According to our friends at the DC Pro Sports Report, the answer is quite simple:
Dan Synder.
The problem is, Dan Snyder doesn’t know how to be the GM of an NFL team. He’s the worst sort of ignoramus — the kind who thinks he’s got it all covered and is completely unaware of how little he knows. It’s not just that Snyder doesn’t know what he’s doing. If that were the only problem, it would be easily fixed: Snyder doesn’t know what he’s doing. He realizes this. He hires someone who does. Problem solved. But that’s not the case. The real problem is that Snyder thinks he DOES know what he’s doing. When asked if there would be changes in the front office, Snyder has replied that you don’t fix something if it isn’t broken. As far as Dan Snyder is concerned, the front office of the Washington Redskins is working .
…To sum up the situation:
…1. Dan Snyder bought the Redskins to be the GM of the Redskins;
2. Dan Snyder is a terrible GM;
3. Dan Snyder thinks he’s a good GM.
Editor’s note: Dan Snyder is 4’9.
