“Buffalo Assistant GM with a very impressive second interview today. Ryan Poles (who really impressed his initial interview) is next, with Adam Peters possibly a third candidate to get a second interview.“
As much as I thank EA for what he did his time here as GM, I'm just as pissed at him for doing a solid for his old pal Gettleman & recommending him to Mara in the biggest sham GM 'search' one could orchestrate.

Mara wanted Gettleman all along but wanted to make it look like it was a legit search somewhat so had Accorsi guide the search. Accorsi was not to blame for Gettleman imo, it was what Mara wanted from the start, just had to try to make it look like a legitimate search so thats where Accorsi came in.

Eeeh...that's a bit of a stretch. Of course DG was an easy sell to Mara, but it's not like consulting on GM searches was something foreign for Accorsi...other teams have used him as a resource for their vacancies. Either way, thank the good Lord theyre not going the consultant route period this time.
I think Schoen is the one that I want least. I’m a little scared off by the Brandon Beane/Gettleman connection. Would rather steer clear of anyone that has that close of a link to Gettleman.

Mike - normally I would not agree since they are like cousins once removed, but Gettleman was such a friggin' disaster your viewpoint has merit...

yeah whats this link people keep talking about with Schoen and Gettleman?
Schoen works for Brandon Beane, Beane worked under Gettleman in Carolina. Kind of a weak link, but closer connection than any of the other top candidates.

Very weak link. They weren't even in the building together. First Beane was there before Gettleman, but remained in his position. When he went to Buffalo he poached Schoen from the Dolphins. Yes Schoen started out with Caronlina as an intern but that was many years before Gettleman got there. We don't even know if they have ever met in life. Very weak.

Just to completely round it out, when Gettleman was fired from Carolina, Beane hired him as a consultant in Buffalo. So my guess is he and Schoen did some work together...

Because no has ever worked for a top level executive where they disagreed with their process. Who says that Schoen agreed with Getty’s decisions? Maybe Schoen was one of those “computer guys” that Gets did not put much faith in, but Beane had more faith in his process and brought him to Buffalo and it worked.
Thank god he's not involved with this search.

Every decision Mara has made the last decade has been wrong.

The recaps are sounding a little like surgeries on athletes... which are all described as "very successful".

Schoen worked with Parcells.. feel better now?

Couldn’t that be easily possible?
