Who do you know of that has the capability to be a GM? It's not like there is a baseball GM social register. New hires are usually assistant GMs, or people within an/other organizations' scouting systems. There are anomalies, but that is usually how it happens. No one here is going to be able to rattle off a replacement. Can you name any candidates?
The GM is supposed to provide a team with the players to win. The team isn't winning. Who do we hold accountable? Who do we hold accountable for the team suckfest? The team? Yes. The coach? Yes. The organization? Yes. The GM? Yes. But there comes a point when you stop holding someones feet to the fire and actually do something about. Whether or not it is a punishment as a result of mistakes, or a simple change in direction there needs to be just that--a change.

If Angelo had picked McClellin, I would have been expecting to hear by training camp that kid has stage 4 cancer, is actually 5'2" 142 lbs, is a chick who played in a 7 - 0 defensive scheme who only rotated in on downs which were 3 and 34 yds + so is not expecting to play a down in the NFL until the sex change is complete and she puts on another 100 lbs. + but this is Emery's first pick so he'll get a pass with a bit of questioning. - 1060Ivy
