Since Shanny had full control, isn't that really all on Shanny?

If memory serves Shanny wasnt sold on taking RG but the owner fell in love and the rest is history.

I thought at the time the Skins didnt have choice but to make a move to get RG. Its a QB league and the Skins needed one badly. Who could have predicted that RG and his Dad were going decide that he had to become a pocket passer at the expense of everything and everyone else.

Mike agreed to that trade very reluctantly

Let me take a wild guess and say that Kyle wanted no part of it?


So you telling me it was lil Danny pushing Mike on that trade?

Kyle wanted Manning and Tannehill/Foles to develop behind him

Mike liked Cousins

Both liked RG3 but did not want to mortgage so much for him

People in the organization pushed Snyder hard (and he in turn pushed Shanny) on the idea that RG3 would be great for the team on the field...but perhaps more importantly off the field

But how many times have I told you there are non-football people in the organization with way too much influence over what football decisions the team makes

This is better than it's been, but it's still a major, major issue

Well is their any chance after this cluster f$ck that Snyder finally realizes these non football folks need to shut the eff up or are fired?

Every time Snyder gets rid of friends, he just replaces them with other friends

He needs to hire people that basically don't like him and don't care what he thinks. Guys like, oh I don't know, Marty Schottenheimer

LOL. Schar is definitely an influential guy. More so marketing and biz ops guys

Ok so my memory wasnt too far off. The bottom line is that Shanny wasnt sold on RG.

I guess mike would have rather stayed put and drafted tannehill?

Sucks the owner is still kinda making the draft decisions, especially if bruce was suspect of rg3 all along.

If I remember correctly Shanny came out after the draft and said he was going to take Russell Wilson with the pick he took Cousins with had he been there, so we would have taken Wilson at some point.

Edit: Late as f.

Also still remains as true as ever: Eff Dan Snyder.
