Ask you're Landry Hat.Is he truly the GM without a title.
Ask you're Landry Hat.Is he truly the GM without a title.
That is a nice summation and a great way to view it.He's been on the "scene" for over a decade in various roles in the organization.
His biggest addition to this franchise in his current role was exactly why Jerry installed him into that position. He's great at processing information and being able to take input from the coaches and scouts and put forth a clear pecking order in the draft for Jerry and Stephen to make their choices.
We have an odd structure where the owner and his son are the GMs but don't really do all the day to day stuff GMs do. I doubt Jerry is sitting around viewing college tape like most GMs might. Jerry trusts McClay to do all the leg work and give him the tools to make the right choice.
I know the answer. No he's not the GM with or without title. He's the scout. He's the guy with all the inside information.Ask you're Landry Hat.
He gave his blessing on not drafting Jogphnny football. Being more open to input from others is not the same as abdicating his authority. And yes, giving his blessing is a decision. If he doesn’t approve something it doesn’t happen.He didn't give his Blessing on Johnny Football. Just saying. Jerry does not make all the decisions and giving his Blessing is not a decision. It's a go ahead. If you think it's best I don't know any longer
His job is not to take into account various issues. I really cant even believe you think it is. You really think the Cowboys don't have people that do that type of research for the team? This is a billion dollar company.Don't be stupid or naive. You don't think McClay takes into account character and potential off the field issues into account when evaluating a draft pick or free agent?
There isn't a shred of doubt that McClay and the Cowboys knew about Irving's various issues, but at that cost and their need along the DL, it was worth the risk to take a flier on him.
It didn't really work out, much like many of their recent FA moves.
See people take low posting numbers as a rookie without any insight. But I know better than that it doesn't matter how many posts you have or don't have. It's quality of the post. Too bad everyone doesn't realize thatAsk you're Landry Hat.
Now that you've answered you own question we can get the mods to close this.I know the answer. No he's not the GM with or without title. He's the scout. He's the guy with all the inside information.
Isn't it Conor McGregorIsn't Rowdy the real GM

The guy is overrated. Horrible at Pro Personnel.
The old forum. You are rated by rookie next I believe was player. All Pro all the way up to Landry's hat. You are rated by how many posts and likes you acquired.What is the Landry Hat you miss and make mention of?
I had over a hundred thousand post and never press the report button I was pretty proud of that. And it would get absolutely brutal. This is mild comparedWhat is the Landry Hat you miss and make mention of?

If it doesn't matter how many posts why do you miss the status of the Landry Hat? By the way I came over from that forum as well. I knew what the hat was.I had over a hundred thousand post and never press the report button I was pretty proud of that. And it would get absolutely brutal. This is mild compared
depends..under Parcells, not bad at all. but pretty crappy otherwise. MCclay has been a Godsend.One question............how was our drafting before he arrived on the scene?
Didn't Parcells lobby for the future HOF'er Bobby Carpenter pick though?depends..under Parcells, not bad at all. but pretty crappy otherwise. MCclay has been a Godsend.
