Thomas Dimitroff NYG interview w/ Schmeelk- highly recommend

FranknWeezer : 3/24/2023 9:45 am
Super in-depth and informative NYG team-building commentary from a longtime former personnel executive. Lots of positive things to say about our off-season moves and strategy under the Schoen/Davila regime.

Great interview. SumerSports, his roster optimization company, has a podcast that they're beginning to discuss positional overviews of the draft. Probably going to be on my list to listen to. Cool stuff, thanks for posting.

I really disliked the Falcons teams he built

he talks about his company roster optimization tools to help teams find their best 53 man scenarios, with heavy emphasis on analytics. They have algorithm tools for optimization. Pretty interesting.
Cool

Very complimentary of the org, and especially Schoen and Daboll.

Lot of buzzwords, sounds like a scam company.

Ha yeah I guess so.... lol. Still the praise seemed genuine.
We interviewed him this GM cycle right?

Seems like a nice gesture to give him this media spot on the official Giants website, wasn't expecting that. Excited to listen thanks for sharing.

Not sure he and Mike Smith were ever in synch. I recall discussions about the two of them butting heads about personnel decisions regarding pass rush. Couldn't have been limited to there.
He's doing a lot of media these days..

...including his on GM Journey podcast. I feel that he praises loudly and criticizes softly. Blowing way too much sunshine as a rule. He's got a ton of experience, however, always valuable to listen to former GMs for context.

The episode with DeCosta was the best of the series, imho. Really demonstrates how the Ravens are led and how they operate.
