"It is an honor to accept the position of general manager of the New York Giants," said Schoen. "I want to thank John Mara and Steve Tisch and their families for this tremendous opportunity. And obviously I am grateful to Brandon and the Bills for the experience I have had in Buffalo.
"Now, the work begins. My immediate focus is to hire a head coach, with who I will work in lockstep with to create a collaborative environment for our football operations. We will cast a wide net, it can be former head coaches, first-time head coaches but, more importantly, it has to be a person who possesses the ability to lead an organization and the ability to motivate and develop players. On the personnel side, we will begin to evaluate our roster and prepare for the draft and free agency. Our goal is to build a roster that will be competitive, have depth, and most importantly, win football games."

I mean the information you wanted is right there at the top. What were you looking for in the comments?
The Maras own the team. The ARE allowed to have input on what goes on. In fact, we should expect that they will. Hopefully, they’ve learned from their misjudgments and sit in the passenger seat for a while.
I keep saying this. It’s the Maras’ team. We’re just along for the ride.

The ride sucks.
Hence, the owner needs to hire people who can do the job that he can't.

A lot on Schoen's plate and I, for one am willing to be very patient with him.
Agreed.
We haven't done a lot of that lately, so yeah, that's a positive.

I'm sorry, did I fail to get your hall monitors approval to join the thread? I'm sorry, I didn't see the sign that said shit on gettleman thread, thought this was the schoen thread. I think maybe you are in the wrong thread , not me. Plenty oif shit on gettleman threads here. Go find one.
You seem upset. No one's stopping you from making a comment about the topic. Go for it.
Well people - we got like 3 guys that are any good.
Don't get me wrong, I think he's a great hire, but what he said isn't anything amazing.
I feel the same about the reaction lol. I think i wanted the peters guy more but i don't know anything
yeah we said that after hearing Judge's first press conference
Can one of the reporters ask if the Maras are part of that collaboration please with respect to personnel decisions?
P.S. Fire Petit, Konz, and any other sycophants while making sure Chris plays with his ponies and Timmy gets the juice boxes lined up properly in the fridge. Oh yeah, John can take acting lessons from the Tisches for his chair throwing tantrums in the future too.
He used the word "collaborative" in the same sentence in which he was talking about the HC he chooses.
"hire a head coach, with who I will work in lockstep with to create a collaborative environment"
Do you not want him to collaborate with the HC?
I understand the concern, but this seems like an over-reaction to a word taken out of context.

Not one pro bowl player on this roster and alot of horrible expensive contracts to reconcile going forward.
Everyone loved Judge after his first press conference

Correction: it’s Mara and Tisch’s team.
After the Head Coach is hired and we have the post press conference group photo, how about Mara, the new Head coach, Tisch and Schoen Photoshopped as Super Heros (one can dream, right)?
That could all be interview talk.
No doubt that will make a number of you crazed.

That by itself doesn't concern me. As long as plans on bringing in competition for Jones and an eventual upgrade, same with every other position on the roster
That could all be interview talk.

I think after a year evaluating him next season, it'll become quite apparent the franchise needs a new direction at QB. I'm as confident in that occurrence as I am of the sun setting in the West.
But a funny thing happened on the way to the Alter. They came to find there were "many" qualified candidates, that they liked, and could see running their organization. They were able to see how Schoen stacked up against the competition and ended up choosing him partly because they were most comfortable with him, and also he stacked up well against the competition.
So they ended up having a more legit search then they may have intended and got a VERY qualified guy to lead them forward. (whether they let him do his job is the million dollar question as Eric stated).
As far as Jones goes, personally I don't think they can win with him. BUT, I can't believe he is as unproductive as he showed under Judge/Garrett. He was pretty productive under Shurmur, so what is he? Good question for the new HC and OC.
That could all be interview talk.
No doubt that will make a number of you crazed.
He also said Judge was staying the day they fired him. He’s a no nothing turd with an attitude problem
That could all be interview talk.

He’s not at all a legit source. Come on now. That’s not believable and he’s just making stuff up if he said that.

I'm confident Schoen can develop those traits. It's early in his career. Rome wasn't built in a day!
From your lips to gahd's ehrs....
I mean what can the Mara's possibly add to the interview process.
You think they interview in their clown outfits....that would be interesting.
Can you imagine a candidate asking John Mara "so what do you think you got wrong the last three times?"
With the number of UFAs, injuries, and draft picks there’s a decent chance 25 new guys make the roster next year.

...with more than half the roster originally signed by Gettleman. It would be even funnier if Daniel Jones is the starting QB at the time.

I know that's a figure of speech but you better be able to wait, preferably forever, because that is not happening.
This is cute. How about his players enjoy a week over .500 first?
When 2022 starts there will be zero players that were on this team in 2017. That 2017 roster was FAR better and more talented than this present one. I wouldn't get too attached to any of these players.
With an actual professional at GM now I imagine we'll begin to be reacquainted with what actual football talent looks like. It's good to finally have hope again.
And I'm not even going to mention Sy'56, who spun circles around Gettleman with his drafts.
Lol there won't be that many players or Jones left by 2024, so unless they're winning a SB next year

Low energy??? One thing Gettleman cannot be accused of is low energy. The guy had enough restless energy to light a stadium.

At least the new GM has seen a rebuild first hand and been part of it. Step one to trying to be competitive again.
Gettleman was part of the construction of some excellent Giants teams. He was not some hanger on, he was instrumental in teams that gave us great joy. Whatever you think of him, he is more skilled at talent evaluation than any ten of us combined.
You don't look like that if you have enough energy to light a room. We hired a has been and it is why we are now worse than the Jets.
