A.J. Smith to be Redskins GM?

Smith let some good players walk out of San Diego. I'd prefer that they go get a young up and coming guy who's been in the trenches for several years. Get Newsome's right hand man. Baltimore has about a solid organization as there is. We need someone that comes from a winning organization.

How would we all grade Shack Harris, George Kokinis, and Phil Savage as General Managers?

If newsome leaves the ravens and joins the skins I will have a ticket connection. My lady is friends with his daughter .... The other newsome in scout dept, not Ozzie.

Smoot - is it true aj smith doesn't like our 3 qbs?

Only one that rings a bell is Savage, he seems ok. After looking up the other 2, Harris is buddy buddy with Doug Williams so that is kinda wierd and Kokinis was a GM for like half a year with the Browns.

SS, if these guys are being talked about as possible GM, any insight to positives and negatives with these as executives in the front office? Any significant streaks of these guys grabbing positive streaks of talent?

I honestly dont think the Ravens have done great in the talent department as of late...I think Harris in Detroit has the most to brag about in the way of team building, but still could be better imo.

Chico. None are being talked about. My point was just that all were Newsome disciples yet none turned their franchises around when they became GMs. All solid football people, but I don't know why we just assume DeCosta is the answer just because he's with the Ravens

I don't know how AJ Smith feels about the QBs anymore than what's been said publicly

lol...yeah i think my brain took a vacation with that post and the point you were getting at...i did think it was strange how all those folks were first time fails from the baltimore org.

I think having AJ as GM could be a great move on paper. AJ can pick talent, his issue was the money part of it. Bruce is a great organizer and can manage the cap. If they could work together they make the perfect GM. People's ability to work together is what makes them champions.

Yeah, I agree....Smith's son is a Redskins scout. Smith does indeed have the eye for talent and more talent is what this team needs.

I couldn't give a fig about A.J. Smith's title.

The question is, does he or Bruce have control? If the answer is Bruce, then changing titles changes nothing.

AJ Smith assembled some very talented teams without having Snyder's checkbook, which could alter which players he keeps. We could do worse at GM.

Guys..how about all the talk as long as Snyder owns the team the Skins will never be good?? 90% of every post on redskins forums all lead back to the same issue…the OWNER..so do you really think any of this will work as long as Snyder owns the team..just asking ..
