I agree Max and my concern is what Tony Pastoors does. He's a direct report to KD, but Demoff is focused on the new stadium and the rest of the Kroenke build-it-and-they-will-come.
Who gives Pastoor direction in KD's absence? What numbers does he come up with? He certainly seems like a young guy (see link below) but he was present for the WR trips Fisher did before securing Brian Quick and the coaching search that ended with McVay. So he has been in all the key meetings through the years.
What is broken between wanting a player and signing a player, while determining his market value? And what role does Pastoors play with it?
