This account was correct about Jones injury ahead of the beat reporters.

There’s been an about face in the org. Mara knows he cannot retain judge and promote Abrams, although he wants to. Instead he’ll hire an outside Gm, retain judge, and retain Abrams (who’ll be allowed to look for a GM job elsewhere if he pleases). Mara feels the heat from fans.

Sorry for not keeping your interest, imagine the disappointment I must be feeling.

I guess it's not compelling that the Mara family is fine with the structure of the organization, and as such only consider GM candidates who are willing to maintain the status quo. They're sure to find someone good, even though they've literally never chosen anyone on their own.

Actually with posts like these, it's really more my disappointment than anything.

FO when they change GMs? I have never heard of teams just changing everyone. I probably wouldn't pay attention to any other team except maybe the Jets because the papers would cover it. But unless the new GM feels the staff would undermine him or some people were incompetent, would he trash the staff?
How many teams have more than a decade of history of terrible personnel and scouting decisions at both the college and pro levels/

Is that Bettcher looks to have been an absolute disaster in terms of roster acquisitions. Disaster.



Did I miss something? What's this about?



DG signing all the “Betcher boys” . Former cardinal defenders.
Again, how is this new, and what Tweets posts or rumors is this referring to that occurred recently, as stated in the post?

I don't have a hard-on like some of you all do in terms of shedding the family from having titles/roles. If it happens...fine, whatever.

Far more interested in them finding a competent GM that can get this thing turned around on the field.



It's harder to find a "competent" GM when the position comes with the caveat that you can't fire anybody. Who the hell would sign up for that?

If they wanted to find a competent GM, they wouldn't limit the pool of candidates to people who will go along with the existing structure of the franchise.
Big difference between not being able to fire anybody, and not being able to fire the owners. He can't fire the owners. Not the same as "can't fire ANYBODY".
Yes you are right, he will be able to fire people not

Named Mara or McDonnel (or Barnes for that matter)

But the 2nd point holds. It will be interesting to see if candidates refuse interviews or withdraw from consideration after interviewing

Don’t forget Abrams. He’s part of the deal too.
Not certain you can just pinpoint a solid candidate withdrawing

their name from consideration as having a problem with the family or organizational structure. But agree that it doesn't look good for whatever the reason and the rumors will swirl.
