I think Reese will wait for the best GM job available, and Cleveland isn't it. His resume is actually pretty good

Probably has to take a job a notch lower - personnel director, assistant GM, something like that. I do think he'll get another crack in the near future, just not right away.

for two historic runs that netted 2 SBs. Reese was a passenger - at best.

This is false. Eli doesn’t win those Super Bowls without Snee, Tuck, Jacobs, Webster, Diehl, Bradshaw, Osi, and several others. Reese deserves credit for those drafts, as well as deserving blame for the team rotting around Eli since 2012

and then as GM. But his time had come, like Coughlin.

No one can take away his two rings. He earned them.

Was drafting engram in the late first round. At least he left us with something positive.

Cleveland has 1 and 7 first round next year
also they are franchise that is current terrible but have some decent young players
they have never won anything

it is perfect Reese position

Very few. His time as a Giant GM will likely be remembered for squandering Manning's golden years.

Thank you.

For the Super Bowl countdown clock that was a joke, and blaming the players for buying into hype instead of blaming yourself, and for helping throw TC under the bus, and signing off on the ELi benching. Good riddance.

Nothing anyone says can take away from this.

still one of the best expereinces we have ever had together....and you made it happen.

thanks

and that 2007 draft where you did the new GM job as well as your old job! Great draft!

He was an excellent cap manager who always negotiated hard to keep cap hits down, something his predecessor didn't do as well and that George Young didn't do at all. He considered all possibilities and was good at making many of them happen.

His scouting ability was a huge asset for us at first, but over the last 5 or 6 years he lost his touch, and that is ultimately what took him down. He ignored linebackers and drafted crappy offensive lineman, and he was too enamored with potential and ignored injury history. Our overly injured, not so talented young players were his downfall.
