Which is well and good...but the Eagles put together some nice signings and the Redskins used to sign and sign and sign.ITS is over the top homerism. No doubt. That said, Schneider and Carroll have killed the draft and free agency since coming to Seattle.No kidding. This is the same guy who said that John Schneider was THE best GM in football the last 3 years. He brings ridiculous to a whole new level.
I don't have the numbers at hand, but I'm willing to guess that they're directly responsible for adding more pro-bowl and all pro talent to the roster in the past three years than any other coach/GM tandem in the NFL.
FA and draft "grades" don't really make a GM great.
Schneider is doing a heck of a job...no doubt about that.
But calling him the best without advancing even to the NFC title game at this point seems a bit premature.
Jerry Reese, Ozzie Newsome, Ted Thompson, Kraft/Belichick...have to put them up there right now (Colbert of the Steelers too).
Teams that have been at or near the top...won titles...and stayed at or near the top for several years now.
