We need a new scouting philosphy and if eric de costa has been responsible for the busts we've been drafting i'd let him venture for another GM job.
It's bigger than just drafting, player development is lacking as well.
They aren't developing a lot of these younger players and the few that do develop or show potential it's at the end of their rookie year on a contract year.
It's consistent McPhee had excellent Rookie year then some injuries year 2 before he was moved between LB and DE for 2 years playing less. Breaks out year 4 gone.
Same thing with Kruger moved back & forth without a purpose, gaining and losing weight.
Elam should have never been put at FS his rookie year, although ultimately he proved to just be bust regardless.
Lord knows what the WR coach does with the WRs must play Tic-Tac Toe because Outside of veteran WRs we can't teach young WRs or TEs how to run a decent route.
