The #Giants are scheduled to conduct a second interview with #49ers assistant general manager Adam Peters for their GM job Thursday, per source.

Peters is the third known finalist in New York, joining Buffalo’s Joe Schoen and Kansas City’s Ryan Poles.
Awesome news

Three really strong candidates. Love the way the 49ers have been built.
this is very interesting  
mphbullet36 : 1/19/2022 11:22 am : link
I thought peters was a long shot because of his WC connections...but if he is coming for a 2nd interview would he turn down the job if offered it?

I like Schoen/Poles

But I love the way the 49ers find talent.
And why

Hortiz could still be in play
Get this man locked up by Friday!  
Doubledeuce22 : 1/19/2022 11:23 am : link
Best of the bunch.

Wow. Didn’t see that coming
I'm a fan of how the 49ers are built too  
JonC : 1/19/2022 11:27 am : link
as well as the Ravens and Bills, in that order.
Friday...a new GM?  
Mdgiantsfan : 1/19/2022 11:28 am : link
Poles and Peters get done today. So we could be looking at a selection possibly tomorrow.

I'll be happy with any of them.
I hope Peters kills it...  
bw in dc : 1/19/2022 11:28 am : link
This guy has a real eye for college talent. I'm a big fan.
Peters  
Josh in the City : 1/19/2022 11:29 am : link
is my choice too. Even thought Lynch is the GM, Peters is the brains behind the operation in SF and has been for a few yrs. Would be an absolute HOMERUN hire to get him.
3 good finalists  
Biteymax22 : 1/19/2022 11:30 am : link
And have to give credit to their list as a whole. I'd be happy with anyone that got a second interview so far.

While we're on the subject, they've done a good job of keeping quiet who was interviewing and when. Schoen was already in the building before it reported, Poles wasn't announced until later in the day and Peters wasn't reported until the day before either. No leaks giving the final 3 Monday night or anything like that.
I think Adam Peters

Is a Californian.

May not want to come East.
Two guys who are 42  
Mike from Ohio : 1/19/2022 11:31 am : link
and one who is 36. Hopefully they are finding someone who will be here for a very long time.

I thought that too but why go through all the effort to fly east if you don't really want the job?

Peters and Shanahan run the draft from what some 49ers fans told me. While Carthan focuses on free agency

That is a concern. I have a feeling the Yorks might make an aggressive move to keep him. Move Lynch is a higher title and give Peters the GM title.

Wasn’t he with the Patriots at one point?
FWIW  
Sammo85 : 1/19/2022 11:33 am : link
The Niners org and their fans absolutely do not want to lose this guy.

Something to keep in mind here: Adam Peters and Brian Flores came up through the Patriots scouting department together.

I think we know

Just looking at the drafts he’s been involved in and his role. Lots of gems in the middle and late rounds. No surprise that the 49ers are having success. I really like all 3 of these candidates just think Peters sticks out the most to me.
THANK  
HoodieGelo : 1/19/2022 11:39 am : link

He is California-proof because of the money he makes. I lived in LA for 11 years and left 9 years ago. People are leaving because they cant afford to buy a house, cant afford the high taxes/gas prices, and the covid protocols/ political climate

But with the money Peters makes, he doesnt have to leave
 
ryanmkeane : 1/19/2022 11:39 am : link
Lynch is fairly young. Have to figure Peters wouldn’t just hang around forever in SF.
I like this guy too - the 49ers rebuilt themselves  
mfsd : 1/19/2022 11:40 am : link
almost overnight after their 2-14 Chip Kelly debacle in 2016
Man, I have my hopes up with Peters now....  
Drewcon40 : 1/19/2022 11:41 am : link
...I hope he is the guy. I am trying to prepare myself to not be disappointed if it is ultimately Schoen.
I would like to know more about what he does other than  
Essex : 1/19/2022 11:43 am : link
just scout. The thing that I find very intriguing about Schoen is that he really is an apprentice of Beane. Poles and Peters seem to me to be more in the Gettleman crew of scouting. Now, there is nothing wrong with that, but one of the things that I felt I was lacking under Gettleman was his ability to grasp the big picture. Schoen, only on resume and prior responsibilities, seems to me to be someone who really has all the right credentials on paper.
My first choice of the three  
JFIB : 1/19/2022 11:43 am : link
Part of building a great draft profile in San Fran. I'm not a huge fan of Schoens body of work and I don't want Dabol as a head coach so I'm hoping he gets it.

Ugh I was thinking today was Thursday oy vey🤦🏽‍♂️
Interesting  
Professor Falken : 1/19/2022 11:45 am : link
If Schoen was a lock, why bother with this?
The list of players drafted by the Niners over the past few years  
Jimmy Googs : 1/19/2022 11:46 am : link
is staggeringly impressive. Solid hits in a variety of rounds and positions on both sides of the ball as well. Mark me down as an instant fan if his opinion drove a lot of those evals/decisions.

Peters was with Denver before that and started with Patriots.

Anybody take a look at the Broncos draft record when Peters was there?

This is true for some people (especially Socal). Northern California is a completely different story. Due to the nature of my job, I work with a lot of people (many of which are very wealthy) who lived in the bay area and have left in the past two years for non financial reasons.
nice, glad they invited  
DCPollaro : 1/19/2022 11:46 am : link
him for a 2nd rd.

We have 3 great candidates now.
This makes more sense  
Chris684 : 1/19/2022 11:47 am : link
Only 2 out of 9 seemed odd to me but at the very least a third of the candidates are finalists and who knows? Maybe we hear 1 or 2 more.

Agreed. Just looking at his drafts make you drool. Not perfect, but mostly solid picks early on, and a lot of later round contributors.

2017: Soloman Thomas and Foster in the 1st two rounds, but Kittle in the 5th

2018: McGlinchey in the 1st, Warner in the 3rd

2019: Bosa and Deebo with the 1st two picks.

2020: Kinlaw and Aiyuk with the 1st two picks, Jennings in the 7th

2021: Mitchell in the 6th. Early to tell on Lance, but hearing good things on him.
Giants are making good choices  
TroyArchersGhost : 1/19/2022 11:48 am : link
The original interview list was excellent. They winnowed that down to the three I like best, FWIW. They chose the two asst GM's on the list and the BC grad.

Maybe we have made a sea-change. Pick one now, then let them do their job and we'll put a competitive team on the field again.
Impressive background  
Lines of Scrimmage : 1/19/2022 11:52 am : link
Patriots, Denver (the good years) and now with the Niners who have drafted well. Be interested to know who all these potential candidates would seek as the HC.
Peters + McDaniels  
Ben in Tampa : 1/19/2022 11:52 am : link
would be very exciting
Feels like Schoen is the most predictable/expected  
Sean : 1/19/2022 11:53 am : link
Peters the most inspiring & Poles a wildcard.
McDaniels would be rather difficult to trust  
JonC : 1/19/2022 11:55 am : link
he seems to be one wishy washy MFer outside of the Patriots campus.
i'm fine with any of the 3 finalists  
GiantsFan84 : 1/19/2022 11:56 am : link
49ers consistently draft studs so i lean towards peters but any of these guys seem like good candidates

I assume he meant Mike McDaniel which would be a ballsy hire but he does give off serious McVay vibes
