You have the capologist who handles the cap, HR issues are probably handled by him, Ron and management. What else is there for him to do? If/when he leaves, we'll be back to average picks. Ron must be blind.

You just listed all the reasons he should be vp of player personnel. Oh wait thats what he is. You also listed the things he hasnt done that a skilled GM has to be able to manage. Can Kyle be that skilled GM? Maybe, even probably, but whenever and wherever he becomes a GM at he won't be doing the things he is exceptionally qualified for.

Think about hiring a head coach. When a defensive mastermind becomes head coach he has to learn the concept of putting the whole team together. Some top notch defensive coordinators make the transition some don't. But even those who do are no handling the day to day of what they excelled at.

Kyle may be an excellent GM someday, maybe with the Redskins, but RR probably knows better then any of us do just how close or far away Kyle is to making that leap.
