According to one source in the loop, the only other name associated in NFL circles with the soon-to-be-vacant position with the Browns is Tom Gamble. Gamble is director of player personnel with the San Francisco 49ers and is considered a viable candidate for several general manager positions expected to open in the NFL.
But because the position Banner has created is on a same plane with the job Gamble currently holds in San Francisco, Gamble would not give the Browns’ job a second thought.
Banner effectively has created a position that only Lombardi would accept.
It is my belief that Gamble has become one of the most important figures in the 49ers organization because of everything he does, the track record he has, and the reputation he has earned. Losing him, to me, seems like it would be a very unfortunate thing. The Raiders were interested in him as well but he turned them down a while back.
