Why moving on from Bruce Allen this year is pivotal to the future of the franchise.

Yes that Alex Smith lol, I'm actually in favor of it if we can't get a more qualified GM

Not trying to be a jerk, but would make you think Alex Smith is qualified to do that position?

Extremely intelligent dude, obviously we know how talented he was as a player and he is very well respected by everyone he's worked for. I don't think its a far fetch that Smith becomes the GM or in some kind of role in the front office and then brings Eric Bieniemy in as HC.

Alex Smith would hands down be just another yes man for Snyder and dan would have even more influence than he already does. It would be a soul crushing choice

I am holding out hope for Lou Riddick but I don't think he leaves ESPN for the skins job.

I'm pretty sure the new setup is going to be Eric Schaffer as Team President and Kyle Smith as GM.

And honestly, I'd be fine with that.

An interesting subplot is how Trent Williams reacts once Bruce Allen is gone. Would he be open to remaining a Redskin?

He was complimentary of Dan Snyder's handling of his medical scare, getting him to specialists and giving use of the plane, etc. I think Trent's primary motivation at this point is probably getting to a winning team willing to put more guarantees into his contract. So I'm guessing he'll still want out even with Bruce gone. But I wonder how he'd react if Bruce is gone, and the new regime offers more guaranteed money.

If I were him I'd want to get to a contender, I wouldn't want to spend the twilight of my career with a rebuilding program starting from scratch with new leadership and new coaches. But it's still an interesting angle to all of this.

Of course, Bruce needs to actually be canned first.

Something tells me he will stay if/when Bruce is gone

I think it'd be best for Trent to get a fresh start somewhere else. He pretty much trashed the medical staff, plus he's an older player that isn't durable and took a year off. Everything says time to move on for both sides. See if you can get 2nd rounder for him.

The best moves to restore this franchise would be to trade TW, Kerrigan, Richardson, Norman & Quinn for picks. While everyone is debating on whether to take Young or Thomas i would trade down and truly build through the draft. It would be better for the team overall and long term to gain as many draft picks as possible 12 or more picks would be great. Fire Bruce get a real GM and a discipline HC that will hold everyone accountable. I like Louis Riddick and Mike Tomlin personally build around Haskins, Guice, McLaurin, Sims, Harmon, Sweat and other young players on defense.

Since when does being qualified mean anything? I mean just look at our President.

Bruce Allen is officially the worst longest-tenured GM who has been with the same team since 2010 (in all 4 major leagues).

24 GM's total, only 3 with losing records.

Bruce Allen, Redskins, .397 winning percentage, 2 playoff appearances no wins
Dayton Moore, Kansas City Royals, .468 winning percentage, 1 World Series title (2015)
Duke Tobin, Cincinnati Bengals, .490 winning percentage, 5 consecutive playoff berths (2011-2015)
