Brandon Brown named

Biteymax22 : 6/28/2022 11:36 am
In The Althetic's 40 under 40 article.

For those that don't have access its very good and details young talent throughout the league. Brandon has a good sized section dedicated to him and Schoen is quoted with the following:

Quote:
“Brandon will be a GM,” Schoen told The Athletic. “Fortunately, where I come from with (Bills general manager) Brandon Beane, he showed me the way by involving me in everything, and I’m trying to do that with (Brown) — things like the salary cap, meetings with ownership. He’s still young, but I want him to be ready whenever he’s in that seat.”



I couldn't see our last GM making a comment like that...

This is right all around

I know its just a soundbyte but if I'm a talented young executive around the league my ears perked up. Especially if my GM hasn't told me this privately.
Love this type of leadership

I love this style of leadership, and yes Gettlemen wouldn't have said this. To have this style of leadership, you need to be confident in yourself. Always talking up people under you. I have high hopes we are in good hands with our Schoen.

Kevin Abrams was pegged as an up and coming GM candidate and he's still here 10 year later.
He's not likely to be with the Giants long  
Greg from LI : 6/28/2022 11:50 am : link
But so long as his exit is prompted by playing a major role in building them into a contender, it'll all be good.
Former Giant Kevin Boothe

On the list as well as an up and comer in the league office.
Kevin Boothe on the list, too

Kevin Boothe, NFL Management Council director | Age: 38

Boothe played nine seasons in the NFL, two with the Raiders and seven with the Giants, where he was part of two Super Bowl championship teams.

He joined the league office in 2016 and worked in sponsorships, football operations and football development before moving into his current role earlier this year. Boothe primarily works with football operations and player personnel departments to make sure teams are in compliance with all aspects of the NFL’s collective bargaining agreement and are operating within the league’s bylaws.

Boothe was one of three league office employees to participate in this year’s NFL Accelerator program.

The Giants will be singing his praises as loudly as possible. When he gets a GM gig, the Giants get two 3rd round comp picks.

Agreed. I find Brown very impressive and could easily see him as a one or two and done here.

On the other hand, he could be an unexpected insurance policy if Schoen/Dabol fall flat. I would have no problems promoting him...

Brown seems to be a very smart, composed, and organized man.

But let's not put the cart before the horse just yet.

This new regime is 0-0.

That's awesome, had no idea he was doing that after his playing days.

That puts this regime at .500, which is better than we've seen in a long time! /optimism
