Harris' past could provide a blueprint for how he'll proceed in Washington.

One former coach during Snyder's tenure described his process as "chaotic." Sometimes he'd ask questions, the source said, but other times he would simply tell staffers to "get it done."
In 2022, Snyder pushed the front office to finalize a deal for quarterback Carson Wentz. Multiple team sources said that pressure resulted in them overpaying for Wentz -- sending two third-round picks to the Indianapolis Colts for a player Indy no longer wanted.
Before the 2019 draft, multiple sources said Snyder pushed for his scouts to move Ohio State quarterback Dwayne Haskins from the third round to the first round on their draft board. When Haskins was available at No. 15, Snyder told them to "take the quarterback."

"Jay Gruden, who coached under Snyder from 2014-2019, said Snyder often passed along his wishes through team president Bruce Allen, who would relay it to the football staff. He said it often led to the coaches and front office not being in accord on players.
Gruden said there were times Snyder and Allen would pursue and sign free agents with little regard to how they fit Washington's scheme.
It was a difficult way to build sustained success and contrasts with how sources say Harris has operated with his other te ams."
