Andy Weidl

The issue is that while he may have a lot of input and say in the building, and maybe more so in player personal decisions, he won't be the guy that fully gets all the credit. We had this great 2023 draft but all you heard was Kahn had a great first draft. If we can keep everyone's ego in check, then this could be a great symbiotic relationship. But as you know, men have egos and like to be given full credit for their work and to call something they built as theirs, unlike this situation in Pittsburgh where he is sharing the praise or lack there of because Kahn has the defacto GM label.

 

Makes good money. I thought we were cheap?

 

How many clutches did You burn up before You learned???

 

Moving to a farm at a early age straight from Chicago....I had to learn to drive a truck, and of course it was standard. A 72 Ford. I was driving it around the farm at the age of 11.

 

I don’t know but my old man slapped me across the skull a few times.

 

Same. LoL

 

Well that explains a lot

 

Best part is my father likes Tomlin can you imagine those Thanksgiving conversations!

 

I disagree. I doubt most Steeler fans could name anyone in the front office. The same with any fan base. Those guys are pretty anonymous, especially during the season when everyone's passing attention.

Obviously his peers would take note of his accomplishments, but he's in the wrong line of work if he's looking for glory.

 

Well that explains a lot. And we didn't have blue tents either.

 

What a wuss. I was driving , smoking, drinking had two jobs and had two kids by the time I was 11.

 

Late bloomers where you're from.

 

Most of us are just passing gas

 

While it is true that Howie had final say, Andy Weidl from 2020 to 2022 was the one running the show in terms of both draft preparation and draft board setup. That said, given how the 2020 Class turned out, I cannot help but wonder if that is something that teams are holding against him. Then again, if 2020 is so bad, what about 2021 and 2022?!
