Re: Step right up! Chance to dunk Vinny Cerrato for charity!
NFL.com news: Cerrato: Redskins almost drafted LeSean McCoy
I just love how Vinny excuses his **** ups by throwing other people under the bus. "Oh...I didn't get this guy because a position coach didn't want him".
Just like when he tried to validate the Haynesworth signing by saying former Titan's coach Sherman Smith ok'd him.
Quote:
“I think we talked to a lot of people, plus Sherman Smith had been on the Tennessee staff for a number of years – he knew Albert very well,” Cerrato said.
On a follow up question about Smith’s involvement, Cerrato said: “We had first-hand information on Albert, [knew] everything about the guy because Sherman was there from the time Albert got there.”
Smith is now the running backs coach in Seattle and in a phone interview today said it’s “ridiculous” that his opinion carried that much weight.
“They wouldn’t give a guy a $100 million contract based only on what I said,” Smith said. “I told them exactly about our experience in Tennessee and said you guys make the decision.”
Smith said his advice in the staff meeting was “buyer beware,” because of Haynesworth’s problems in Tennessee.
