Bold Ruler : Mod : 6/7/2019 8:34 pm
Official.
Good.  
George from PA : 6/7/2019 8:50 pm : link
Hopefully, weakens the eagles
Hmm ...  
FStubbs : 6/7/2019 10:17 pm : link
As the GM or as a front office assistant to Gase?
Couldn't be more pleased

Jets hit a grand slam this offseason. Landing the NFL's best young executive...just a spectacular hire. Love it.
Solid Hire

Say what you want about our crosstown rivals but they are headed in the right direction. A scout's scout he's described as but the GM position a lot more than that. Think the days of poor talent evaluation are over with Jets. Will see.

Strange reporting line having Coach and GM reporting to owner separately. Not normal so who knows.

Always liked Darnold and wish him well. Not at our expense though.

New GM Joe Douglas will bring a different philosophy to the Jets with regard to the draft. He is a big believer in college production and character. He will lean toward hard-working, football-obsessed players over freakish athletes with off-the-chart measurables.

He will look for team-captain types. In other words, he may have avoided the Jets' most recent third-round picks, LB Jachai Polite and OT Chuma Edoga, both of whom have character questions.

Douglas isn't a huge fan of analytics; the previous regime had a middle-of-the-road approach to analytics.

Sound Familiar?

Seems like a trend in NY!
Gase and Douglas both report to the owner?

That has disaster written all over it. Doesn’t matter how smart Douglas is.

Also, please spare me comments about what New England does with little Bill. He’s a unicorn.

Yeah typically bad arrangement for all the obvious reasons. But this is Gase's hand picked GM so will be a bit different. Whether all that power in Gase's hands is right way to go is a different issue, but there won't be the expected friction since Gase picked him.
Good

Even more reason that it will be a disaster.

Jim in Forest Hills : 6/8/2019 9:41 am : link
it's Adam Gase. Holy cow, he will have a Scanners type head explosion at a press conference this year.

How does a failure coach Cookie Monster get so much power. Lol Jets.

I'm still trying to figure out how the guy who bought Peyton coffee and donuts in Denver while Peyton installed and ran the offense is somehow a quarterback whisperer. The most baffling thing in the NFL this side of Kliff Kingsbury.

That's not an unusual arrangement. Other teams have won superbowls with that setup. The Steelers are one of 'em

Gase has good potential and has shown lots of great traits as a head coach. Still only 40. Has gotten to the playoffs.

Not like he has a 14-34 record or anything.

You are such a pathetic loser. It's a Saturday in June and you are spending your day on a NY Giants message board. You literally would have said you loved whoever the Jets hired.

Now your praising Gase who you didn't want them to hire in the first place LOL. Gase has really earned the right to have all this power!

He always says that he likes to talk football here but all he does is talk about the Jets and praise every move they make.
Comparing the Jets to the Steelers....Jesus Christ.  
Zeke's Alibi : 6/8/2019 2:51 pm : link
They've had that structure and it works because they have proven that they can make the right hires and have a winning culture. When have the Jets proven that? They are a total clown show right now.

who has final say over personnel decisions. That could cause a lot of problems with an egomaniac like Gase.

I'm going to do you a favor. You might want to go to the link below. Plenty of other Jets fans who are doing things like comparing your new GM to The Mountain that Rides.

I don't mind the Giants. And I'm a huge Eli Manning fan. Love Eli. Was a big Simms and Rodney Hampton fan (and Toomer) More often than not I root for the Giants too.
