The Athletic’s Ben Standig reports Marty Hurney is no longer with the Commanders.
Hurney served as an advisor with the team in 2024 after being carried over from the Ron Rivera regime. Hurney, who turned 69 in December, was hired as the Commanders’ executive VP of football/player personnel in 2021 and relegated to his advisor role after the team went out and hired a new coach and general manager last offseason. With his contract now expired, Hurney is no longer with the Commanders and is free to sign with any team who may be interested in his services.

In the spirit of due diligence, I would want to see what he's learned and changed since being here, and how much of a factor he was in building this last team/drafting Jayden Daniels.

Isn't the first pick the easiest?  He chose positions, as a general rule, that were generally successful as rookies because the position did not take time to master--RBs, LBs, etc.  I was never a fan--let's not forget, he tried to trade up with the Rams to get the 33rd pick so he could take Clausen.  And he took Clausen after 2 teams, KC and Minn, who were desperate for a QB passed on Clausen--in rounds one and then again in round 2.  That same draft, he moved up to get Armanti Edwards....He traded away first round picks to get Otah and Everette Brown.  First round magic?

Exactly. There’s no magic in taking the highest-rated guy who falls because his position isn’t the most valuable. If you want the Hurney pick this year, just grab the LSU tackle and put him at center. Instant All-Pro!

      Who Has to Be Off the Board to Trade Back?

      they are two totally different prospects, I am not going to scream if he is the guy but just know we would be way over drafting him at 8

      Listen to this dude, he breaks everything down starting with Cam and Teppers start.  Its patented insanity what they did up until this point.  Most of us on here have watched football for years if not decades and there is not one of us that would have done what this poverty ass franchise has done the last 6 years.  So yeah its well within reason to say the huddle could have easily, fuging easily put this team in a better spot then tepper/fitt/morgan.  Maybe morgan turns it around with this draft, he has the draft capital to do it, but come on with nicole and dave still giving input you just know we are fuged 6 ways from sunday.  Overthinking players due to their physical traits and picking interview favorites is clear insanity at this point.

      I still never understand the back the team no matter what the results have been. There is no doubt in my mind that if the huddle had run the drafts the past 7 years, we would have a much better team right now and likely challenged for our division the past few years. The drafts have been awful, period and there’s probably 10 consensus guys we were right on that would all have been improvements on the current roster.
