A Supreme Judge of Talent

 

NFL executive Bobby Beatherd has passed at 86. As Director of Player Personnel, he helped The Miami Dolphins win two consecutive Super Bowls in the early 1970s. Then as General Manager of the then Washington Redskins, he was instrumental in picking Joe Gibbs as coach, and thus began a dominance in the 1980s with two Super Bowl wins.  After he departed, the team won a third Super Bowl primarily with his players. He was GM for The San Diego Chargers and helped them to a Super Bowl appearance. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2018. He was a supreme judge of talent.
