When the #Ravens’ Ozzie Newsome retires at the end of this season, there will be exactly one minority GM in the NFL: the #Dolphins’ Chris Grier.
Two years ago, there were seven. (BAL, BUF, CLE, HOU, MIA, OAK, NYG)

No one wants to discuss this topic but it matters in a league where 70% of the players are minorities.
Yes. We want the best candidates to get all of the top jobs but we also want owners/execs to move beyond their comfort zones to consider candidates that don’t look like them.
But it’s also more than getting interviews… It’s about hiring interns and scouts from different backgrounds. Diversity (race/gender/background) in #NFL front offices is a positive development. Different thoughts, ideas and perspectives..

Cox, Ngata, Bennett, Graham, and Long-Mr White, Mr Blue, Mr Blond, Mr Pink and Nice Guy Eddie. A bunch of Philly bank robbers! Cox and Bennett the most effective rush duo in NFL 53 QB hits & 14.5 sacks. Rams Oline can’t allow the bad guys to tie up Goff & throw him in the trunk.
