Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster

The other weird twist about this whole thing is the Bama players on the Skins saying they were never asked about Foster.

It's really sloppy all around. F Bruce and Dan for sending out Jay and Doug to take the heat. F whoever decided to say they consulted the players when half the players said nobody consulted them. F everybody for prioritizing the talent over his DV issues (real or not) in addition to the myriad of issues he's had since he came into the league.

So if you were a highly touted up and coming coordinator waiting for you chance to become HC and if the Skins position becomes open and you saw how the FO handled this and other situations in the past would you interview here? Take the position if offered? I would like to think a competent person would not and wait for another since HC positions open every year but there are only 32 jobs like this and I think most people would jump at the chance regardless of how F'ed the situation is.

I think about the only front office that is in the Redskins league for being a crap place to work would be the Cowboys.

On one hand you have to weigh working for an owner/FO regarded as garbage, OTOH you have to ask yourself if any better opportunities will come along. Most teams searching for new HC's are starting from the bottom, rare are the opportunities to replace a Belichick/Tomlin/McCarthy.

I think that is going to be part of the problem this off season. Green Bay might be looking for a new coach, Baltimore, Cleveland, Cincy. All of those opportunities might appear more favorable. (Cleveland meh). The FO literally hamstrings themselves from finding a quality HC.

The question is would he come here? He is not a coordinator scratching for a spot and I am not sure he has the Gibbs/shanahan ego to come here
