters that are defending him cite his age and how raw he was coming out of college.

Grier has done a good job drafting players the past few years but he obviously missed on Iggy. Anytime a first round pick can’t make the active roster when he is not injured has to be a concern. I never liked the pick to begin with because he was a player that had limited experience at the CB position in college and it was stated at the time that he would need time to develop his skills at the NFL level.All of the posters that are defending him cite his age and how raw he was coming out of college.
