Remember when JR hired him to consult on our next GM hire and we ended up choosing between two guys from the Giants organization? There was a younger guy that was good with the salary cap and an older guy that did mostly player evaluations IIRC. We took the older guy and have won a division title every year since.

 

Well now the Chicago Bears have hired Ernie Accorsi to consult on their next GM hire. I wonder if Ernie's going to steer them toward the younger guy we didn't choose. If they do choose him, it will be interesting to compare his GM capabilities to Dave Gettleman over the next few years.

FYI/FWIW: Not sure if he had the title before/at the time of GMan's hiring here, but Mark Ross is VP of Player Evaluation at the Giants.

He didn't.

They promoted him because they know he gets a lot of attention.

They have 2 Super Bowls since 2007. I'm going to go out on a limb and say they are definitely not jealous of us.

How have they looked the past few seasons?

Better history? Sure.

Better right now? Not so much.

      It's not good to leave any netminder having a bad night out there, not fair to them, not fair to the skaters still trying to win the game It's classless and shows a lack of respect, for them has a player and a human being, you aren't gaining anything, you aren't learning anything , except they just don't have it that night. I don't care if it's a multiple Vezina Winner, or a 3rd string back up, don't leave them out there to shame themselves and the rest of the team  What if Lavi left Cam in when he didn't have it, and Rod had to skate knowing he essentially has an open net at his end of the ice, would he enjoy that ?

      If they draft Stewart at 8th, I will ask @Mr. Scot for a list of GMs and might as well ask for HC too.....

      I can't for the life of me figure out what people are seeing in Stewart on tape. If he can't just simply run around or through the OL in front of him, he's cooked. I don't see any actual moves. If he doesn't win on sheet athleticism at the point of contact he's nullified. I don't know if I've ever seen him actually beat a block once engaged. Then, even if he just blasts right past or through the OL and has a clean path to the ball it's like he's blind. He can't find the ball. He's like a bottle rocket. Yeah, he takes off fast but he's just going to go fast in a general direction. There will be no course correction. I watched quite a bit on him just because of his perceived draft evaluation and because of the wild discrepancy between measurables and production. Watch him play and it all makes since. He's a god tier physical specimen who just happens to be playing football. I don't see a football player. People need to stop falling in love with the potential and start realizing why the potential isn't translating.
