he was with the Jets till last year, so basically he left the Jets before they got stupid on personnel decisions

He works for ESPN probably was involved in this news story considering he's their beat writer for the NFCS

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Giants director of college scouting Marc Ross has emerged as "a leading candidate" to replace Marty Hurney as Panthers GM.

Hurney was fired in October, and Brandon Beane has held down the fort as interim GM in the meantime. Former longtime Giants GM Ernie Accorsi is leading Panthers owner Jerry Richardson's GM search, so it's probably not surprising that the first place Accorsi looked was inside the organization he knows best. Ross has been Giants college scouting director for five seasons, and it's fair to argue that no team has drafted better during that span than the G-Men.
