Since a lot of people have mentioned his name as a GM canidate I thought I'd recap his draft record. Bold are quality picks, regular text is depth/backup players, grey is an outright bust. The last two drafts it's really too early to tell on many of them.

I like Ross' potential as a GM. I would be fantastic to get some young blood in the front office for a change. Considering where the Giants usually pick, (middle to bottom of the draft) I think his drafts are pretty damn good.

Baltimore's DeCosta is a better drafter, but would be much too hard to pry from the Raven's.

Ross has definitely hit on some good players. Don't forget about Victor Cruz.

What do you think signifies "keeping it real"? The senseless OP creation you're noted for? Homophobia? Your hack forum handle?

What in your feeble little mind makes you think people should be grateful for the opinionated, uninformed, flip-flopping horseshit that you post on a daily basis?

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
