There is no out, no solution, no resolve. Dan runs the the team, Dan wants to get it right but won’t, because he’s incompetent, and Dan can do that from the lazy boy on his 100million dollar yacht with the imax screen. Dan is literally everything wrong with our team and Dan will never admit that. Dan. Not Charley, Not vinny, Not Norv, Not Marty, Not Joe, Not Mike, Not Bruce, Not Bill. I agree with you up to a point. BUT sometimes the toxic vileness hits epic proportion when you meet a personality type that so compliments yours. In my opinion that is Bruce Allen. And just keeping it real I am so afraid he is not going to go anywhere. This is a bromance for the ages or should I say when Crown Royal met Coors Light.

Sweat is a mediocre player, the notion that we got a steal is laughable. Payne and Allen are good but nothing special, considering their draft positions. Guice is a bust. Even before his recent injury I saw nothing exciting about him. McLauren is decent, I’ll give them that. I mean what impact player have they drafted in the last 10 years? MAYBE you can argue Kerrigan and Reed. We haven’t had decent middle linebackers in a decade. We haven’t drafted a decent outside WR in over 2 decades. The o-line drafts have been mediocre at best. No talented TE drafted in a long time. No quality CBS drafted in a long time. No quality safeties. How can you possible say they’ve drafted well? 10 years? Kyle has been the director of college scouting for like two years. Our last two drafts have been pretty good and comprise almost all our young talent, almost none of McCloughan's guys are left. Haskins is not a mark on Kyle's record whether he hits or misses, he didn't want him at 15 and that's the main drama within the organization right now. That was a Dan pick and everyone reported it. McLaurin is "decent"?? Come on man. Save your opinions on the current rookies regardless...they're rookies on a bad team with bad coaches. I didn't say Kyle was some genius who was guaranteed to construct a SB roster. I said his part of the operation is the only one doing at least something right recently, so the idea that we shouldn't want a high pick because Bruce is the one making the pick is a dumb strawman--THAT's all I was arguing against, if you look at what I quoted. No one who wants to crash and burn for a high pick even wants Bruce here to see it used--that's part of the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though where we are is probably a unanimous worst case scenario, I could see an alternate universe where Mike is the GM, Kyle the HC, and Bruce still in the fold as an executive.

Of course Mike as GM was never going to happen, that was his downfall in Denver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, because Kyle doesn’t make the final decisions absolutely we can’t trust the drafting. Again. I point to Montez Sweat. Turning out to be a pretty bad move. The guy has shown nothing not only in productivity but even in potential. Completely unable to keep his leverage turning the corner, something that should have been spotted on film. His speed means nothing rushing the passer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you told me when this group got together that nine years later we'd be in a worse position than we were when Zorn got canned, I wouldn't believe any of the three would still be here...yet here we are.

Quote 16. REFRAIN FROM POSTING IN ALL CAPITALS.On the internet, posting in all capitals is considered shouting, and as such is considered rude and offensive. Overuse of capital letters also creates a strain on the eyesight, and makes it difficult to read text. Caps should be used to show emphasis for only one or two words. https://es.redskins.com/announcement/11-forum-rules-and-guidelines/ I know you’re new here, so this’ll just be a verbal warning, but make sure you read the rules I linked to above.

If Jimmy G hadn't gotten stupid and thrown up a deep ball for grabs on that 3rd down which was intercepted they might have ended up scoring on that drive. The "if this didn't happen, then..." is very rarely a convincing argument to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't blame him one bit for sticking it to the little stooge. It's pretty easy to hold a grudge when someone messes with your family, and while I don't think Shanahan did a good job here as HC overall, Snyder and Allen without a doubt made things a lot more difficult for him than they should've been.
