A.j. Smith As Gm For Next Season

[CHIEF CHUCKING MY SPEAR]

we need a GM in a bad way. Sunday was proof of that. That a hugh wakeup call i hope.
Gibbs does not have a great eye for talent. Hell of a coach but cant pick talent,

It was Gibbs who said that Desmond Howard had "no holes" in his game the day we traded 2 first round picks to move up and draft him. If Gibbs 2.0 had a GM handling the draft, I seriously doubt that we would have tossed away draft picks in questionable trades for Lloyd and Duckett, who both cost a 3rd AND a 4th.

Here's a question - if we bring in a GM what exactly does Joe Gibbs do? If
Greg Williams runs the defense and Al Saunders runs the offense and with all the other experienced coaches on hand wouldn't Dan Synder be throwing away $5 million a year on Gibb's salary if a GM is brought in? I would rather have Synder lower parking fees and concessions at games than pay Gibbs $5 million a year to be "president" of the team.

Yes we need a GM. Fire Al Saunders and let Joe Gibbs do what made him great calling the OFFENSIVE PLAYS

This thread reminds of the Cutler vs. Campbell thread. Has there been any sign we'll hire a GM? If Gibbs is around we certainly won't. Is there any reason AJ Smith is leaving San Diego? They're coming on big time right now. Maybe their talent is starting to gel with Norv. If Gibbs leaves I'd like to see Cowher come in and bring Floyd Reese as a GM.

I think Cowher would be good for this team. The guys need that hard-nosed coach to force them to play harder, and try to gain the extra yards...but until something comes out that's official that's all I'm saying on the subject.

This is the guy that got a 14-2 coach fired? The guy that hired Norval?

Thanks but no. A GM maybe - Smith? No thanks.

That's what I'm still trying to figure out. I'll ask again, does anyone know if there is a real chance that Smith could be leaving or is this just wishful thinking?
