Holy sh*t. This is the best thing to happen to the Redskins in a long time.

Best move in years, bring on the next DC.

I hope this franchise doesn't drive him to drink again. I'm not totally joking

Here we go again. F u Snyder doing just enough to keep me a fan.

See how it goes this time. Lol.

It should be noted that the GM role can mean a lot of things. We'll have to see, but I think this is pretty similar to what just happened with the Eagles in that Howie Roseman was "promoted" to let Chip Kelly have personnel decision making.

I am [B]guessing[/B] McLoughan will report to Allen, with Allen empowering him to make draft selections, while Allen retains contract negotiation and cap management duties.

But whatever, bottom line is this is a talented personnel guy who will actually be picking the personnel. He wouldn't have taken the job otherwise.

Hopefully he will bring us the next Russell Wilson and Richard Sherman.

Re: Scot McCloughan to be new Redskins GM
 

Time will tell, but as of now I am glad we made this move.

Wonder if this bring us more towards Vic Fangio?

Re: Scot McCloughan to be new Redskins GM
 

John Schneider gets most of the credit for building the roster in Seattle, in my opinion Scot deserves that credit instead, even if they are buddies.

I'm guessing Donatell or Ken Norton Jr. But one never knows.

Best move Snyder has made as owner of the team... There is now light at the end of the tunnel..

I'm not sure it wasn't Allen making this move.

They just need to leave him alone and let him do his job. Snyder and his clones just need to step aside.

Re: Scot McCloughan to be new Redskins GM
 

Well Dan has done it again. I'm back in for another year.. Hopefully this will start being a professionally run organization.
