Sporting News Lists 7 GM Candidates, Including Agent89

I know Smitty isn't realistic but the rest of the list is pretty good and in line with what we've been hearing.

Steve Smith, former Panthers wide receiver

What? OK, this is a complete long shot, but not one totally out of the Carolina blue given what John Elway has done and what John Lynch can do.

When it comes to knowledge of the game and its players, Smith has it and has shown it quickly in retirement as an NFL Network analyst. Owner Jerry Richardson has done crazier things ... like firing his GM right before training camp.

He's young, he has history with the team, he's helped put together a strong contender for the AFC South in Tennessee... I wouldn't hate it. 

Tennessee has done a good job of building around Mariota as well. 

Both tackle spots locked up for a long time  (Lewan/Conklin) and addressed both WR spots this offseason as well (Davis/Decker). 

Both positions which we lack greatly in Tennessee has clearly stressed the importance of.

After reading nothing but the small blurb in the article on the subject, he is now my first choice as the future GM and I will be upset if we go another direction.

LOL. 

Seriously, I think it would make for possibly the most interesting story, particularly Gruden. Either one could develop into one of the more dicisively master strokes in all of sports, or the most colossal train wreck. Riverboat Richardson!

    • An odd little vibe I've noticed here of late: some folks are "all or nothing" to an absolutely extreme level when it comes to Bryce. There are, in fact, things Bryce does well. Likewise, there are areas in which he's improved over his time here. He has, on several occasions now, legitimately helped us win games. On the flipside, there have been failures in other areas as well as coaching that we're not in any way his fault.  And finally , it is also genuinely possible that the team may see him as the future, even if we don't. The craziest part, though? It's actually possible that they're right and we're wrong. All of this is true, and more, yet if you accept any of these premises people go from zero to apesh-t in under three seconds 😳 Anything less than total disavowal of Bryce and / or agreement that he's the worst QB of all time and suddenly you're a "stan". Oy 🙄 The reality though?  Bryce is indeed an NFL quarterback. Not a great one, probably backup level good, and I've seen way worse. Now, if you run that statement through your personal Google translator and it comes back with some version of "I want to throw 50 million a year at Bryce for the next 10 years", that's not really my issue it's yours  I don't wanna make him the franchise quarterback, but it's not my call. Win or lose, the team is going to do what they think is best. And as always, if it disagrees with what I think we should do, I'm gonna hope I'm the one who's wrong. Internet clout means nothing. Watching my favorite team win at my favorite sport meas fun 😁
    • I like Icky but he was the wrong tackle to take. Learning run blocking is much easier than learning pass blocking. Cross was pass pro ready. He was the tackle we should have taken without hesitation. 
    • Never saw this angle of the Tyson fight either lol.
