I think the best thing Lynch did was hire Shanahan.

As I recall, they came in at the same time though so I'm not sure what all the dynamics were.

Yup.  Very smart.

They both came in together, and were both given 6 year deals to show them that the ownership was fully behind both of them.  They turned that program around in 2.

I've said before it's the coach/GM combo that matters more than the individuals.

Can someone help me understand why this would be a 'riskier' move? If he has the track record, experience, and most importantly the Results; That he has obtained through this tenure in two Franchises, with one of which he's gotten to the promise land. 

Why is he risky?

His experience isn't quite equal. He's been doing this since about 2010. Compare that to Caserio who's been at it almost twice as long. It's not bad, just not as much as others..

Mind you, that's not the be all / end all. It's just a factor to consider. Some guys have the talent for picking players and others don't. Evidence would say Morgan can recognize talent. My question would be is he a good enough roster builder / administrator to put it all together.

Unfortunately, that's probably something you can never really tell until he's actually in that role.

So basically in comparison? It would depend on who is his rival for the job. I'd take him #4 behind someone from the Steelers, Pats, Ravens organization. He has a strong enough case to give him a shot. What intrigues me the most is that he's young. The word grooming gets thrown around a lot but I don't think you'd groom him that much anyway. To be honest I want Hurney out ASAP, this is besides the point, I know..

Reading between the lines, I think "young" is something Tepper is probably looking for.

Funny thing, though. Caserio and Morgan are actually only two years apart. Morgan was delayed getting into a scouting role because he had a playing career. Caserio? Not so much.

Mind you, he had a decent college career as a quarterback throwing to a young receiver named Josh McDaniels.
