During an NFL Combine interview with Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio, George Paton said “I’m sure there’s a draft pick or two that I wish we could reconsider, or a maybe free agent signing. I really don’t want to mention them because I have to deal with the players.”
I will admit it initially floored me that Paton was so candid about his first year. It should be obvious no general manager is going to pitch strikeouts with every move, but it was still refreshing to hear such honesty. It also raises immediate questions about what moves Paton alluded to.
