I guess that's the difference between our thought processes, I would not judge them (or him) on getting any specific player I wanted, but 2 players of a certain skill set/ability to play a starter role was the "want", and I believe that is realistic enough given the FA crop being as huge as it was.

The offseason is the time to grade the FO for the work they did (well, trades during the season). The season is the time to grade the players and coach. Some of that is the vision to get guys that work well, but most of it is on the players and coach to get on the right page.
