They said there would be no change in GM duties from the previous GM. Ironically, they hired their previous GM from the Arizona Cardinals, with the Cardinals receiving compensatory picks for his hire. Round two, ding ding... Fingers crossed! No better way to re-tool the Defense and keep the offenses cupboard full. Report

February 2Feb 2 comment_232322 I have been quietly on the sidelines throughout this mess thinking that it didn’t make sense Cunningham would take a lateral move to a position where he didn’t have final say over the roster. Report

It IS a strange idea. The best rationalization i came up with (and Im not saying this is true, just the only thing i could think of) is that it is a step up in responsibility even if he doesnt have FINAL say, and since he doesnt have final say he can still move on to a team that wants him to be a GM WITH final say after this move? Also, it's going to be more money too. But after turning down other jobs, this is strange I agree. Im looking forward to what the final contract actually says. Report

However, if he does move onto another GM position that does have responsibility, ATL gets 2 comp picks. That is what makes this whole thing absurd. Either give picks to everyone or no one. Report

February 23Feb 23 comment_232659 Biggs mentioned today combine would be where the Bears would maybe ask about the picks. Biggs is super connected and he didn’t want to get Bears fans hopes up but figured fact he said it meant he heard they were at least going to try. Would be big to get those picks. Report

I heard Greg Gabriel say that George has already called the NFL administration about this matter. Not sure where he got that but he's worked in those offices before. He must have some connections.
