Why does Rapoport say that hiring Birch is stunning news?

 

 

He was a senior VP for the league.  Looks like a step down on paper.  Maybe he just wants to return home but still  a huge get.

He was in line for some team president jobs. Big wig NFL league office guy. 
 

His father was the first African American judgeto serve as Chief Justice in the Tennessee Supreme Court. 

This isn't nearly the detailed report we've come to expect from you, tgo.

 

I'm not mad...just disappointed.

Wonder if Birch will help JRob to focus more on scouting instead of boring team Vice President stuff. I imagine JRob would rather spend most of his time working with player and coaching personnel rather than the duties of a CEO like figure.

All Robinson does is football, he’s not a CEO figure.

 

Birch is just replacing Nihil (Who was promoted to team president) as chief legal officer.

Ahh. I just assumed when he got promoted to VP he was getting more job responsibilities but ultimately probably just a pay raise. 
 

This definitely seems like a step down for Birch, but maybe a better move to be near home.
