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!

    • I think his football IQ is well below average. I do not think he can read defenses at all. He is not the long term answer. I'm getting worried about DC. I think he has problems seeing the big picture for each game. Some people can't accept it, but this game is greatly affected by momentum. It's hard to explain but you can just feel his decisions break it at least two or three times a game (I think he is pretty solid when it comes to 4th down decisions). My biggest concern is this. You have seen these coaches time and time again. For some reason you have these coaches that absolutely will not go with what is working. We need a name for these coaches, what is it? If something is working great, they just do not have the intelligence to comprehend that something working is actually good for their team. They cannot understand this. AND REPORTERS NEED TO CALL THIS OUT. Rushing was insane for the past two games...ok let's take half his carries away and have Bryce air it out (look at the attempts he had). The reporters need to freaking ask "((this)) was working, you didn't do ((this)), do you consider that bad coaching? If so, why? If not, why do you defend doing the opposite of what it best?" Anyone knows you keep doing something until they stop it. But you have these coaches that think the are going to pull a fast one on them and do the thing that is not working. Dave is starting to remind me of that guy in the movie Kung Pow. I think his name was Weeblow or something, he had those squeaky shoes when he ran around. The Kung Fu masters trained him wrong as a joke, so he did things to get the crap beat out of him instead of winning the fight. I am going to start calling Dave Canales WEEBLOW if he keeps doing the opposite of what would win. But seriously, if he is going to be that type of coach, I would honestly get rid of him after this season. You 100% do not want a coach with this flaw...they may have one good fluke season but it will be years of terrible teams.
    • I mean the Bronco's only won by 1, but no one there is complaining.
    • A QB who can't consistently throw the ball 20 yards downfield has no business being a starting QB in this league. That is a backup QB who you put in there to manage a game when your starter goes down.
