Marty Hurney Thread

I didn't realize Hurney worked closely with Bobby Beathard in SD as his assistant GM

Who is Washington's reported new GM Marty Hurney? (https://www.nbcsports.com/washington/football-team/who-marty-hurney-washington-footballs-reported-new-general-manager)

Past performance is no guarantee of future results...

I'm not passing judgement on the hire, but I wouldn't rely on success from nearly a decade ago on another team to indicate where we're going now. On the other hand, even after he left, some of the roster he left behind went on to win the NFC in 2015.

I prefer to see how we look in camp before I start judging his capability.

Ultimately Ron is the shot caller, so I think a lot of this worry is for nothing anyway. Hurney will take some of the day to day stuff off Ron's plate and be a voice in the room for him, but it's clearly Ron's show.

Exactly. RR still calls the shots. I think that's the biggest takeaway from this hire.

RR was somewhat overwhelmed with responsibility this year, and it is amazing he did as well as he did considering his health issues. Hurney can immediately take some things off of Ron's plate, help organize the front office and mentor the young guys like Stokes & Smith, so RR can concentrate more on coaching.

It's not like Hurney is now taking everything over and making all the decisions.

I like it, the more capable minds in the front office the better.

Too many cooks

This front office didn't even have a sous chef before. We've had one of the most bare bones operations for years now.

Mayhew wasn’t great with the Lions. Like him as a player, not sold on him as a personnel man. Time will tell, maybe someone can ease my mind with some good examples but I’m not getting fuzzies..

I mean he's worked in two other places since Detroit, including SF when they went to the SB last year.
