He's founded the likes of Fletcher Cox, Desean Jackson, and Lesean McCoy

Whether Reid was in Clark's ear about getting rid of Dorsey or he was simply fired over money as per the official story, the team is not better off than it was before.

You have zero evidence that this is true.

He has funky rooster hair. Hope he's not a numbskull.

The official story was that Dorsey stopped communicating and Clark wasn't going to extend someone he thought was too comfortable.

Ballard is the big loss here.

Great!! He can continue to babysit Reid's kids.

He has a Master's Degree in Education, interviewed for the Bills job in May, scouted and found several high quality players (LeSean McCoy, Desean Jackson among others) and according to NFL circles, would have been hired in 2018 as a GM elsewhere.

Nice.

JFC he's younger than me. Time to reevaluate my life decisions.

'too comfortable' is not exactly a well reasoned justification for firing the GM right before the season IMO.

Especially, as you say, just months after the same owner let the top GM candidate walk away.

Call it a crisis of leadership.

Not to pick nits, but anyone with a pulse can get an MAE.

From Clark:

Quote:

“Brett has a sharp football mind, a tremendous work ethic and a keen eye for finding talent. Over the last four seasons he’s played a critical role in building our football team. I look forward to working with him to continue to build on the strong foundation we have in place.”
Remember the reports that internal employees were pissed that Dorsey got the credit for talent they found?

Do you think that Veach was the one finding a lot of the guys we brought in the last 4 years?

Apparently Clark does.
