No matter how you feel his results speak for themselves and Kyle is well respected around the league as a competent talent evaluator. It would be a bad loss for the org; you can’t have too many people who evaluate talent well.

Again, we will be able to see how this plays down the road. We know who we passed on here.

I agree.

These are moves that can't be judged today, but I hope we're not looking back in 5 years on Rivera and co. the way we look back at Mike Shanahan or Jay Gruden.

Kyle Smith represents the last of the young guns (Kyle S., McVay, LaFleur) to rise up in this organization and move on to better situations elsewhere. Time will tell if he's destined for a starring role but I'm sad to see him go.

In the meantime I still trust Ron's process, until the results don't pan out at least.

How do we look back on Jay Gruden?

Somebody who was in over his head and not a good HC.

Here it comes...

“Update from @Russellmania621: #Rams, #49ers, #Packers, #Raiders have all shown interest in Kyle Smith.

Regarding San Francisco (which would be a lateral move): "I've heard Washington would not stand in their way."

If he comes to SF I’m going to have a coronary, I would hate to see him build this team into a dynasty, my most hated team in the NFL. Fucking beyond pissed off at letting him walk.

Now he's a dynasty builder... mmmmk...

Does anyone else on here think that the infatuation with Kyle is just a bit much - or is it just me. I mean, I'm sure he's a good guy, and he has a keen eye for talent (blah, blah, blah), but is he really a unicorn in that respect? Aren't there a ton of dudes around the league that can do his job as good or better? Y'all act like he has been the only one in the room when decisions were made - and he was the final decision maker.

Let him go already - if that is what is going to happen... At this point, I could care less.

All of this 110%.

The franchise has shown signs of turning a corner primarily because of Rivera. I trust what he's doing.

I don’t know how long you’ve been a fan, but after 30 fucking years of ineptitude, 3 years of solid drafts, especially the last 2. You don’t have to be blind to see what Smith has done. His mid to lower rounds are better than anyones, his achilles has been the 4th rounders, some of those picks are still to be determined if they’ll pan out. I guess McLaurin, Gibson, Settle, Holcomb, Moreland, Kurl and others are shitty picks? You think Mayhew/Hurney would be able to do that? I highly doubted.

Were not blind but you are going WAY overboard with this. He’s not the only person on the planet who can pick players. Sorry but it is that simple. If it means that much to you, go follow the team he goes to.

Therein lies the flaw in this argument. Again, you cannot attribute this roster and the previous three years of draft picks (both good and bad) to Smith, and Smith alone.

The interesting thing there is they all have ties to Gruden's Redskins. We keep hearing how awesome he is but that list says something different to me.

Yup, couple guys we let walk went on to 2 SB and another who could go to one this year. Clearly they have no clue how to coach and manage talent

Success to this team is clearly a bad word.
