Worst 5 Moves of Snyder era?

He really has only made two mistakes............

1)Not letting football people do their job..........

2)Listening to anything Vinnie Cerroto has to say.

...............that is only an outsiders opinion.

It may be an outsider's opinion but it is a good one.

5) Letting Antonio Pierce walk. The guy was the brain and spinal cord of our defense. And he's really hurt us in every game against the Giants since.

4) Hiring Spurrier. He clearly didn't take the NFL seriously.

3) Adam Archuleta - Nobody did their homework on this guy, he couldn't do what GW needed him to do.

2) Deion Sanders.

1) Jeff George - We had a pretty good thing going with Brad Johnson, we bring this bozo in and it disrupted our entire offense. Terrible fit, terrible leader.

I think you have the best list so far.

I know I'm just repeating things others have said, but here's my list.

1) Firing Casserly instead of Norv. I put this at number 1. Casserly was no genius, but Norv should have been fired at the first opportunity. I actually have no blame for Snyder for his before-the-end-of-the-season firing of Norv.

2) Hiring Spurrier.

3) The Williams/Fassel episode. I realize that this is hard to label a "move," since it obviously did not result in a signing. However, I think few things made Snyder look more incompetent than the whole coach hiring process. Williams was kept in the dark for far too long, news sources were beginning to mock the drama surrounding the process, and then Fassel was reportedly just on the verge of getting signed before a fan backlash allegedly forced Snyder to back off. Even if that last element was not really true, the fact that it was not considered entirely unbelievable says quite a bit about Snyder.

4) The 2000 signing bonanza.

5) Re-hiring Cerrato.

I agree that Pierce should not have been let go, and I'd otherwise be inclined to put that on my list but for the fact that I'm not sure the blame is entirely Snyder's on that end. Is that what others think? That Gibbs and Cerrato had nothing to do with that?

Spurrier, was that really such a bad move or one that just did not work? Its easy now to see it was a bad move but if I'm correct alot of people thought Spurrier was going to be a great NFL coach.

Spurrier would have been someone's mistake eventually. Snyder just accelerated his rise to the NFL by throwing him a boatload of $$.

That's about right.

1) Adam Archuleta - the worst free agent pickup by any team, ever!
2) Deion Sanders - no tackling, showboating, often-injured, waste of a uniform, Cowturd
3) Brandon Lloyd - can't catch a cold!
4) T.J. Duckett- Tip toe through the tulips...through the tulips.
5) Antonio Pierce - just as he became a stud, moneybags didn't resign him.

Dan Snyder, Dumb and Vinny Cerano, Dumber.

Yes, you are right. The whole coach hiring sequence may have been the biggest fiasco of all. Hiring the assistant coaches before the head coach, therefore limiting who might want the job. That was real intelligent.

1. Not hiring a legit football GM to run things OR letting VC kind of run things

2. Firing Marty S after giving him full control then trying to take it back

3. Duckett trade (absolutely a fleecing) by Atl

4. Brunell contract and draft pick: Boatload of money, too old, and a pick

5. Jeff George. We had a good thing going in 99 w/ Brad Johnson.

Maybe AA, SS, BLloyd need to be up there too.

1. Firing Shottenhiemer
2. Hiring Spurrier
3. Re-Hiring Cerrato
4. Trading Champ
5. Some other random act
