I don't think we'll be seeing any trades like that anytime soon. Now that we have Scot McCloughon running the personnel big trades like that will be limited, unless truly necessary. IMO.

I see us being more of a "picking up lots of unheard of free agents for more competition and stuff" team, instead of the usual "put all our eggs in one basket with a major trade" type team.

Then once we've compiled a decent roster (meaning upgrades at almost every position) they'll start focusing on individual players and positions.

I've always said this, they'd seriously have to think about it. Not saying they do it though.

He's going to Tampa. No question about it.

Poor Bruce. That sounds a lot like something Smithers would do.

The guy is probably right if he's only walking it's not that bad but if he's trying to move faster there's a problem, but I'm sure he's looking to train RGIII.

i'm just making excuses, but it would seem like he either would be trying to be more aware of his feet, or getting out of the mindset of relying on his feet. overall, who cares, it's like a slip 'n slide, if it works you're a genius, if it doesn't you're an idiot.

From the sound of things, we should not pity Bruce. Descriptions of Bruce seem to indicate that he takes pride in being Smithers.

Anything is possible in today's NFL. Highly unlikely, but then again, last year I thought Dallas would suck with the worst D in the history of the NFL, I thought Romo was done, and I thought Garrett was out of the NFL by this time -- but they turned it around. I'll be rooting for Griffin, but my gut tells me we'll need to draft another QB next year.

[quote=NC_Skins;1107656]I believe about 3/4ths of that interview. I do believe the part about Snyder enabling Griffin and having him go into the coaches office about plays that are unacceptable. That isn't some shit a coach makes up for no reason. In fact, he was very respectable about Robert in the interview.

The McNabb trade? Not sure I buy that, but SS has said that often times Bruce would come up to somebody and say that "you can do what you like, but Mr. Snyder strongly feels that..." statements. Could it have happened? Probably so, but more likely a piss poor move that blew up in Mike's face. The one thing that makes me believe Mike more than Dan is Mike's history with trading. When you look back, he didn't give up a bunch of picks for players. It wasn't his thing, and for it all of a sudden to start at the Skins? I do believe Dan was so enamored with Griff that he and Bruce talked Mike into that disaster of a trade.[/quote]

Yeah, it's often not Bruce that says that. It's other in the organization. Others who are team execs, but not really football execs. Would probably be easier to take if the (then) GM was saying that

As for the McNabb deal what I'd always heard and believe mentioned is that Bruce got wind of the opportunity to acquire McNabb (I think during the combines) approached both Snyder and Shanahan about it. Snyder loved the idea and Mike Shanahan did not. Kyle especially did not

Re: Next years QB
 

[quote=Ruhskins;1107628]Bingo.

Mike Shanahan did his share in continuing to f*ck this franchise over. Can't believe some people here believe everything he says or act like he's a f*cking victim. He can go to hell for all I care.[/quote]

Both Shanahan and Snyder were to blame for the mess during Mikey's reign. At first I laid it all at Shanny's feet but Danny continued to meddle, undermining his coach.

Ultimately we will never know who holds most of the responsibility but a muck up that big no one person can cause. It takes a lot of raging egos.
