A New Day: Scot McCloughan GM Thread Part 2

[VirgilTibbs]

Let's face it. This team has not had a real GM since 1999 when Casserly was fired. Embarrassing, laughable, despicable and rock bottom have been appropriate words the past 15 years.

This week, the unexpected and unexplainable happened. Who knew a REAL football mind would make it to the front office. Dan finally gets it. He made the call to bring in Scotty, no matter how Bruce tried to make it look in the press conference that he lured him here. What guy would actually admit that he sucks at his job and needs to bring someone else in to do it for him? Yeah, it was Dan all along.

The tide has turned. The Redskins future is much brighter. We will have a team to be proud of soon.

What I like about Scotty:

He understands that building a winning team comes through the draft.

He realizes you need to focus on big Oline and Dline guys which takes less pressure off of the QB winning the game.

He seems like a straight shooter who will have no problem getting rid of coaches who are not doing their job.

He will change the culture to smarter football players who aren't just looking for a check.

Scotty is the best thing to happen to this team since Sean Taylor and Joe Gibbs 2.0



I'm Virgil freaking Tibbs and this is my first attempt starting a thread here but will not be my last. Go ahead, discuss....

Lonnie Jamison was always my fav. Welcome

Welcome, but even if you're Virgil freaking Tibbs 😊you will find that on the WP people don't appreciate unnecessary threads. We are already discussing SM in another thread, this all could have been said there. Just some friendly advice to a new comer. Glad to have you. Im excited too.

This ain't an unnecessary thread. That other thread is an introduction to the GM and announcing his arrival.

This thread goes deeper concerning the future of the franchise, in depth positives concerning the changes in the front office, and overall outlook on the vision of the team based on the new GM.

So let's talk about it folks.

Hey, Virgil freaking Tibbs is new here, he's not used to the way we do things around here. Let him settle in, we all remember a young member who came in rattling the earth and panicking everyone until he settled in line too. Listen Virgil freaking Tibbs, you have to understand we all step in the same line here, so don't try to rewrite the book .

Yeah. Right with you there EQ. I really hate it when newbies flood the forum with one word posts just to build up their post count.

Oh, wait ...

(But, yes. I agree it is just a continuation of the last thread which SmootSmack - with brilliant insight - noticed and reasonably remedied).

(Yes, JR is still in the kiss-up running).

You cannot have my brown nosing crown. SmootSmack said it was mine and put a gold star and made note on it for my parents.

I tend to agree this probably could have gone in the SM thread, but I think the thread's central question, what makes this front office any different, is a good one. For instance, does this one hire stabilize a fractured FO? I'm not so sure. How much more change would make us a well run organization?

Either way, welcome to the board Virgil!

Virgil, you created a lot of phony posts in other threads to raise your post count, just so that you could create this essentially duplicate thread.

Not good.

[SmootSmack]

I was intrigued by the thread title. I thought maybe this about "Why should we have hope this time?" Or maybe it was about "How are we structured vs other teams?"

But it's not really.

However, since the other thread is approaching 300 posts and I know some people get upset by long threads, I'm going to lock that one and keep this open with a new thread title

Hey ss, what's your opinion about the structure within the organization, what changes there can we anticipate?

I would expected Campbell to go and scouting department to be completely revamped, which will be a huge improvement to the org. I would hope McC will bring in someone from the outside, one of his guys, to be a like General assistant to him. Someone who can not only assit but can buffer as well and keep the lackies at bay. It seems like the skins organization is somewhat game of thrones-ish. Sadly.

You would think that scouts will stay until after the draft. Firing all the scouts in the lead up to the draft is cray cray, even if they are not the best scouts.
