Falcons pursuing Parcells for VP for Football Operations/GM - The Orange Mane

SoCalBronco · 12-18-2007, 10:28 PM

Just saw it on ESPNNEWS.

Interesting.

hes always talked about wanting to be a GM. Couldnt do much at his last job w/ Mr. Jones as the head honcho.

Plus they could get rid of Mr. Overrated Rich McKay.

This would be the smartest thing they could do. I was just telling my friend who is a falcon fan they should hire Parcells and let him pick the coach and do the draft.

I don't like it. If he becomes the GM of the Falcons it would ruin telluride's master plan of Parcells as GM and Garrett as the head coach of the Broncos. Well, half ruined that is. And I don't know how I would get by without all of those fire Shanahan threads.

Perhaps the deal will fall apart.

That would be a great move. The guy knows talent.

Yeah, only problem is Mr. Blanc would be needing to pay dearly for his services... And I don't know if he's willing to pay him up around 8-9 mil per annum (the number I heard on KKFN last night)

Yeah Parcells is pretty good about finding talent. I think he's a better coach though. We'll see.

Why not? I hear he has about $10 mil per year extra sitting around now that Vick isn't cashing any more checks.

That's what Denver should have done. Bill could give this defense an identity.

I really feel for Falcons fans. Hopefully this is the last of many swift kicks to the groan this year. Falcons 2007 team DVD theme..........The Nutcracker!

I see hits and misses on Parcells' Dallas record. He did have the fortune of picking in the top five once and twice more in the top 11. I guess the League figured they would help the personnel genius out, seeing as how he only mustered a 34-30 record in his four years in Dallas.
