I guess the point iis that if we get a guy that knows talent and pair him with a strong contract/cap guy then we should be putting the team together the right way.

There is no point to comparing the W/L records of Bruce and Vinny. because both of their records were unacceptable. The difference between the two executives is that Bruce does some things well whereas Vinny was completely incompetent as Redskins GM.

For example, I thought that Bruce put a good plan in place for FA last year which he executed well, although the personnel choices could have been better. That plan put us in a position to sign DJax to a bargain contract late in FA. Vinny signed a fat, lazy, selfish DL with a bad reputation to a $100MM FA contract.

Now that we have a true personnel man in place as GM, I'm hoping that Bruce will prove to be a valuable resource in rebuilding the Redskins.

per Mike Jones- safety, and right tackle appear to be priorities

I'm a huge Neild fan, but the dude just can't seem to stay healthy. I hope they hold onto him, but I wouldn't be surprised (or upset) if they cut him.

neild reminds me of that DT we signed from the cowboys 10 or so years ago. big white guy, big beard, good motor, above average but just couldnt stay healthy.

what was that guys name. this is killing me. he got injured for the season, came back and got re-injured in preseason. never heard from him again.

Bruce should stay on the business side, do PR, do charity ( "we're winning off the field!") and keep running the alumni stuff. After watching his press conference at the end of the year, he came across as borderline incompetent.

What ever happened to all of the leaks at Redskins Park? Now that Scot M. has taken over personnel, the media folks don't seem to have a clue what the Skins might be doing in Free Agency or the draft.

I would say above average to good safety before he got bit by the injury bug the last couple years. Id like to see him in the mix for SS.

I look at this as McCloughan allowing the scouts he inherited a chance to sink or swim. SM is not only evaluating the talent visiting the team, but he's also evaluating his staff. I expect big changes made after this upcoming season.
