(13) Chris Moore on Twitter: "I can confirm what has widely been speculated regarding Dave Gettleman, he will retire on Monday." / Twitter

 

It will be interesting to see who they hire as GM and if Mara forces them to work with Judge. They are a bigger **** show then the Jets. Also reported on WFAN.

Horrendous GM for the Giants. Just unspeakably poor. Should have been fired immediately after drafting a running back second overall. The compensation he could have received by trading down in that draft would have been astronomical. 

well we can thank him and Elway for Josh falling to 7.

If the Giants' new regime declines Daniel Jones'  5th year option and lets him walk he might be a good replacement for Trubisky if Mitch moves on.

I think Jones still has hopes for being a starter in this league. In his defense the Giants OL is garbage.

When they took Barkely at No. 2, I was like "OMG. I can't believe that. How clueless are these football people?"

Yeah, that move rivaled the draft day stupidity of Rich Kotite and Marv Levy.

This is probably Belichick's last chance at his dream job.

Do you think that he would accept the job if offered?

The initial mistake was putting Eli back in after fans got upset he was benched. That told us they had a meddling owner. That decision caused them to go RB the following year and then reach for Jones the following year. It was a domino effect.

Bill is what 69,70?. Maybe if he were younger but now I don't know. Probably wants to win one with Jones before retiring. Honestly how much longer do you think he will coach?

And then took Daniel Jones and DeAndre Baker in the first round in the next draft 😂

Walk fast.  All Kelvin Benjamin had to do was a light jog, and Gettleman probably would have been pushing up daisies instead of hectoring players over stealing food. 🤨

These are good examples of why it is kind of idiotic for people to repeat the mantra: "Take the best man available" in the draft.

 

It assumes you have an accurate master list of all the players and their ranking.  You don't! 

 

Who the hell knows who the best player is?  Not these NFL teams doing the drafting! 

 

Look at the shenanigans we pulled and the assets BURNED to move way up in the draft and get Sammy Watkins when much better receivers were available for much less lower in the draft.

 

We clearly had no idea who the best man available was.

I can't imagine BB switching his life up like that at his current age and with his current legacy in NE...

 

He's obviously an enormously ambitious workaholic (as all these NFL HCs are), but...

 

20 years ago?  He might well make that move.  Now?  

 

I assume he is winding down and will retire with the Patriots.

No chance.  There are around 30 other QBs in the league I'd take over Jones, and some of them are backups.  He has arm talent, and is a good athlete, but he just doesnt have what it takes to be a franchise QB, Oline or not.    The guy is responsible for an average of 1.75 turnovers a game since he came into the league.   You cant win like that when you arent scoring enough to make up for it.   Long term maybe he becomes a Tannehill type, but I think its more likely he ends up as a career backup.

Be open with it, don't hide your dislike for the kid!!  😄

 

All jokes aside, I don't think Jones is all that bad...
