Quote:Unless the Bucs hire someone as GM who either worked with Lovie Smith before or someone that didn't that's truly on the same page as Lovie Smith,  they will likely regret hiring Smith before having a GM in plaace.   The method of building an organization that you prefer is also the way I think makes the most sense for an NFL Franchise.

 

From the standpoint of what the Bucs need from the HC position,  Lovie Smith makes a great amount of sense for them.   Yet,  I think they should have been more patient,  interviewing more candidates.
