Remember when people laughed at the idea that Hurney was a better GM than Fitt?

Not nearly as funny anymore. 

Hasn't been funny for years.

 

Hurney's track record of first rounders was so good and we're sorely missing it now

Nah, it's still funny.

That said, Hurney didn't sabotage his own head coach,.so there's that.

While Hurney was no savant, he was a better GM and built better teams than Fit has. And Hurney could make trades that benefited us. Fitterer is the kind of guy that has salesmen falling all over themselves to get to him first at the car lot. He's a total rube, a mark, a sucker.

And believe me, there are soooo many better options out there than either of those guys. How could we not have stumbled across one by accident even???

Hurney was here a lot longer and did over a decade worth of damage. I'd add that hitting on first rounders is a lot easier when the sh-tty roster you built last year keeps getting you high draft picks.

He also had no accountability. It was well known that he was GM for life as long as Richardson was in charge. If not for the jeans day scandal he'd likely have been here right up till Richardson passed.

One of the biggest things you have to remember though is he was a big part of why we ended up with Matt Rhule.

The immense damage Rhule did is partially Hurney's fault, and that tips the scales for me.

Ownership.

Richardson believed in Hurney. Hell, he even fired a guy with a much better record so he could bring him back.

Tepper waited too long to fire Hurney then forced his next hire to work under Rhule.

It’s like people forget that Marty was here before Matt and Matt was here before Scott.

Keeping Marty was the first domino.

We didn't "repeatedly get high draft picks". 7-9 was our floor for most of Hurney's tenure. Three of our best picks, Chris Gamble Jon Beason and DeAngelo Williams, were late first-rounders.

Hasn't been easy for Fitterer.  Hurney wasn't a good GM, but he did much better than Fitterer.

Hurney at least had an eye for talent. He was about as boom or bust as it got. His hits were home runs. His whiffs were catastrophic.

    • Why Ramsey? Is Horn already hurt or something??  Hes talking about the FSU kicker missing everything, is my guess. 
    • Lol ANYONE on the ice with Orlov got worse ratings because of i5.
    • I was taught by my role models, never give whores coke. Never.  This pink stuff is what Diddy made famous years ago and I'm sure it will get released during his case. Best I know in the current 2025, you are insane/playing with death taking any of coke, pink coke, or any designer drug. You 100% must use a drug testing method. Or watch someone do half the bag in front of you. Fent ruined the fun.  Glad I never developed addiction on dragons or white lady..... Im one of those rare weirdos that just doesn't have a addictive personality. Few times Ive gone from 2 fifths a day, stop the day after for years. But Ive never tired unnatural hardcore drugs. For some reason of fate, I always seemed to be projected from using it. Now Im too old for all that poo and the drug game is at the worst point in some time.  Plus I come to realize weed is boring, hate away but its the truth.  I had one guy that I trusted to get drugs, too smart for what he was. He told me three drugs I should never try are 70% and up meth, tren, and crack. He used a chemist until........ and said that pure meth was like nothing else and no side effects minus staying up if you took too much. Said the 92% pure meth was the worst(cause it was the best and nothing compared), then tren was terrible sleep/health problems/insane rage/ it just fugs with your thinking and mind patterns. Crack was one time when he was young and dumb, never did it again. Great guy, I was too lucky to have him around.
