"In talking to someone close to the Giants GM process a couple weeks ago, got the impression Joe Schoen might be the one to beat. The Bills exec was the first person mentioned at the time by the source among Giants targets & the first ID'd yesterday as an interview candidate."
Schoen - (

Haha sure.. because we want our team to be stuck with a bottom tier QB for a long time.
I doubt they pick up his 5th year option, let along a long term deal. You typically don't provide long term deals to future league back-ups.
And when that doesn't happen, how will you feel?
Don't see him making a lateral move as OC. Daboll is cashing in this year. The Dolphins and Bears have already requested an interview for their head coaching vacancies.
He's a nice mix of young and experienced, having been with at least three teams in the scouting department and front office.
I don't give a crap what he does with Judge. If he wants to see what Judge does with (hopefully) fewer injuries and better players, go for it. If he thinks the Captain Queeg act from the last few weeks is a dealbreaker, bye bye.
From what I've read, the Bills did not have a progressive or analytics minded front office before Beane/Schoen arrived. Those two have been building that there themselves. I think Penik's video outlined that well.
And is Mara actually going to make good decisions?If this is the hire I'll be so happy and gladly eat crow for being wrong about him.

I’ll be happy when Jones is succeeding elsewhere. I’d actually prefer that he goes to to the Eagles and torments us.
Josh Allen was a difference-maker pick. Always some question about whether a pick like that makes everyone look better than they are.

So you're a Jones fan and not a Giants fan. Got it. Hopefully he's traded and you can take joy in watching him hold a clipboard
I guess you haven’t been around here wry long then lol
I like Buffalo's team make-up....but what exactly have they won? Have they even won a playoff game?
My understanding is that NFL games are not televised and there is no public record of them available. Perhaps we can have someone from BBI drive to Buffalo and ask around. Otherwise the Bills playoff outcomes may remain a mystery

We may never know if they played KC for the AFC championship in January of 2021.
With Abrams confirmed as not a candidate, I'm really hoping my first instinct was right and its either Schoen or Poles.
Josh Allen was a difference-maker pick. Always some question about whether a pick like that makes everyone look better than they are.
While definitely true for many candidates, the year before drafting Allen they made the playoffs with Tyrod Taylor. That was a roster many thought would be amongst the league's bottom feeders which was very impressive. Of course, it's just one season and isn't necessarily indicative of anything but it was pretty surprising at the time.
"Or else we're gonna hire Abrams"
"Or else we're gonna hire Abrams"
Why do you think Daboll would come here as an OC when he'll likely get offered HC opportunities elsewhere? He's already slated to interview with the Browns and Dolphins.

WHAT??? How did you hear obout this? Do you have some kind of illegal satellite feed? I won't believe until I see proof
Whatever GM is hired has to totally revamp the scouting department.
And is Mara actually going to make good decisions?If this is the hire I'll be so happy and gladly eat crow for being wrong about him.
Yea seriously. Unless its like a 10 year deal at 2 million per, I might sign up for that lol.
He needs to perform before he gets paid.
I'd like to take that bet. I don't think Jones gets a long term deal ever but if he did it would come in a year or so. Not now.

Jesus Christ...
They've won the division two years in a row...in the division that includes the Patriots. They've had three winning seasons in a row.
Meanwhile, in Northern New Jersey....
isn't medically cleared to play and hasn't even had his injury disclosed but is going to sign a long term deal when he's on the books for peanuts next season?
that's funny

You must've been in a coma last post-season.

How the hell can someone be this attached to Daniel Jones?

Same thing in German.
As in, "German is definitely not a schoen language."

You need the umlaut in German. Schön.
Suffice it to say, if that happens, we chose the wrong GM.
My hope is Schoen knows what a real franchise QB looks like - since he's been around the great Josh Allen - and sends Jones to another team.

Anally.
People just say things because they know it'll get an angry reaction. It's a weird psychological thing.
It's not necessarily what Jones has done, it's what does Jones not being the QB of the future mean? The Giants near term future doesn't look as good if Jones isn't a keystone piece, so some posters have convinced themselves he is to hold on to some hope of the arrow is pointing up

That's called trolling lol
He's not even particularly interesting. It's like deciding to devote yourself to a turkey & mayo sandwich on white bread.

Maybe a bit of everyman fandom. "If jones can be a pro QB, it means I could've gone pro if I stuck with it in high school"
