• A team that loses a minority assistant coach who becomes a head coach or loses a personnel executive who becomes a general manager will receive third-round compensatory picks in each of the next two drafts.

• A team that loses two minority staffers to head coach and general manager positions would receive three third-round picks.

Belichick is writing resumes right now for everyone in his FO.

These new GM's will sign ex-Bills like we sign ex-Panthers?

[JGMcD2]

Geez. I didn’t realize that we also have Dennis Hickey (former Dolphins GM) in the personnel department. We also have Alonzo Highsmith’s son as well...

I don't think Morgan wants to coach, but I think he'd be a great linebackers coach. He was a beast in college at Miami, and was great in Carolina before he got injured. Reminded me of Luke Keuchly. He'd be a better LB coach than a GM, but I think he relishes the office job.

Not enough obviously. And any joe shmoe would've drafted Nick Bosa. He hasn't done anything spectacular.

Some would argue he's done a good job.  SF did play in last year's Superbowl.

Dan Morgan has more than earned the right to be in the mix as a GM. Significantly more experience than Lynch who was a broadcaster post NFL career.

Weird timing.

 

I truly had a nightmare last night that the Cowboys poach Beane.

I doubt that. I'm sure Beane was a big part of bringing in personnel. Clearly McDermott does not answer to Beane, but they also clearly collaborate and both answer to the Pegulas, who luckily allow them to do their thing.

They obviously have a great working relationship but McDermott is King.

I think SF is in deep ***** in the upcoming years. They screwed themselves overpaying for Jimmy G. He is not a good QB.

Looks like PFF has been reading this board for ideas.  Not first time something on here has shown up there including false info posted.

He's not ready yet. Needs a few more years if you ask me. 3-4 years from now, he might be a great GM.

Sure, I'll agree with a guy thay can't even spell Beane right.

Well they can get out of that deal for $2m this offseason. So if that is the reason you worry for them you can relax.

So Dan Morgan goes from a good LB to a few years in a front office to GM?. Sure, why not. 

You could say the same about John Lynch as a safety turned commentator and then 49ers GM

I don't give two ***** about SF. I never thought Jimmy G was the answer for them though. Kinda like the Bills trading for Rob Johnson because of one great game in J-ville.

[GunnerBill]

Joe Schoen is the most likely 2021 GM of our personnel assistants. I have been told he is the best talent evaluator on the Bills staff and he will get looks. I imagine they brought Gaine back as a consultant to allow him to slide into that role. 

 

It really is an all star staff Beane built. I suspect it is one of the most expensive personnel staffs in the league. Will be interesting to see if the rumoured Pegula belt tightening affects the replacement of any guys who move on.

But that contract isn't gonna put them in trouble a few years from now which is what you said. It is literally escapable for pocket change after this season. I am pretty sure Jimmy G is not the QB in San Fran in 2021.

Ok. But Beane doesn't report to McDermott. They both report to the Pegulas. How you choose to interpret that is up to you.

He is right though. This is McDermott's show. It doesn't matter in reality because our HC and GM are totally aligned but if they had a major falling out and the Pegulas had to choose.... they'd choose McDermott. They fell for him in his interview (thank heavens) and he is absolutely their guy.

I know. I've followed Dan Morgan his whole career. He is nowhere ready to be a GM. Let someone take a chance on him. I pull for the guy, I have his autographed Panthers helmet. But he has done nothing to deserve a GM job as of yet. 

How do you quantify what he’s learned about team and culture building?

The next two years are essentially team options. They could walk away with nearly zero consequence

The way I see it is Beane builds the team based on how McDermott designs it. I think they work well together. Right now I think we're a lot like a top college program. It's hard to do something like that in the NFL.
