I hated to create a new thread for this, but didn't know where to put it and thought it might be of interest to some of you.
If Tanny’s involved, he’ll probably replace the website with another one that he traded first- and third-round picks for.
It looks like he went on Wix and spent 4 minutes putting a site together by himself. I used to make better sites on Angelfire and Geocities when I was 12.
Geocities! Now there's a name I haven't heard or thought of in ages! I'm no fan of Tanny's but if former GMs and Coaches will share real info, it could be very interesting and one could learn a lot. Hopefully, he'll hire someone to design the site and make it more professional.
So I just spent about 10 minutes scrolling through that mess and I'm having a fair bit of trouble determining who the other GMs and HCs are. I'd gamble that the 33rd team is probably made up in large part by graduate level students.

If it's actually an analytics site it would be a great addition to the current roster of NFL related sites. In that scenario it is mostly graduate students who are crunching the numbers and telling us things that should be obvious - like go for it on 4th and short almost anywhere on the field but certainly when you have the ball on the other team's side of the 50. If the site is mostly ex-GM's, well it is going to be next to useless because there is a reason that they are ex-GM's. Mike Tannenbaum, BTW, was one of the best GM's at spinning his team's wheels in the mud. Virtually every strategy that he thought had value actually led his teams into circular cap/talent hell.
