Florio says we're "leaning" towards Dave Gettleman

as long as he brings in a top notch scouting staff i think he's qualified enough, and i care about that far more than age

Then you better hope JR opens his wallet to employ said scouting staff... Because in the past, he hasn't. For years we have had one of the smaller scouting staffs in the league... esp on the pro side.

Thought it was interesting when I was reading over on a Giants forum some are more worried to lose Gettleman. Lots of people saying he is the cap manager too.

After dealing with some of the assclown Giant fans at BofA earlier this season, I wouldn't trust a word that comes out of their loud mouths. Bloviating idiots.

Best policy.

Anything else is futile, really.

JR plays everything so close to the vest no one has a clue.

i used to have this teacher that was pretty old who would try and pretend he was reading a book but still keep an eye on everyone one and without fail one of two things would happen...he'd get interested in what he was pretending to read and not look up again or he'd fall asleep and drool all over himself.

moral is, sometimes it may look like someone is holding the cards close to his vest but he really might be asleep or in lala land.

just something to think about.

If Ross insists on picking his own coach, he's severely limiting his options. The only teams meeting that criteria are Arizona, San Diego, and (possibly) Jacksonville if they'll fire Malarky.

If he comes here and Rivera has one more year, that's win/win for him. If Rivera loses, then he's fired and Ross gets to hire his own staff. But if Rivera wins, Ross gets some credit for fixing things.

Unless Ross & Perry Fewell are in cahoots.

I think it's the bandwagoners that are worse than anybody. Die hard fans usually aren't massive dicks because they love the game. And they also know what it's like to have a shitty season.

little more on gettleman

The Giants have shuffled the deck at the top of their pro personnel department. Dave Gettleman is going from director of pro personnel to senior pro personnel analyst while his former assistant, Ken Sternfeld, has been named the new director of pro personnel.

Effectively, the change means Gettleman will no longer be traveling for scouting purposes.

“My role moving forward will be strictly player evaluation,” he said in a team release. “Once the season begins, my first responsibility will be to get all the practice squad guys [in the NFL] graded. From there we'll start working on unrestricted free agents. It's a little bit of a restructuring in the way the pro personnel department operates. I thought at this point in my career it was time to take a step back and re-evaluate. We've been very successful.”

Gettleman served as director of pro personnel since 1999 and was assisted by Sternfeld for the last 10 seasons.

“Dave has been a great mentor for myself and Kenny,” said general manager Jerry Reese, another of Gettleman's former assistants. “He is a true professional that knows the business and he has the Super Bowl rings to back it up.”

Gettleman has been involved with six Super Bowl teams, three of which won a Lombardi Trophy* (Buffalo Bills 1990-1991, Denver Broncos 1997* and the Giants in 2000, 2007* and 2011*).

Sternfeld was a jack-of-all trades with the New England Patriots before joining the Giants in May of 2012, primarily working in the scouting department. He also has over 20 years of pro and college scouting experience.

      The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.

      If the Canes don't bring back Tyson Jost or Jack Roslovic, is Tanner Jeannot an option? https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2025/06/senators-expected-to-show-interest-in-tanner-jeannot.html
