Don't really understand why Smith would want to go to the Rams or 49ers. Snead and Lynch aren't going anywhere as their GM's.
I'm not saying he'd go as a GM, given he hasn't been offered an interview this offseason so far it's fair to say nobody's looking at him for that role. But if he feels disrespected or that he hasn't earned the trust of Ron he could ask for permission to look for a different role elsewhere.
Right now I'm gonna ease off the talk of him leaving until we hear concrete talk. Just trying to be ready if it happens.
I'm a fan of more eyes and ears helping Ron, obviously he can't shoulder the load himself. Hopefully it all works out and everybody is on the same page and Mayhew/Hurney help our drafts even more.

Mayhew as GM and Hurney in front office role. Loved MM as a player, but as a GM.... I do hope they retain Smith somehow.

Per source: Martin mayhew will be the new GM in Washington. ...not sure yet about Marty Hurney or his potential role but Mayhew will be the GM.

Beat me to it. Things are getting interesting for sure. Was there ever a press release from the team stating Hurney was the GM? Or was it all media “sources”?

Interesting. Who said earlier that Hurney doesn't want the GM responsibilities? Sounds like Rivera just wanted Hurney on board in any type of capacity he was willing to offer.

Not impressed with Mayhew and Hurney’s free agent connections. Didn’t even mention Stafford.

Some context for the “2021 GM Switchgate”.

Good thing they aren't limited to just that handful of players.

With Mayhew becoming the WFT GM, that gives the 49ers three third round picks since Saleh took the Jets job.
