GM Candidates

Eliot Wolf - 35 year old director of football ops for Green Bay - very well regarded and could be a hot name in the offseason. We worked his way up from assistant personnel director, to director of player personnel, and now director of football ops in a short time

Nick Caserio - 41 year old director of player personnel for New England. Don't know much about him - other than he seems to have an offensive background

Scott Pioli - 52 yr old assistant GM to Falcons...Patriots GM/architect of roster during their 2000s run and former Chiefs GM - did not have great success there

Eric DeCosta - 46 year old assistant GM of Baltimore Ravens, solid draft record and eye for talent and works hand in hand with Newsome to construct their roster

Who's your pick?

The guy from dallas

I'm hearing he is behind their draft picks

Good idea, Jerry Jones could be an excellent Giant

On to Ann Arbour.

Louis Riddick, former player and well regarded scout/personnel guy with Eagles and Redskins for 12 years or so, now an ESPN analyst. Riddick GM/Josh McDaniel head coach

Heard it here first.

RollBlue : 12/4/2017 12:10 pm : link

the guy from Dallas? What have they accomplished in the last 20 years??? They have one suspension and a few starters hurt and they look as bad as the Giants.

DeCosta is the most intriguing name on that list

AcesUp : 12/4/2017 12:31 pm : link

The Ravens pick and develop talent as well as any team in the league and have been doing so for quite some time. He's been pegged as the heir apparent to Newsome but I think we can steal him.

John Dorsey

Jay on the Island : 12/4/2017 12:49 pm : link

Is a solid choice. The Giants will probably look for someone with experience and Dorsey did a great job with KC before losing a power struggle with Reid.

I'd keep Kevin Abrams

Kick the tires...

on JoJo Wooden out in San Diego. He runs their personnel department. And they have done a sneaky good job in the draft the last few years...

Dave Te

Pete in MD : 12/4/2017 12:54 pm : link

mentioned Brian Gaine the other day as a potential candidate. He's currently the VP of Player Personnel for Buffalo but he's worked in Houston and Miami (with Parcells) previously. He's also a local guy who was on the Giants practice squad for one season in the '90's.

The Green Bay guy

moespree : 12/4/2017 12:56 pm : link

Has been around the exact same system McAdoo came from. Maybe he has his own ideas and philosophies but it certainly has influenced him. I don't see the point in hiring him.

The Baltimore guy you mentioned has been listed before as a top GM candidate and one that many think will be very good.

Everyone is all over Pioli

Sonic Youth : 12/4/2017 12:58 pm : link

But his run in KC did not go well. I would NOT want Pioli here.

As Aces up suggested

Bleedin Blue : 12/4/2017 1:01 pm : link

I heard DeCosta's name brought up. Don't know anything about him can anyone elaborate?? I also feel we need to hire GM first and let him pick his coach.

I would like to see a GM from outside of the organization. The in

house habit of the Maras gets old. We need a new George Young.

Green Bay guy is intriguing

Eliyah : 12/4/2017 1:32 pm : link

Green Bay has the highest number of self-drafted players on their roster, and the lowest big dollar free agents signed, yet always in the mix.

Caserio.

EmpireWF : 12/4/2017 1:35 pm : link

great resume

I could see them keeping Abrams as GM...

Milton : 12/4/2017 1:40 pm : link

...and hiring Saban as head coach, with the division of responsibilities similar to what Pioli and Belichick had.

Green Bay guy is intriguing Eliyah : 1:32 pm :

Could they always be in the mix due to Rogers however?

DeCosta would be the guy

Peppers : 12/4/2017 2:00 pm : link

Pioli a strong 2nd option
