Thanks for posting.
To be honest Riddick didn’t shed light on anything at all. Lame article on his and the authors part

I think it was positive to hear how Riddick felt about Mara and that he didn't feel the need to blow smoke up JM's keyster about Eli.

Interesting. I thought his comments were fair and I frankly would have been happy if they chose him.

I get the feeling the Giants went with the guy who gave them the warm and fuzzy feeling...didn’t want to upset the apple cart (for some reason). Not that that will end up being the wrong choice. Hopefully Riddick is available and gets consideration next time around...DG is no spring chicken. |

In my honest opinion the only reason they brought Riddick in for an interview was to comply with the Rooney rule. I think they were going with DG regardless. That's not to say Riddick isn't a worthy candidate for the role but I truly believe they already had their mind made up and were just checking off the Rooney rule box.

And if the Gettleman tenure is a success then I can’t blame them. Not sure how Abrams is in terms of talent evaluator but he would certainly fit the bill in terms of being a manager (plus his expertise in contracts). I would expect the head scout to have a lot more power u see Abrams...unless there is a significant history that Abrams has as a talent guy that I’m not aware of. But if there is ever a reason to seek outside help I would hope Riddick is available and that he gets the call. |

You might be right but Riddick's comments suggest otherwise. And while I know the NFL means well with the Rooney rule, people can always question the authenticity of the owner.
