What about a TRUE GM

I'm not sure if a GM is really needed simply because I don't think talent is the main problem right now.

I think we have a relatively young team with guys who are still learning how to play together and learning how to win.

I definitely agree our later round drafting hasn't been anything special and that's an area of concern. Whether a GM can swoop in and magically cure that problem is a question mark.

Gibbs had say but Beatherd had final authority, and the nucleus of the Skins of the 80's was in place before anyone was going to give Gibbs say in personel moves, almost every team out there listens to one degree or another to what the head coach wants but the GM has final say.


As for hiring a GM, it's not that simple how many teams in the NFL have GM's and go no where year in and year out? The key is to find a great GM and there hard to find, that's where Snyder can step up and show his capabilities as an owner by evaluating the next great GM. That's no easy task for anyone, although I will lend my services for a nominal fee.
