Richards: Another Tobin?

Written by Todd Smith.

Phil Richards has compiled a nice list of potential GM candidates including a few obvious ones and a few surprises:

Duke Tobin, director of player personnel, Cincinnati Bengals. Colts scout, 1994-99, and son of former Colts GM Bill Tobin. 13 years with the Bengals.

So, fire Tobin, hire Polian, hire Polian's son, fire both and hire Tobin's son.  Interesting series of events if it happens...

Nepotism!

@pierrezombie Look across the league--it's rampant. We often forget that many of these teams are essentially family herilooms, handed down through generations. Likewise, some of the jobs are treated as such.

@coltsauth_todd Oops -- I was aiming for sarcasm there. Should have added something about toxic byproducts.

@pierrezombie I got the sarcasm! You did well there :)

I noticed Irsay's daughters at the presser too. And don't forget AJ Foyt IV and his up-and-coming scouting job. Or is he back to racing? I can't recall.
