hornbybrown Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) Stories are starting to come out now. Here is one. DePodesta pre draft in a meeting had binder with hundreds of evaluations. He handed it over. He left the meeting at which point Dorsey through it in the rubbish and said right boys let’s talk football now. Elliot Wolf was said to be highly disturbed by the incident. He wasn’t the one that leaked the story. DePo is said to be very high on Wolf and I expect him to be the GM if as I think DePo is the lead on this search. we just need the Haslims to let the genius do genius stuff.

hornbybrown Posted January 1, 2020 Author Share Posted January 1, 2020 Makes me very glad we got rid of Dorsey. The KC rumours were very much true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't DePodesta send the content electronically like all other executives in this century do so it can be reviewed before the meeting? This story may be rubbish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This story may be rubbish. One physical hard copy is much easier to keep track from a data privacy perspective than sending out a digital copy to everyone. Maybe Dorsey like hardcopies or documents? Just a thought... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The negative PR machine seems to be out in full force vs him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are gonna believe what they want I suppose, but Dorsey is notoriously difficult to work with and rigid in how he does things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DePodesta is in a strategic oversight position that involves integrating high level analytical thinking, techniques and processes with traditional football operations. It is my understanding that all Football operations personnel including analysts/researchers reported to Dorsey. I highly doubt Dorsey would have thrown work that his own staff contributed to (even if directed by DePeodesta) in the trash.

DePo reported directly to Haslam as he did with Sashi and he will moving forward. He was the one person in the organization who could be viewed as Dorsey’s equal. As far as whether it happened or not, no clue, but that’s what’s been reported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DePo reports directly to Haslam and Dorsey reported directly to Haslam. Football operations (which I believe includes football research and analytics) fell under Dorsey with DePo chipping in oversight, processes, strategic thinking etc. If it did happen, I can understand why Elliot Wolf and others would have been peeved.

hornbybrown Posted January 6, 2020 Author Share Posted January 6, 2020 Updated the title because Paul DePoDesta’s contract is up end of this week. Reports are both parties want to redo the deal. Hopefully it gets done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
