He never would have drafted an end with short arms like he did this year and this wasn't an all RAS draft. He seems to have gone more for actual football players. Gives me some hope

That, I'm afraid is incorrect. Steichen was coaching as QB coach with Chargers, when Foles and the Eagles won the SB.
