Conn Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 1 hour ago, Dont Taze Me Bro said: Not so sure about that yet. From this ESPN article: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39264819/ron-rivera-fired-former-gms-advise-commanders-overhaul So we are keeping the GM to help find a new head coach, then determining if they will stay or not afterwards....I don't like this approach. Thinking outside the box and bringing in Myers is one thing, letting the current GM and Executive VP of Football/Player Personnel assist in any way turns me off. They needed to clean house and should have started looking for a new VP and GM before the season ended and hired them immediately after, imo. It doesn’t say they’re assisting in the search. It says they’re staying on staff until the new guys are hired—who will then decide what to do with them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I don’t expect the head coach hired until around the SuperBowl. I do want the Head of Football Ops/GM to have a say when the final decision is made on head coach. The coach and Gm need to be on the same page and if the new Gm isn’t involved in the final process of hiring coach, bound to problems at some point in future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I know its boring to pick the top guy according to most, but I've loved everything i've read about Ben Johnson, not just a coach but his personality-leadership skills, too. That would be my guy but i like some others too 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume the nudge nudge wink wink deals are already done with the GM. They might be, but I am pretty sure they are not spit balling and have a pecific plan.

I just relistened to Spielman's interview with Keim, he gets that and big time. So I assume the hires will be coordinated somehow 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovemaskins Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 7 minutes ago, BatteredFanSyndrome said: Seriously, average to above average? I said we can’t afford to cut him, but average to above average is 😂. You must only watch Commanders football and Jalen Ramsey type highlights. Guys like Forbes are literally what NFL corners look like. It’s probably the hardest position to play in pro sports minus QB. Every highlight you see on SportsCenter is a corner getting roasted and every franchise’s fan hate their 2nd and 3rd corner. And we had some of the worst coaching and 0 pass rush. But you think he should be Leon Sandcastle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be my guy but i like some others too Last game, that dude used his eligible Olineman to decoy and easy TD for his TE, and then actually threw said Olineman a pass later. Forget adjusting to the flow of a game, that dude adjusted to ref controversies in the span of a week and used them to his advantage. Yes please. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Glenn Cook, assistant GM, Cleveland Browns: The former University of Miami linebacker has interviewed for the Chicago Bears, Minnesota Vikings and Titans jobs over the past two offseasons. He has proved himself in the forward-thinking Cleveland personnel department, integrating analytics and data into the old-school football background working for Bill Polian, Ted Thompson and John Dorsey. And Cleveland’s ability to withstand a bunch of injuries this season to make the playoffs this year is a shining example of the strength of the roster that Cook helped GM Andrew Berry build. Ian Cunningham, assistant GM, Chicago Bears: Cunningham was on the cusp of landing the Arizona Cardinals job before pulling his name out last year. He interviewed in Tennessee, too, and that was without the results the Bears are getting now in the rebuild he has helped orchestrate alongside GM Ryan Poles. Cunningham came from Philly, where he was college director and assistant director of player personnel for Howie Roseman. He also worked under Ozzie Newsome in Baltimore, where he worked his way into a position as Southeast area scout—a post that Newsome, the Alabama legend, didn’t staff lightly. https://www.si.com/nfl/2024/01/05/nfl-future-general-managers-list-candidates-week-18 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
