Anyone from SF is a good hire. That organization has been legit for a decade now.

I just heard Adam Peters is now the Washington Commanders GM....

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

As GM, not head of football operations, Mayhew is going next then

Peters's title will be GM. The status and titles of others in Washington's front office will be discussed in the coming days.[/quote]

Wow impressed by this. Peters sounds like the real deal for sure. Love hearing this. Going to be a fun and eventful offseason.

HTTC!

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

Mayhew is in the Rivera mold - nice guy, unremarkable talent evaluator. I wish him well. So glad to have a legitimate talent evaluator running the show.

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

NICE!!!!!

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

Solid hire. Let's get to work and get a coach.

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

Good info from Albert Breer:

@AlbertBreer
"The Commanders have agreed to terms with Adam Peters to be GM, but the contract isn't signed yet. They'll evaluate current GM Martin Mayhew (who AP worked with in San Francisco), exec Marty Hurney, and the scouting dept. in the coming days.

Some wiggle room on titles ...

... But the idea in naming Peters, a younger exec, GM and not president of football ops could be to create the chance to promote him again down the line if things go well. [B]Either way, Peters will lead the football operation[/B]."

Things are looking better and better

And numerous playoff runs where we won 5-8 to end the season only to get bounced in the first round in noncompetitive games!

Sorry, this is supposed to be a happy thread. Bring back the glory days Mr. Peters!

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

There is no chance he would have come to DC with Dan as the Owner.. Harris is already making big moves

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

With all the moves happening landing one of the top GM talents is a big step towards being a big boy franchise.

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

Now go vet Vrabel.

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations

Yes!!!!

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

Vrabel would make things interesting.

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

Man I just legit can't believe we managed to hire the #1 ranked talent evaluator on the market this offseason. This guy turned down interviews with multiple franchises - it was up to him where he wanted to work. Just look at these quotes:

[quote]
“I think that if you’re a team looking this year, to put it bluntly, you would be dumb to look anywhere else,” an NFL agent said as part of The Athletic’s annual agent survey. “I think he is the best in the business.”

....

Agents also voted Peters among the league’s talent evaluators and front-office leaders they trust the most, rare mentions for non-general managers. He tied for first in the “Future GM to Watch” category.

[/quote]

This is a guy who has legitimate credentials. Not just a trusted name amongst people who work in the industry, a guy tied for #1 on a survey about future GM's to watch. It's one thing to be praised by the media, it's another thing to be praised by your peers. We always say it but it feels different this time around. Can't wait to see how he shapes the staff.

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

Always hard to judge GM hires IMO, but I like that we landed a rather young man, not an aging flashy shiny name that every casual fan knows, coming from an excellent organisation, and like Mooby said, who likely had other options.
If we can land a good HC, we'll know the regime change has been acknowledged across the league.

(Yeah I'm still lurking around, just a crazy busy year, and a season that felt like 17 pre-seasons games, hard to be really engaged, just watching games)

You want him back just so you'll look kinder and gentler in comparison.

Seriously, SmootSmack was great. He will definitely tell it like it is.

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

Listening to the 49ers fan base lose their shit over the Peters hiring is very enjoyable.

Often overlooked, the 9ers fans are insufferable.

We would be too if we had a team like theirs. Maybe we will soon.

Re: Welcome Adam Peters
 

Has the team or AP’s agent/PR announced the hire yet? (I don’t see it.) Anyone just a touch nervous that there’s a sticking point in the deal?

Probably working out details of the contract and whatnot.

Re: Adam Peters Hired as New Head of Football Operations
 

Watch Keim's podcast about this hire. Hard to not be excited about this hire.
