With the 2nd pick in the upcoming draft, how can the Cardinals *NOT* move on from Kyler Murray?

But then again... how do they get anyone to take him off their hands?!?

You still draft a QB. Murray can be cut after the 2024 season with only $33 million cap hit. It takes a year for a new QB to learn the system anyways.

Rams found someone to take Goffs contract. But AZ may have to eat some of that to deal Murray.
Raiders need a QB.

The Chiefs are so bad rn... They're going 1 and done in the PO's this year. Pisses me off that the Chargers collapsed! Missed opportunity...

Hire as GM whoever is whispering into the Ravens GM's ear. Whether that's an assistant GM, scout, personnel guy, janitor, gardener, etc.

That guy.

Will Tepper get in trouble for that?

It's going to take an injury to Lamar to keep the Ravens from another SB ring.

Lamar Jackson has had an unbelievable year. What a stud.

And what a great organization. I want their asst GM here in charge of our reimagining.

Hortiz has been around the best and trusted by them.
He understands what it SHOULD look like.
The question is, does he know how to transform generational dysfunction into a functional organization?
I say no one better to take a chance on if Jim is the HC.

Look, the Chargers are soft, have been for years. Bring in leaders from the black and blue division. Toughness wins in this league.

Future GM? Ravens Director of Player Personnel Joe Hortiz

Joe Hortiz, the Ravens' director of player personnel, is a hot candidate to lead an NFL franchise.

Joe Hortiz, the Ravens' director of player personnel, has already been a candidate for a position as an NFL general manager.

Look for more opportunities to emerge in the future.

Hortiz was listed among 25 candidates likely to become a GM by SI's Albert Breer.

"Hortiz has long been one of the best college scouts in the league and has worked his way through the Ravens organization the same way that guys such as Jets GM Joe Douglas and Baltimore GM Eric DeCosta did," Breer wrote.

"He did well in interviewing with the Giants last year and has diversified his résumé to do more work on the pro side and in team building since DeCosta took over. The Ravens being perhaps the league's most technologically advanced operation doesn't hurt, either."

Hortiz was widely believed to be one of the favorites to land the job. However, the Giants wound up hiring Joe Schoen.

Hortiz has been with the Ravens for a quarter of a century and works closely with George Kokinis, the team's other director of player personnel, to oversee all aspects of college and pro scouting for Baltimore.

The pair serve as GM Eric DeCosta's chief personnel evaluators. The Ravens have earned a playoff spot in four of the past five seasons.

Hortiz spent 10 seasons (2009 — 2018) as the Ravens' director of college scouting. He was responsible for all aspects of the college process, coordinating the schedules and cross-checking duties of the area and national scouts.

Hortiz, who joined the organization in 1998, also spent eight years as a scout for Baltimore, covering the Northeast and Southeast regions before becoming a national scout for three seasons (2006 — 2008).

The experience should bode well for a potential future promotion.

The Eagles may have to move AJ Brown. He’s become a malcontent and his ire is directed at the coaches. Trade for him for MW and Bosa.
