Re: 2015 NFL General Manager Candidates
Brian Xanders, senior personnel executive, Detroit Lions: As Broncos GM, Xanders built the roster that lured Peyton Manning, with Demaryius Thomas among the franchise-level talents acquired. And in Detroit, he's spearheaded an effort to modernize the scouting operation and was part of a coaching search.

Doug Whaley isn't going anywhere IMO, and if he does get canned in favor of Marrone we would have been better off with Bon Jovi winning the bid.YardRat Wall of Fame

Re: 2015 NFL General Manager Candidates
Given the choices on that list, I'd throw the bank at Eric DeCosta and it still wouldn't be enough, so :
Duke Tobin, director of player personnel, Cincinnati Bengals: Like McClay, Tobin works in an owner-centric model, and has played a substantial role in stocking a very talented roster.Last edited by Mace; 12-26-2014, 06:17 PM.

Because Duke Tobin is too cool of a name for a GM to pass up.

Trusting the rock of Google, I looked up Duke Tobin.

That's not Duke, it's David Tobin PhD from Duke University, but he's a pretty smart guy being a PhD so you know you can count on a Tobin, especially a tough Tobin named Duke who played ball for the Memphis Pharaohs I have to add.

Whaley has been great on defense. Offense has been horrible.

Re: 2015 NFL General Manager Candidates
I figured I'd do some more research on David Tobin, PhD, just in case, and googled him, knowing people here would certainly be interested.. There are many David Tobins, but this is my favorite David Tobin, Dr. Z. David Luo, on the faculty of University of California at Irvine :

I'd hire him.
