So it seems like you’re dead set on whomever keeps hurney as a gm doesn’t know what they’re doing.....I mean jr fine but if tepper keeps him he doesn’t know what he’s doing, if *insert nfl owner* hires him they don’t know what they’re doing 

I think when the dust settles in April you will not see Hurney in that position.

So if Hurney sucks cause no one would hire him after he was fired, does that also mean Ron Rivera, Mike Shula, and Dave Gettleman are great at their jobs?  I mean hey, they were all hired immediately elsewhere after we fired them...they must be pretty good!  Is that how it works?

Great no, competent, absolutely

There are actually several NFL owners out there who don't know what they're doing. Tapper may or may not be one of them. We don't know yet.

Funny thing is though that even the ones who everybody acknowledges don't know what they're doing weren't interested in Marty.

the second part is a separate discussion from his draft choices  

Not really. Teams build through the draft and drafting players who fit your scheme and end up being good players is critical to managing the cap. 

Hurney has hit some home runs in the draft, no doubt about it. But actually using the draft to build the team has been less than adequate IMO.

Except Ron was hired immediately after we fired him.  So by ur logicz, he's actually a good coach.

I would say he is a good coach in the fact that he knows how to establish a culture and control a roster of a team.  Something that Washington was in dire need of.  The x and o part of it has passed him by IMO.

If they knew what they’re were doing they wouldn’t  have the need for a gm? Correct 
 

because the owners who do know what they’re doing usually don’t go gm hunting for long periods of time

I'm starting to sense that you've lost track of your own spin :thinking:

So no.

Gotcha..move those goalposts, buddy.  "He sucks if he doesn't get hired by another organization.  Oh what he did?  Well no, not that organization obviously!".

Did Gettleman bringing Shula to the Giants count then?  I know you're quite the fan of him to say the least, so is Shula therefore a good offensive coordinator?

You can’t just rely on draft picks to fill the roster, after round 1 the percentage to hit in a pick drops drastically 

I think the patriots a couple seasons ago had a draft where they only retained 1 player from it, and Bill is regarded as a top gm in most nfl circles

      Panthers HC Dave Canales hints at adding more weapons for QB Bryce Young

      By strato · Posted

      I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner.

      2025 Draft Re-Grades (Or, One Idiot Doubles Down)

      By Raskle · Posted

      How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.

      Who was the better HC - Rivera or McDermott?

      By Basbear · Posted

      I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
