Who follows Rivera to DC?

Actually took longer for someone to mention Marty than I thought it would. Figured that might be the first response 

I think it's a possibility. Hurney is from Wheaton, MD and started his career with the Redskins. He has a rapport with Rivera, and may be on the hot seat with the new owner in Carolina. If he was smart, I think it would be in his best interest to move to DC and TAKE the job before he NEEDS a job.

It doesn't matter as long as Hurney is the GM.  I'm sure we will do just fine with the #7 pick without him.

Cant see either Blackburn Or Sam Mills III going anywhere.

Eh. Our ST looked like dildos this year. Maybe it's just not his bailiwick, and he'd excel in coaching another area. But between the round robin at returner and the two touchdowns his unit gave up to Indy, I certainly wouldn't get all misty eyed if he was shown the door.

Yeah, I can't hold Blackburn accountable for one bad game where bad tackling was the main culprit.  As least he's shown some imagination on STs with the fake punts and such.

The #7 pick isnt what im worried about

 

Teams aren't built successfully by just hitting your 1st round pick

Maybe Cam, Luke, Olsen, and the whole lot.

maybe we should trade them the old.

Sam Mills III is gonna be an interesting one.

There's the sentimental connection with his father. That's why Richardson asked Rivera to give him a place on staff.

Tepper never met his dad, and he doesn't strike anybody as an especially sentimental guy anyway.

I'd still like to see Mills stay aboard in some capacity (maybe back to his original job) but admittedly that's more of an emotional take than a practical one.

Exactly.  It's no secret his record after the 1st round is, uh...suspect?  I'm sure we can replace Hurney and at least get the same results, but hopefully a heck of a lot better while simultaneously turning over the scouting department.

[Cuttinedge]

Washington and Richard Rogers for sure.  The only reason Rogers had a job was because of Ron. Dude has no talent for coaching any dept. 

And I don’t understand why everyone thinks Washington is a great Dline coach ours has been trash for several years now  it ain’t like he developed anyone besides maybe Addison. Butler?? 

Matsko also his dept probably weakest of the Bunch and thats saying a lot

I'd have to imagine most or all of those guys are updating their resumès right now.

Yes 

But I want every fingerprint from the old regime gone.

Yes Hurney was a bulk of the problem with the drafts

But the scouting dept had their problems too

Our ST as a whole has been much improved since he took over. 

The one bad game against Indy doesn't negate all the positive that he has brought. Dude knows STs in and out.
