26CornerBlitz Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 How to Find the Best Coaches and GMsConor Orr goes inside NFL circles to discover the secret to hiring successful coaches and GMs. The literature is typically sent out around the three-quarter mark of the season, when frustrated NFL owners realize their team is not making the playoffs and they've exhausted enough resources behind their current head coach, general manager or both. The 18-page booklet, from executive search firm Korn Ferry, is called "The First Year Challenge: A Game Plan for General Managers and New Head Coaches," and it lays out solutions for teams in the market for new talent. It features quotes from Toronto Raptors president Masai Ujiri and Toronto Blue Jays CEO Mark Shapiro -- leaders of the big-thinking alternative movement that has become en vogue across major sports for the last decade. It talks about communication strategies and culture-building, talent assessment and why you need to make impactful decisions from Day 1.
PearlHowardman Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Just hire Lynn as HC and be done with it. Tank the next season. Draft high for a QB in 2018 and start over. Maybe then a decent HC and a decent GM would want to be in Buffalo. Not now, though. Not at all.
