Who for GM

KLHJ2 · 10-22-2009, 05:32 PM

I think that the job should go to me and I would be willing to accept it as long as my demands are met.

SFREDSKIN · 10-22-2009, 05:37 PM

Eric DeCosta Ravens

Brian Gaines Miami

Charley Casserly

Why does anyone think he is going to hire a GM? What could possibly make us think that?

SBXVII · 10-22-2009, 05:53 PM

^Uh.....Oh yeah.....2-4.

dcweldon · 10-22-2009, 05:57 PM

Why not bring back Charley Casserly. He did great work with us, minus Shuler, but it happens.

Granted, I don't think Danny Boy will be willing to bring him back on the bus.

Round and Round we go people.

He also brings a winners mentality that the Redskins need. You associate winner with Indy. Players respect and listen to him. I would just like to see it but it will not happen. I would like to see him involved with the team one way or another just to change our mentality.

Except he had nothing to do with either at the GM level. Bill Polian built the Colts teams, and Dungy was not the GM in Tampa. He had success as a coach, but he has never shown he has GM ability. I would probably lean toward Chris Polian as well. Does not matter though, Danny has no capacity to learn from any mistake because he never thinks he is wrong.

1) Fire Vinny
2) Snyder gives me all decisions making abilities with the exception of his Madden Franchise. I'm sure that he turns the salary cap off and the Skins are awesome.
3) I cannot be terminated or over ruled in any decision until after my 5th season.
4) No more suing season ticket holders.
5) Access to training camp is free again.
6) First beer is free for all fans attending the game as long as they are wearing officially licensed Redskins Apparrell
7) I get a 5 member cheerleading squad in my luxury box.
8) I get to pick which 5.
9) My wife is banned from my luxury box.
10) I have a personal body guard to protect me from my wife.

Why not shoot for an assistant with one of the best organizations out there. Don't the Pats have an assistant GM or Asst Pres of football Ops? They've been building depth for years. And I'm not sure about the rules but I don't think they can stop you from interviewing someone for a promotion.

...But then again, an assistant at the pats to top dog at the Redskins might just be a DEmotion.

How about Bruce Allen?

Quote:

Bruce Allen is the former General Manager of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League from 2004 to 2008.[1] Prior to his stint with the Buccaneers, he was a Senior Executive with the Oakland Raiders from 1996 to 2003.

I believe the Raiders went to a Super Bowl during this period, and the Buccaneers were not bad during his stint there.

Reposted from my other thread: I've been lookin around online and have come up with these 2 guys. Both are young, up-and-coming execs with the Steelers. I'd love to see us build up some stability like the Steelers have through the draft and smart free agent picks. Both these guys were in the running for the KC job (thats where I pulled this from):

1. Ron Hughes (College Scouting Director - Pittsburgh Steelers)

He was the former V.P. Personnel Director of the Detroit Lions and was hired by the Steelers to handle the college scouting duties in 2002. He spent 18 years in Detroit and was credited for helping the Lions compete in the 90’s when the team had Barry Sanders and Herman Moore.

Over the last seven years Hughes has been primarily in charge of building the Steelers drafts and was one of the only people in the organization who championed the cause to move up in the first round of the 2003 draft to grab USC safety Troy Polamalu. The team that made that swap was none other then the Kansas City Chiefs, who used that pick to draft Penn State running back Larry Johnson.

2. Doug Whaley (Pro Personnel Director - Pittsburgh Steelers)

He has worked closely with Hughes, and that might be one of the better personnel teams in all of the NFL. Whaley has spent 11 seasons with the Steelers and according to someone close to the team who spoke with Warpaint Illustrated, he’d like to move up the NFL food chain. However, a year ago he forwarded an e-mail that didn’t exactly warm the hearts of the Steelers and the Commissioners office - it contained immoral photos. So that has been something that has held up his efforts towards obtaining a higher position in the NFL.

Ron Hughes is 66 years old. I wouldn't call him a young, up and comer.
