News: ESPN: Cowboys make switch in war room; McClay to prepare draft board

[junk]

McClay took on a larger role last year and has been moving to the lead personnel guy role.
This isn't a shock.

McClay has had a say in our collegiate scouting for longer than has been intimated.

Now he simply owns the board itself.

Frankly I have seen things go very well that McClay handles so am encouraged about this.

Ciskowski has been here since BP and drafting has been uneven.

Ciskowski has been in a Dallas since 1992

For those who don't get it, Will McClay and Tom Ciskowski are your "GM Team."

 

[dallasfan4lizife]

Jerry made this decision...so it's probably the wrong move

 

[DallasEast]

well he coached in Arena league


As coach:

Detroit Drive (SP) (1993)
Milwaukee Mustangs (DC) (1995)
Florida Bobcats (DC) (1996)
Anaheim Piranhas (DC) (1997)
Grand Rapids Rampage (ASST) (1998)
Grand Rapids Rampage (1999)
Dallas Desperados (DC) (2002–2003)
Dallas Desperados (2004–2008



and we all know how stellar of a team that Jacksonville has

Are you implying McClay's ability to evaluate potential talent is limited to Arena Football level players only?

 

[casmith07]

Jerry made this decision...so it's probably the wrong move

But if it works, then who's decision was it?

 

[dallasfan4lizife]

Ciskowski has been in a Dallas since 1992

hmmm...well that was after aikman, irvin, and emmitt.

Something tells me this guy is part of the problem is he's been here that long. With virtually no success

 

[dallasfan4lizife]

But if it works, then who's decision was it?

I have 17 seasons on my side to explain why it won't.

 

[Wolf2k5]

That's the spirit

Typical.

 

[jterrell]

What I can see is McClay getting a GM job elsewhere soon

I think he gets the job here with Jerry moves on ....

He's very young in his personnel career for a GM job but his star is really rising.

So they hired Jason?

Me too.

 

[Risen Star]

So they hired Jason?

Besides having any authority to make a personnel decision or hiring or firing a coach and having to report to people higher up in the football operations, they are just like GMs.

The similarities are uncanny.

 

[Risen Star]

Me too.

Does that mean you have talked in the past about Ciskowski doing a poor job and a replacement is needed?

 

[bodi]

take it any way you want to

There's that IF word again.

 

[Alexander]

LOL

More of our "special system", eh?

 

[Alexander]

Ciskowski has been in a Dallas since 1992

Ciskowski is a Jones lifer. Been around forever. The real GM.

Whoever is in charge of evaluating pro personnel has the easiest job in the NFL. With no cap room and all this restructuring being done. There is no room to sign any players.
