Charley Casserly

Does this guy say anything positive about anyone? He's constantly criticizing every prospect.

I like him though. He got fired for all the wrong reasons. It's ok to be negative man, you only have one pick in the first round. Plus, I've only really heard him talk crap about the QB's, who are all projects.

He got fired for drafting and ruining a young QB he picked first overall because he was too incompetent to put an OL together.

Makes sense to me.

Who's this? Carr? He got fired for drafting Mario Williams over Reggie Bush :/

[Seamonk]

I like the way he talks.

Overall I think Casserly is a smart guy, but he did draft David Carr and Heath Schuler so I'm not sure how much advice I'd take from him when it comes to drafting QB's.

Casserly always comes off to me as knowing about the behind-the-scenes part of the game, being a former GM, but just not having a good grasp of the game itself. I've never put much stock in what he says at all and pretty much always disagree with him.

He didn't get fired, he retired. Announced well in advance of his last draft. A draft that netted 3 probowlers for the Texans I believe.

If I took over a team right now I would talk to him first about being a GM and or coming on as a consultant.

How many times did Texas have a winning record under his tenure or make the playoffs? 0

He retired because he was under tremendous pressure because he couldn't produce a winner. 19-57 while he was GM at Houston from 2000-2006.

How well have they done since him?? 32-37 with 1 winning season. Not great but surely better since Smith took over.

He didn't want Schuler, Casserly wanted Dilfer. Norv wanted Schuler.

Norv won out and Charlie soon left the Redskins.

Somehow wanting Dilfer doesn't exactly strengthen the argument.

Only to draft David Carr. Brilliant!!!!!!

Not the best QB in the world but, Dilfer played over ten years in the NFL and helped win a superbowl. The Skins were going to draft a QB that year, no other position was an option. Charlie had it right between the two.

[pantherclaw]

The guy was a terrible gm.

That being said, I enjoy hearing his opinions....as they usually back up the reason why no team will touch him now.
