It is the GMs job to get players that fit the team. Generally, the teams "identity" is that of the HC. So it makes perfect sense that Ran said he was there to get pieces that Vrabs wants/needs. But it doesn't mean Vrabs has complete control either.
Exactly. That’s one reason we have had mis-fires over the years by picking certain “system” players that are not a good fit with ours.
Obviously he wasn't in charge when Burks was traded for The Diva... He seemed pretty real pissed.
Since we haven’t heard from JRob since before his firing, I have to believe what Vrabel said regarding a lack of consideration towards what he thought of the move to be the truth.
I get attempting to fix the cap situation, but there still has to be a teamwork environment between the 2 positions.
Despite the lack of reality involved in that movie, I liked it.
And the lack of reality isn’t just the trades Costner makes, it’s the absolute tooling he does to Leary.
I don’t recall Leary really explaining what kind of team (off or def) that would tell Costner what players he needs either. Maybe I need to rewatch for details though.
The more interviews I watch, the more I realize Vrabel has complete control of the roster. Ran was not hired to be a true GM, just an assistant to Vrabel.

Believe the Warriors are defending champs. Chiefs also play that style and they are the team to beat in the NFL. Our entire franchise is outdated and delusional.
Dude it's insane. Like unfathomable how that comes out of his mouth
He’s said that exact quote multiple times as well.
He does realize that the Colts and Texans play in domes and the Jags...well are in Jacksonville Florida right? Then add in that we will be playing in our own domed stadium.
I will reserve further judgement until after the draft and free agency and I think Vrabel is really running the team anyways, but the more interviews I watch with Ran, the less impressed I am.
In fairness, Philly was #3 in run att and 5 in yds while their D was 8 in PA/ #2 in yds against.
So they meet that statement directly.
for KC, they definitely were opposite in the regular season but come playoff time their passing numbers were significantly lower than their regular season avg and the D, while not particularly great got 5 takeaways in 3 postseason games. I think they show a unique ability to change their scheme to matchup or when one style is struggling.
In reality, KC leaned much more on their run game later in the season than earlier in the year. The statement is that a team has to be able to do this, not has to do it all the time.
