Don't know if he will be interested, but good to hear we are making the attempt.

You can add NYJ to OAK and WSH as the teams to reach out to Scot McCloughan for prominent personnel position. We'll see if he is interested

Nice
Would be awesome to team up McCloughan with a guy like Maccagnan or Mueller.

I obviously don't know a ton about any of these executives, but I can say that adding Wolf and Casserly as consultants has been awesome. The depth and breadth of this search just feels like night and day from the Idzik offseason.

Great news!
I don't know if this will go down, but replacing Bradway for Mcloughhan is instant Boner pants!

Would love Kirchner as GM with McCloughlan as the Senior Personnel Executive, the same role he had in Seattle.
He and Kirchner have already worked together.

McCloughan is exciting, but it should be noted that he only had final say with the 49ers for 2 years. He managed 5 drafts with final say in the latter 2. Those 2 drafts netted very few difference makers, whereas the first 3 netted a lot - not necessarily all on his watch.
The drafts he helped manage in Seattle were all amazing too, but in none of them did he have final say.
Does this mean he's not a good GM candidate? Absolutely not. He's a great candidate. But I'd be mildly surprised if he were offered the GM title instead of Assistant GM/Director of Player Personnel title or Assistant GM/Director of College Scouting, similar to Eric DeCosta. Drafts seemed to have more success with his input, but not necessarily his final say. Perhaps it would be smarter to allow him to focus on what he does best: finding talent.
Pairing him up with another personnel man (GM) with whom he's familiar would be ideal, as you'd have two premiere personnel minds acquiring the talent. We couldn't survive without at least some cap guy in the mix though, so that's where the Director of Pro Personnel might come in.

If they don't want to talk to him about being GM then what are doing talking to him without having a GM in place? Maybe they've heard from their GM candidates that they'd love to hire him as a #2 but they need to move pretty fast since other teams are sniffing around too. if they wait to hire the GM, he could be gone. I think its all part of a thorough due diligence process.
