Remember when JR hired him to consult on our next GM hire and we ended up choosing between two guys from the Giants organization? There was a younger guy that was good with the salary cap and an older guy that did mostly player evaluations IIRC. We took the older guy and have won a division title every year since.

 

Well now the Chicago Bears have hired Ernie Accorsi to consult on their next GM hire. I wonder if Ernie's going to steer them toward the younger guy we didn't choose. If they do choose him, it will be interesting to compare his GM capabilities to Dave Gettleman over the next few years.

FYI/FWIW: Not sure if he had the title before/at the time of GMan's hiring here, but Mark Ross is VP of Player Evaluation at the Giants.

He didn't.

They promoted him because they know he gets a lot of attention.

They have 2 Super Bowls since 2007. I'm going to go out on a limb and say they are definitely not jealous of us.

How have they looked the past few seasons?

Better history? Sure.

Better right now? Not so much.

      The Cavalry is Coming

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction

      Better than a fragile starter, though
