I don’t know how you blame just the GM on this one.  Wilson was elite for a pretty solid stretch
of time and going out and getting an elite QB is usually one of the best moves
you can make.  I think all the front
office guys were probably in alignment on going out and getting him.  I think Wilson just has undiagnosed CTE and it
burned the Broncos that they didn’t detect it.

Wilson was obviously in decline in his last couple of seasons in Seattle. Don’t forget the abysmal Hackett hire that didn’t make it 1 season on top of this enormous $85 million dead cap hit. If you think there are more guys to blame, they should be fired too!

Sean Peyton is happy to have a now weak, neutered general manager he can puppeteer.  No doubt he made sure that George Paton would be retained.

Bringing a new guy in who has ideas and ambitions would only upset the power structure where Sean is now sitting at the top.  Capiche?

As for Wilson's next stop, the combine rumor was Pittsburgh.
