I mean if she’s the best candidate and ends up doing a good job, it shouldn’t matter honestly. I’ve seen some interviews with her and she’s sounds the part. 

I’m just glad Tepper was reportedly active in talking with potential GM’s at the league meetings. It at least makes me think he’ll do the right thing and start completely fresh.

I haven't researched her yet.

Plan to, though...

I'm not all doom and gloom about the upcoming hiring cycle. It's early yet, though.  My interest in this offseason will increase dramatically once I know it's a complete reset, which I think is very likely to happen.  Plus have to see what other jobs come open and what candidates will emerge from those potential firings and so forth. As for who I think this team should get? A real leader. I don't care whether the coach is pro or anti Bryce Young, none of that matters too me.  Get the best *possible* coach no matter if they are Offensive or Defensive, the rest will shake out.

Honestly anyone from a FO with consistent success in the draft is what I prefer. Our team used to be built similarly to the Ravens so that’s honestly a good place to look. I can’t remember the last time they full on had a terrible draft. HC is more of a crap shoot. It depends on how much control they want the HC to have and what type of offensive identity they prefer. I for one think we should be a smash mouth rushing team with a QB that compliments that rather than being asked to do it all. Jim Harbaugh comes to mind initially but there are always going to be reservations with him. Ben Johnson’s offense looks great against most teams but some defensive buzz saws have been able to brutally expose their weaknesses. There is no perfect hire but I feel some of the best from previous cycles we’ve missed out on. There’s hopefully some diamonds in the rough like a Frank Smith, Ben Johnson, or Mike Macdonald but I’m all for a new approach from Tepper his money has talked but decisions have not walked since buying the team.

I cannot envision a scenario where they let tomlin walk.  I could see a trade to a team but I doubt they outright fire him.

I don't think it's possible this year.

Speculation is s that it might be next year though, if things don't get better.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
