Giants General Manager Dave Gettleman’s decision to draft quarterback Daniel Jones with the sixth overall pick has come in for a lot of
criticism over the last few days and he’s defended his choice by saying that he
knows that at least two other teams were ready to pick Jones before the Giants
would be back on the board at No. 17.That feeling has been rebuffed by
others
Kerry Wynn Jersey , including Peter King in . King spoke to Gettleman for that column and Gettleman pushed back at critics by doing something he did ahead of
the draft as well. He’s pointing to his history of being involved in successful
organizations and lamenting the lack of patience others are showing for his
rebuilding effort.“The bottom line is, I have confidence in what I do and who I
am,” Gettleman said. “I’ve been a part of organizations that had pretty good
quarterbacks — Jim Kelly, John Elway, Kerry Collins, Eli Manning
http://www.giantslockerroom.com/authentic-will-hernandez-jersey , Cam Newton. … I’ve been a part of teams that went to seven Super Bowls. I had a
hand in some of them. But today, there’s no patience. And there’s no room for
civil discourse in our society, which I find sad.”Gettleman and the Giants spent
the last few months telling anyone who asked that Manning is still a high level
quarterback who just needed a better supporting cast in order to return the team
to a winning record. The Jones pick sent a different message and didn’t provide
that help to Manning, which is a reversal of course that is always going to lead
to the kind of response that we’ve seen since Thursday night.The list of
quarterbacks above were not taken when Gettleman was in the top job and their
selection didn’t leave him in the spotlight the way that the Jones pick will.
Gettleman told King that “we’ll find out how crazy I am” in three years and
we’ll see if the Giants are that patient if their 8-24 record over the last two
years proves more telling of the future than Gettleman’s more distant past.
