Khun Kao Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000454845/article/scot-mccloughan-to-be-redskins-new-general-manager Washington has taken a progressive step forward in upgrading their personnel department. The team will hire former 49ers general manager and Seahawks personnel executive Scot McCloughan, according to NFL Media analyst Michael Robinson and NFL Media columnist Michael Silver. NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport adds that the deal will be for four years. McCloughan told NFL Media's Albert Breer that he also held discussions with the Jets and Raiders. McCloughan stepped aside from his most recent stint with theSeahawks to deal with some personal issues, which were detailed in a recent profile done by ESPN The Magazine. McCloughan is known in league circles as one of the most naturally gifted scouts in football. Though he was let go from the49ers, he will be remembered for stockpiling one of the league's most talented rosters for Jim Harbaugh to inherit. His work with the Seahawks, whose late-round gems over the past four years built the foundation for a Super Bowl championship, was also heralded by executives around the league.

London Kev Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I know it's not official yet, but this seems pretty convincing. I'm a little shocked that we appear to be doing things right for once. Dammit, yet again my end of season apathy is starting to turn into off season hope and expectation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
