been a lot of discussion.

whoever accorsi recommends.

consensus favorite seems to be decosta from the ravens but its pretty well accepted that he isnt going anywhere. beyond that...marc ross or kevin abrams from the giants, tom gamble from the 9ers, omar kahn from the steelers, floyd rese from the pats, and scot mcgloughlan from seattle (by way of san fran) are the ones i've heard most talked about.

more than likely it will be someone that accorsi has first hand knowledge of, which is fine with me because he's connected to a lot of talented people.

Not everyone.

I'm not going to hate the General Manager. If he keeps Rivera, its only setting up his failure if Rivera doesn't succeed. So that's why the new GM probably pick his own guy and let Rivera walk after the season. We need to try to avoid 2010. When we let Fox go Marty should've went also. Lets hope we don't go down that same road again.

it really doesn't matter who it is.......

everyone is going to hate him when he retains Rivera.

I think it would be a mistake but what the fug do I know?

I'm not a fan, but if our new GM's very first decision (and one of his biggest) is to retain Rivera, then I'll trust that he's done his homework and really believes we can win with him.

The new GM gets about 3 - 4 years to work cleaning up after Hurney and getting his system and people in place before I start judging him.

Agreed.........

the new GM will have one hell of a job to do.

and here's to hoping he pulls it off in record time.

      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.
