Who Would You Pick To Be GM?

LTIsTheGreatest : 10/19/2021 11:48 am
Assuming Bellichick is not an option, which he is not. He will retire with New England, who would your choice be for GM?

Ozzie Newsome

He is only 65. Throw a shit ton of money at him and give him the keys to entire organization.

I have to admit that I hadn't heard of him, but he's a very intriguing option. We can only hope that he's on the radar.

Not to disagree, but I feel the GMs moves this year were largely very positive. Toney, Ojulari, Williams, maybe the others, were good. Toney is a great talent, for sure. I don't think there were any outstanding offensive line players out there. We missed on one during the draft because of the tradedown. The problem is: they are not doing it on the field. You probably should blame the coach and the the effort of the players. The defense is the biggest issue. What happened here? I really think the GM should be retained.

Jackson and Rudolph were abysmal signings. Williams was an overpay. Golladay may also have been an overpay but TBD on him. Several restructures have put us in future cap hell to chase mediocrity this year.

Anyone campaigning for Gettleman to remain GM either isn't paying attention or might actually be a fan of DAL, PHI, or WAS.

Because any time you can bring back the architect of a team that has been 16-33 (and counting) under his watch, ya gotta do it!

We hear this every fucking year. Oh DG had a good draft this year! Then it looks like sit a year or 2 later, but we're on to that year's draft. Forget about the putrid FA signings, trades, and moving more money onto future caps. DG hasn't been bad, he's been a fucking disaster.

16-38
even if you cautiously defended DG like I did  
djm : 10/19/2021 4:26 pm : link
and more, I defended the process of heading into 2021 with more of a finished product and wanted to see this team in lights, but I digress, even if you defended DG, there's no way he's coming back and he shouldn't for a number of reasons:

--The team is a disaster
--Even if DG was told to make win now moves in 18, we need a new voice that will tell John Mara to stick a sock in it.
--The PR from keeping DG will be so bad, and I am one not to overhype bad PR or press, but this would lead to an almost untenable situation.

DG is done here. And he should be. It's obviously not working.

Thanks, I forgot to add this year's losses!

You weren't alone defending him. And I don't blame you, DG can be pretty persuasive in those press conferences...

Yes I know he comes from the Cowboys, but I would make him President of Football Operations



If we tried to do this my guess is the Cowboys would match whatever position / dollars / whatever we tried to give him.

Which by the way I'd love to do just to fuck with their org.

I do not believe the Giants are tactical enough to do this though.


There is no cap on what Cowboys can offer, but he will never overtake Jones. If Chris Mara and the other family members/friends said they would step aside to give him free reign over personnel department where he would essentially be to John Mara what Stephen Jones is to Jerry Jones, he isn’t getting more power in Dallas while Jerry is in control.

I would endorse this, too. But I can't imagine Stephen allowing McClay to leave.

Stephen is actually the emergency break on Jerry, not McClay. But McClay is a tremendous talent evaluator.
