Packers gave Brian Gutekunst a new deal, just as they did with Eliot Wolf, per source. 49ers GM search wide open.

no one wants that job
Winter Is Coming!
House Dorsey? House Wolf? House Gutekunst? House Highsmith?
You gotta bet on a Wolf (predator) or a Highsmith (fantastic iron weaponry) going by names alone. Does Ted wipe out some rivals if he gets a second SB or does he retire to the ancestral home in Atlanta, Texas?
Would pay for someone to edit this to those houses and setup some sigils.

Would seem that way. Seems like things are a mess down there, and they aren't doing any of the right things to fix it.Quote:

I bet absolutely no one outside the building knows this, but I'm curious how they rank in scouting abilities. Obviously that's only a minor part of a GM's job, but I wonder how big of a win this was for GB to keep both.
Gutekunst was tabbed as the leading candidate for the 49ers job in Bob's article (no idea who the source was) and that source said that York thought he was close to McCloughan's level in scouting. They would mainly have college scouting in common. High praise though anonymous and without much background info.
I can say that Highsmith used to get a lot of pub as the gem finder for the Packers, especially in UDFA. When he was elevated, I think Gutekunst took his spot in the SE. And he received high praise for that work as well. I wonder if both benefited from being near the entire SEC pipeline though.
