So what exactly does Marty Hurney do?

Gregory was let go in 2018.

Yep.  Morrow is the one really doing the grunt of the scouting.  Hurney & him are tight and I imagine is the trusted scout.  Completely assumptions but I think Morrow's involvement is probably important to Hurney's success & failures.

Being "tight with Hurney" may not matter so much as being "tight with Matt Rhule" these days.

Pat Stewart only got here this year and has less experience than Morrow, but he's being talked about as the next GM. Morrow isn't.

We’d draft Isaiah Simmons and John Ross in the first. Few huddlers knew who Jeremy Chinn was prior to the draft.

We knew who Chinn was but probably didn't think he would be there. I had him going mid to late 2nd  and he was my sleeper pick of the draft. I was ecstatic when he was selected. I must say I was shocked we actually selected a safety.

Yeah that's not what I'm speaking to, you're not picking up what I'm putting down.  I'm referring to the idea that Hurney isn't and hasn't been a one man show. 

Expect a scouting dept. transition along with Hurney when he's "demoted"

Albert Breer as well. I don't think he will be GM, but he will stick around in there somewhere

He needs to be expelled and the scouting department rebuilt. McD took some good front office people with him to Buffalo and it's paying dividends. We need a fresh face and new people. Good people.

Hurney decides who's in the Scouting department.

That, plus a lot of Hurney's biggest mistakes have been times when he ignored the scouting department and went on a hunch of his own.

    • Yeah, that fits with our current HC and his nonsense. IDGAF about the religiosity BS if it isn't rooted in some sort of scammy nonsense(see Rhule, Matt). Canales does smell like that kind of guy.
    • I think Bryce is here because of Morgan and Tepper. Morgan took the job under the condition that Bryce was the guy.  If than was the genius that he's been made out to be after this offseason, then nothing with Bryce, Dalton and Plummer makes any sense unless it was being directed from elsewhere. Tepper has also made it known publicly that he was throught the building giving his opinion vocally even though he's backed out of day to day operations, which is another way of saying, listen to what I'm saying or else.  Dalton was washed after last year. In no world did it make any sense to give him a 1 year contract, much less a 2 year. And Plummer, he was so bad last year he didn't belong anywhere near a football field again but we brought him back one more time. Then we bring in Hooker and White and let the trade deadline go by with QB play that is not only abysmal, but that actually below backup level in many statistical categories.  The only logical conclusion I can draw is Bryce was protected this season from any competition at all and Dalton was kept to be backup because he could never be a threat based on last year's play, which was confirmed by this year's play.  Everything that has been done from the trade, drafting Bryce, Mingo, Brooks, Sanders, Lewis, Corbitt, Hunt, Moton extension, Mitchell, Etienne, XL, TMac, all of it, has been to reinforce, double, triple, quadruple down on a guy who's first year performance, if judged in a vacuum, would have gotten him cut from most NFL squads based on mechanics alone.  Frank saw it and it's why he was fired. He didn't want him and didn't even try to build a game plan around him. Canales can't build a game plan around him. Defenses stack 8 or 9 in the box and dare him to throw and Sunday is what we got.  This is Tepper's ego in full force. It's the only true explanation for what we've seen the past 3 years. This is a man who refuses to admit he was wrong. 
    • Small sample size since I'm pretty sure this is from this year. Burrow wasn't looking phenomenal in his only full game but I'm sure would have bounced back.
