Ross is brought in to the be the new GM, he fires Rivera.

Then Hires Kevin Gilbride as the new HC

Who would probably bring along a few of the coaches with him from NY.

Lord, I hope you're wrong on that second point. I wouldn't want Gilbride.

If you're pulling from the Giants staff, wouldn't Fewell make more sense?

He would if the Panthers were wanting to go with a Defensive Coach again, but I think they'll look to the offensive side of the ball this time for a HC. What are your issues with Gilbride if he brings a good DC with him?

I remember his prior stint (San Diego, I think). His career track reads "good coordinator, lousy head coach". A guy like Greg Roman might be better if you're looking offense.

For the record though, I'm not that big a Perry Fewell fan either.

It was in San Deigo and he was fired because of the Ryan Leaf debacle.

While I'm at it, here are mine (candidate specific)...

Eric DeCosta, to no one's surprise, stays in Baltimore and continues to wait on Ozzie Newsome to retire.

I think Tom Gamble ends up with the Jacksonville GM spot (with his first duty being to acquire The Golden Calf of Bristol whether he wants him or not).

With the word that Rod Graves may be out, Steve Keim probably gets the GM gig in Arizona.

Joey Clinkscales stays in Oakland and continues to try to help his close friend Reggie McKenzie put out the dumpster fire that is the Raiders.

Scot McCloughan stays n Seattle (and why not? they look great right now)

George Kokinis remains an assistant to Ozzie Newsome (and eventually to Eric DeCosta)

That leaves us with Dave Gettleman and Marc Ross.

While my first choice would be Gettleman, I think Ross gets the job. Maybe he brings Gettleman alone too as a director of Pro Scouting or some such (Lord knows we could probably use a new one of those).

Not really going out on a limb here, I know.

As to Rivera, I think he stays for an audition year, and I think Ross is the one who makes that call.

Up next, the winning lottery numbers... :unsure:

So who is going to take care of salary cap and roster management out of these two?

Neither.

I think they hire someone else for that job.

(I'd look to the Eagles; Lord knows they've been good at it)

So you think we will need 2 guys to do the job Hurney was doing on his own? Who will the buck stop at? the gm or the guy in charge of the purse?

      Edge Rushers

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Super raw, not sure he is worth a top 10 pick.  Primary a pass rusher.  A bit like Burns, very fast athletic but doesnt always follow the play.  His highlights look good but when you watch him play you can see he is just raw and needs to develop

      Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.

      Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.
