ctm Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 I was hoping he'd stay in the AFC south. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he's actually a decent scout when he's not the decision maker? Lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Righteous Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 It just seems like to me Ruston kept wanting to hit the home run. He wanted to be the guy who showed the smarts to get the next great player. He wasn't satisfied with hitting singles so he over-drafted and drafted players that no one else valued. Unfortunately he just had a lot of big swings and misses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Earl Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 From a Falcons fan: Webster likely got the job because he ripped the Falcons off on the Levitre trade & Blank was impressed. and: all right! a 5th GM… whew, i was getting worried the falcons were gonna be a little short on gm’s.

Yes because only a select few of NFL GM's has the vision/ability to trade a player for a sixth round pick plus a conditional one...lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

abenjami Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 This could actually be a great hire if the plan is to ask Webster who to draft and then use that information to pick someone else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't really thought through it, but it seems trading was one area Webster did well in. Not that he made smart trades, just that he got good value in trades. I can't recall him getting fleeced or even being on the obvious wrong end of a trade, but I'm sure there were times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Justin Hunter trade was pretty bad. Also, the Falcons hired former Bucs HC Raheem Morris as their new WR coach. That one is pretty weird. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
