Honestly it’s hard to argue that Monti isn’t worse than both Keim and Graves. We’re entering season five of his leadership with zero hope and maybe two blue chip players — zero of whom he drafted.

We tanked for MHJ and he may not be a top 40 wide receiver.
It's funny MHJ was good in college. He has the pedigree. No one is saying he's slacking in training, etc. You have to wonder if we trade him, and he gets better coaches, would he blow up elsewhere? Plus he had Kyler, and whoever, throwing to him. Although Michael Wilson seems to do well when he gets out there.

I believe MHJ will break out this year due to which ever TALLER QB is throwing the ball.
Heads up MLF, MHJ does not like going over the middle. He short arms it and appears to have the KM turtle complex. Stay with the deep ball or back shoulder. Let him clear out whichever side he's on and go to Love in the flat.
And if for some reason, he's injured and standing on the sideline...HE SHOULD NEVER BE STANDING THERE IN WHAT APPEARS TO BE A ONESIE!!

I wont blame the coaches for Marvin Harrison. All his problems in the NFL were present in college. He wasn't a Jamar Chase level prospect like Malik Nabers. He was a good prospect that can still blow up, but he was overhyped.

Here are 2 short pre-draft film breakdowns.

and a longer video about MHJ's catching technique issues in college.

I don't think Monti is the worst GM. I also wouldn't put him up there in the top GMs in the league. I think he's average so far. You can have an average GM, if you have really good coaches. Really good coaches can use players to their strengths, develop guys, etc. Bidwill has had some difficulty getting the right guys into these jobs. On the plus side, Bidwill realizes when it's not working and pulls the plug on the bad choices instead of sticking with them for ego reasons. I just hope he's going to hit on the set up in the organization. You get that right, they start picking the right guys, coaches start utilizing and developing those guys, and there's the synergy there. Arizona fans deserve some good years of football.
When so many teams make the playoffs with better rosters than Monti has been able to assemble, it is laughable to call him average. The very tippy-top best you can say is he is below average. I would add that he's bang awful.
