I thought that the general consensus was that we would use an objective standard such as seniority to decide these things going forward.

What we said is that my hiring should go internal first.  Seniority, activity, and performance all factor in here.  We may all have a bias here though. To me, I see great candidates across the board and will likely go to seniorty as the determining factor.

It is safe to say that Howe :COL:, Paul :STL:, Rick :CHW:, Chris :SD:, and Daniel :TOR: all have interest here.  I will have to make an executive decision here, so please give me your reasons as to why you should be hired/promoted.

Down to...

Howe Cheng :COL: h4cheng - Oct09, team regressed in 2010 but a top team this year
Rick Straus :CHW: BHows - Nov09, White Sox improved a bit under Rick
Chris Calcia :SD: joeshmoe - May10, team has gotten worse but farm has improved
Daniel Valensi :TOR: Daniel - Dec09, phenomenal job with the Blue Jays last year; team is in the hunt again

Daniel is my leading vote this far with what he has done in Toronto.  This doesn't even include the factor that he bleeds Dodger blue.

Chris doesn't have the tenure or performance.  Rick and Paul bowed out in light of other candidates.

For the sake of transparency, I think that you should share the reasons with the league why all of the candidates want to switch teams when issues like this come up.

I agree, but we are down to two GMs and they need to give their reasons.

I was just looking for little bit of a change. Dodgers have many good prospects and I like this league because you can watch prospects grow. Winning with a group that I put together would be even better.
I would have had a lot of mixed emotions had I won the job

    Yesterday at 01:00:32 PM
  • dbreer23: Agreed. I think the Devers deal in FGM is a good example of that. Devers gives SD some now (and future) pop, giving up substantial pieces to get him (Mayo, Keith, and one other).

    Yesterday at 01:54:28 PM
  • Brent: Agreed.  I have Amon Ra St. Brown and Aiyuk because I traded JJ.  I couldn't have acquired a player like ASB where I was picking in the 1st so I down tiered at WR to make a trio of Chase, ASB and Aiyuk instead of JJ, Chase and fill in the blank.
    Yesterday at 02:09:02 PM
  • ldsjayhawk: That is probably even more true in baseball since your drafts don't payoff for 5 years or so.  And I will admit my conservatism may be the reason I only have one championship here at ProFSL

  • Brent: I'm contemplating doing a complete tear down in NFL Live and rebuild.  Honestly, I probably should have postered for it to be this season.  I still might, but I would legit need to go into the draft with 3-4 top 10 picks/+ many others.
    Yesterday at 02:38:21 PM
  • Brent: postured
    Yesterday at 02:38:35 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Yea nailing drafts and some key FAs helps too. But if you remember BAB you traded alvin kamara for the rams 1-7 draft picks. So the extra picks helped you nail the 2023 draft the way you did
    Yesterday at 03:13:02 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Its the combination of all three that is required is what im saying
    Yesterday at 03:13:31 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: And brent a tear down with you assets would look interesting. Personally i just think you need break one big asset down into 3 good ones and move carr and go from there. But you have an A1 nfl mind so im sure you will nail whatever it is you decide

    Yesterday at 03:34:25 PM
  • Brent: Thank you.  Yes, I agree.  I do need to break one asset down to 3.  I did that with JJ, went from S tier to 2 A tiers.  Now I need to potentially go from an A tier to 3 Bs or something like that.  I've had some inquiries on Carr, but nothing worth moving him.

  • Daddy: Whoever it was, he got six more choices on top of that. The "win win" scenario.
    Yesterday at 05:53:04 PM
