Let's talk about the front office situation

Per Ian Rappaport's twitter, it looks like Lovie wants Morocco Brown to be the GM in Tampa. We're going to have to promote him if we want to keep him.

Kind of suspect Brown will take Tampa GM over DC GM, all else being equal. I think SS and others have said we can do better than Brown, maybe we found out soon.

I'd be a little surprised if the Redskins even allow the interview since they are in the midst of a process themselves. They may block it.

It would be easier to block if Brown already had the title of GM. Just sayin'.

Allen did say that there's a chance at adding someone else (maybe it's Doug Williams) to the front office. Maybe this means Brown moves to Tampa Bay and Williams takes over that position. Maybe it means once the head coach has been chosen, Allen is promoted, Brown is promoted, and Williams takes Brown's place - or Williams comes in as the new GM? Who knows? I just think there's someone else coming into the front office before it's all said and done.

What about A.J. Smith? He's already collecting a paycheck as a "front office executive." What exactly are they hiring for again?

He's a consultant. It's not exactly a full time gig for him.

As long as Allen isn't selecting the players, I'm fine with the setup. If Brown/Campbell/AJ are making the calls on players, than I don't really care.

I imagine Allen will be involved and have final say. Otherwise, he'd be Team President and promote Brown or Campbell to GM.

Doug Williams officially added to the Redskins front office per Mark Maske on Twitter.

Two weeks ago I was hoping he'd be our John Elway, now not so much. Haven't heard anything negative about him as a front office executive, I hope he can continue his winning ways in our FO.

From all I have read, Campbell, Brown, Smith and Williams all have very good talent evaluation skills.

The question I have is whether this FO office arrangement is an unwieldy multiheaded beast or if BA is really simply conducting a well-tuned orchestra that has, to date, been held back from playing its best. If these for talent evaluators work well together to give BA top quality talent to choose from, all will be well. If it's just in-fighting and "Pick Me"ism, well - same song, different day.
