Redskins announce a number of changes to front office, scouting staff

[Chico23231]

I actually think it’s a decent move and the kinda out the box thinking that could freshen up he front office approach. I’d like to know who made the call for this dude, because this doesn’t sound like a Bruce move. Strategy analyst in the front office, is this team building strategy I’m assuming?...because it sounds weird a football strategy dude would probably be on the coaching staff in more a consulting coordinator?

It’s a nod to PFF doing decent work too...but scouting and strategic team building has never been more important in the game. There is a ton of data available on these players and finding how a player fits what you are trying to do as a team is vital to success...sometimes the best player isn’t the best player for your particular system. Analyzing where to spend money on a team vs where to build from within. Trying to find value in specialists for particular game sets and situational football. Good team do this shit...but most have an identity already or are building towards that identity

Good points. I wonder when we've truly had an identity under Snyder? Definitely Gibbs 2. Maybe the Shanahan's. That's it. Under Jay it's been all over the place.
