Dan Morgan interviewed for Steelers GM job

This isn't a lateral move.  It's the final step in a career track the guy has been chasing with one of the most stable and successful franchises in history.  It's a complete no brainer for him.

There are 32 of these jobs in the world.  Of course you take the interview.

So many sensitive homers here lol. The same folks who will give Fitterer a pass for Darnold and the FA olinemen we brought in bc he was hired to be Rhule's glorified errand boy. We could have hired someone like Morgan for the role from the jump and not given Matt "one year of NFL experience" Rhule full control.

He’s interviewing for a chance to run the show in Pittsburgh of all places. He’d be a fool not to….look at it as a good sign that he’s garnering outside interest it means we have talent in the front office. The only question is will Rhule get out of the way so the talent can do it’s job.

Tepper should have fixed this, and as fans we have a long, long season coming up!

Obviously if Tepper can't magically make assistant GMs not interested in GM jobs he's a failure as an owner.  He should make everyone so happy that they turn down promotions.

Watching the actual talent get plucked from this organization has become a near annual ritual. Amazing the talent we've had here and let walk to retain fuging bums.

 

 

Who are the 4 or 5 most notable losses?

Have there been off-setting hires that are deserving of  your acknowledgment?

The whole Brandon Beane thing is still really disturbing and I guess that goes to Richardson's indifference in actually progressing into the new millennium

Lol people acting like him trying for an actual promotion with another team is he I'm rejecting us. 

Lots of stuff to complain and whine about with the panthers, but him trying for a promotion is not him trying to get away from the panthers.

It's a fuggin promotion you ninnies!

Why would he not want to try for that regardless of how we were doing?

Not joking, I'd be down to just give Morgan our GM keys and bring Luke back in as an AHC/Consultant to Dan's handpicked HC.  

Fit could be good but the whole Rhule/Fit situation needs to just be washed away. 

Morgan & Sal can stay as one is the personnel/team builder and the other is the money guy.

F it, let's go full linebacker for 2023--

GM: Dan Morgan

HC: Jerod Mayo

AHC/Defensive Consultant: Luke Kuechly

QB: Bryce Young

Exactly why I posted not crying about him interviewing like @rayzorsays. I don’t think Fitterer is that great, so I’m would just promote Dan to GM and fired Fhule/Fitterer. If he don’t get hired by Steelers this is what needs to happen in 23

    • You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that truly elite players will always have a market because they're elite difference makers and that at the "devalued positions" the NFL has discovered that those are spots where unless you have an elite talent there you have an opportunity to get similar results out of run of the mill talent for run of the mill money compared to good talent for good money. The drop off in overall unit performance isn't dramatic dropping down from "good" to "JAG" and it saves money to invest in the premium positions. It's about skill sets and what is hardest to find, simple supply and demand. There's just more serviceable LBs and RBs and safeties out there than their are CBs and pass rushers and QBs. And honestly, a big part of our historic lack of consistent success has been investing too many premium draft and cap resources into those devalued positions. Yeah, we've had a lot of great off the ball LBs and RBs on our way to be a franchise with an overall losing record. Pointing to our success at those positions is proving my point because I just point to our W-L record and overall lack of historical quality at premium positions like QB, WR, CB, etc. We've sucked in large part because we've valued the wrong position groups. In a vacuum it doesn't matter. But in actuality every high pick or big chunk of cap you spend on an off the ball LB or RB or IOL is a high pick or big chunk of cap you couldn't spend on a QB or CB or WR or OT.
    • Right before Kuechly retired, we had some of the worst D line play that year.  We were ranked 29th against the run in 2019.   I remember even Kuechly struggled to get off the blocks at times because the linemen were on second level so quickly due to our porous line made up of Kyle Love, Vernon Butler and a washed up Gerald McCoy.   
    • fingers crossed for BlueSky embeds to come with the board update at least all the schedule reveals will be on the youtube
