Atlanta Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff must have thick skin by now. He’s endured a lot during his decade-long tenure with this team: criticism, effusive praise, commentary about his choice of hair pomade. But don’t be fooled by his bike shorts, there’s a method to this man’s madness. He relies heavily on his merry team of scouts and they’ve done excellent work for him over the years.
The Mothership’s Matthew Tabeek published a must-read series today. Seriously, you must read it. It includes an article about the Falcons’ front office approach generally and as an added bonus it includes several articles that specifically highlight all the men that make up Dimitroff’s staff.
