I don't know who made the grand decision to make him (the mastermind of the Trent Richardson trade and several other awful draft decisions) the Senior VP of Player Personnel, but that's the equivalent of hiring the Captain of the Titanic to teach you how to sail a boat. Get rid of the guy.
Yes, there is a systemic issue in drafting that they (at least publicly) have not acknowledged or tried to address...
It's been pretty abysmal; whether viewed through the lens of quality of player or value received in trades.
The fix could be any combination of quality of people, process, experience, org structure, communication across the teams departments etc.
But there is no whisper (or wisp of smoke) that KAM acknowledges an issue, let alone is implementing organizational change to address it.
This is my biggest concern going into the 25 draft; Doing the same thing, the same way, with the same people and expecting a different outcome???
There is a word for that.

I'm sure Kwesi fully knows good and well and probably has been told this behind closed doors that he cannot survive another "Train Wreck" of a draft...

The 34 wins in 3 years while completely revamping a roster in cap hell was kinda nice.
But, that could just be me.

Yup the regular season record has been great, the post-season? Not so much.
And how they have built the roster the last 3 seasons is just not sustainable.
What a train wreck we would have if the owners weren't so willing to spend (big) in FA.
I'm done with my rant and raving...

Coaching factors more into the wins. It's why KOC has himself a 5-yr extension and Kwesi is still waiting for one.

Ok.
Think about that for a second.
It’ll come to you.
