Former NY Giants GM Ernie Accorsi Hired To Search For Panthers GM

[Cavscout]

Nice hire JR

[Herbert The Love Bug]

Some people on here expect GM's too draft Tom Brady's, Ray Lewis, and Adrian Peterson's with every single pick in the draft. smh

I only expect GMs to draft Jimmy Clausen, Armanti Edwards, and Eric Norwood. Anything more, then great

[CatMan72]

This is a GREAT move, he setup Reese to take over for him in NY and helped the Falcons select Dimitroff.

[Pimpdaddy]

JR got dis train rollin in the right direction...

[Argus Plexus]

A great first step.

To be fair Clausen was not a bad pick at the time

[PantherGuy]

Oops my bad. I have no clue who he is. I thought he was the giants GM. My bad.

He used to be the Giants' GM. I think he retired in 2006.

[FastNFurious]

Wonder if this bodes well for the coaching staff...

[rodeo]

Let's keep in perspective that people thought Dimitroff was a derp until this year. Sam Baker, Peria Jerry, giving up most of their draft to get a #2 WR when they had a ton of holes to fill.

[Mr. Scot]

Someone get Mr. Scot on his Colts, Browns, and Giants connections

Someone get me some free time. I don't have much lately :lol:

a smart manager would look closely to see what rivera and co. do this last half of the season to see if the players are grasping and buying into the system, if it's working, how the players are responding to rivera and the coaches, and it can be built on and worth building on.

tell that to those busted ear drums i caused when i let out a blood curdling "NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111!!111!!1

i hated it. i tried warming up to it and convincing myself that they knew something i didn't about him...but that just wasn't the case. he was who i thought he was.

[Mr. Scot]

While we're on this topic, I agree the Accorsi hire increases the chances that someone like Marc Ross or Kevin Abrams gets a shot here (posted such a while back).

But with that said, it's not a lock. Look at the Falcons.

Add in that Accorsi might not just recommend certain candidates, but also might suggest changes in front office structure.
