BillyWhiteShows Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 I don’t get this move. MM has had 2 pretty good drafts and brought NYJ Jamel Adams.

It is, Whaley fired himself when he tripped all over himself trying to hold a press conference. He knew he was out before the draft but they couldn’t fire him until the day after because he had too much info. 1

It makes sense in theory, as the season for GMs and scouts ends after the draft. I do fee NYJ would have been wise (as would the Bills) to fire him when they moved on from Bowels
Coach Tuesday Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 Let me be the first to say: I can't wait for the new GM's introductory PC! 3

Juice_32 Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 This is absolutely phenomenal. That Mosley contract couldn't have helped...

It’s like the Jets didn’t know wtf they wanted to do. Gase had control over the 53 in Miami .... which was a disaster. So I guess the Jets woke up and decided they should pursue that level of disfunction. Edited May 15, 2019 by YoloinOhio 4

I guess it feels like we are further past the draft now than when the Bills fired Whaley, but maybe not. Right after the draft is a known window for GMs to be fired. But it seemed like the Jets GM was actually making decent moves, and didnt publicly humiliate himself in a Press Conference in which he threw the owners under the bus. 1

Only if their gm has no ties to gase. a new gm with a coach he didnt hire almost never works. Gase could have pulled a move ala mcd and has someone in mind though

But it seemed like the Jets GM was actually making decent moves, and didnt publicly humiliate himself in a Press Conference in which he threw the owners under the bus. It’s about 3 weeks later than the Bills fired Whaley. In both cases, I maintain that the teams should have fired the GM at the same time as the HC. But the scenarios are a little different in that they clearly didn’t want Whaley to pick the QB, he knew he was out prior to the 2017 draft, he was fired the morning after the draft ended, and the Bills did a “search” but had another GM waiting in the wings. In the Jets case Mccagnon drafted their QB and while they may hire a GM, it doesn’t appear they have one in line if they bothered making Gase “acting GM”. The length of time between the draft and the firing makes it appear this was a decision made without a process. 3
