This could be true if the WR's mistakes were talent, not coach. Watch the video and you'll see you just trying to beat up on the GM is pointless and careless. It's explained very well that coaching is the problem.
Hardly.
You fail to factor in that the problem may be multi-faceted. The players may have physical talent, but are not executing, perhaps because the coaching is bad AND the players are too dense or unmotivated to pick up their assignments.
Perhaps you don't think Vrable is a good coach, and maybe his isn't. But it is obvious, even to me, that Watkins has not grasped his assignments. Further, I have seen Lazard give up on plays and not look for the ball on numerous occasions. He is hardly a #1 receiver, either physically, mentally, or psychologically.
Moreover, physical talent without football smarts is useless.
IIRC, the Packers are at or near the bottom of Wonderlic test scores, and that is by the choice/de-emphasis of the GM.
Did Rich Bisaccia all of a sudden become a bad special teams coach, because the Packers drop punts, still commit too many penalties, and have porous PAT/FG blocking? I don't think so.
What I am trying to assert is that perhaps we should not be blaming the chefs when the groceries are of poor quality.
