Who would you like to see the team hire from the list of candidates and why? I think I would go with Marc Ross because of the success the Giants have had in recent years. Even though they fell on their face last year I think they've done a good job with the draft.

(Not really. Just couldn't resist. :lol: )
 
Marc Ross. I do not think he will get it, but I think he should get a chance.
 
I haven't had time to go through all the announced candidates in detail, but my initial list of favorites would be in order (I'm leaving Gamble out because I don't consider him a possibility anymore, but he would be #1):

1. Ray Farmer
2. Alonzo Highsmith
3. Marc Ross
4. Jason Licht
5. Lake Dawson
6. Lionel Vital
7. Omar Khan
8. Brian Gaine

and at the end of the day when you look at that list you realize that it's an impressive initial list.
 
Of the 5 announced I would put Ray Farmer at the top of the list.
 
Browns fans seem to love Ray Farmer and are afraid of losing him.

I think Highsmith is a legit candidate due to his connection with Philbin and the fact that the team has gone out of its way to state that it wants someone with a scouting background and who can work well within the existing organizational structure.

The two reasons he intrigues me are:

1. I think he would be more inclined to tap that South Florida pipeline of pro talent. He's from the U, he understands what we're missing out on.
2. Between the end of his NFL career and the start of his scouting career, he was a heavyweight boxer. Pretty good one. 27-1-2. In my own life, I've found that people who have diverse life experience often bring a lot of hidden assets to the table. Blows to the head might be a concern, though. :lol:
