Plenty of other candidates for Houston to pick from.
I would have thought that teams would be looking to see what an individual had contributed to his team rather than the team's results with an injury list half a mile long? I know that doesnt fit in with the 'lets rubbish the team' concept which seems quite popular at the moment but I think you will find it has support.
Not trashing the team. At all.
But there are better front office "trees" than this one. Peters has a history prior to us, and for that, maybe the Elway "tree" has its attraction. But his move here was as a favor to Lynch, was it not?
Our personnel department is still a work in progress. I don't think it shows up on the potential GM scorecard enough to warrant concern with respect to Peters, yet.
As to Shanny having his staff raided per Ninerjok above, apples and oranges. Shanny has the potential to be a coaching talent incubator for years to come and that's already started.
