Re: Worst 5 Moves of Snyder era?

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?
