And not just coach and GM , quoting the article
It’s difficult to conclude that anything close to “wholesale changes” were made two years ago when reviewing the continuity in the front office.
In 2017, the four names listed under Football Operations in the Giants media guide were Reese, assistant general manager Kevin Abrams, vice president of player evaluation Marc Ross and director of pro personnel Ken Sternfeld. Aside from the GM switch, the only change to that group is that Ross was fired and Mark Koncz, who worked with Gettleman in Carolina, was hired as director of player personnel. Abrams and Sternfeld have been with the Giants for a combined 39 seasons.
Of the 17 people listed in the Player Personnel and Scouting department in the 2017 media guide, 15 remain. There have been four additions, as the group has grown to 19 members, and there have been some title changes, most notably Chris Pettit’s promotion from scout to director of college scouting. And then there’s Mara’s brother, Chris, who is listed under Ownership with the title of senior vice president of player personnel.

The league, I think to its detriment, at many levels is geared toward people hiring people that they know or have worked with or think there’s trust or mutual loyalty, as opposed to just doing an honest, from-scratch search for who’s the best possible person out there,” Banner said. “There are so few right people for the job – by that I mean head coaches or GMs that have long-term sustained success. If you’re messing with the purity of the process in any way, you’re reducing even further your chances of picking the right people when we all know picking the right people is actually extremely hard and there aren’t enough really good ones to go around.”
They spent $40 million between Tate, Ogletree and Manning,” Banner said. “They spent that on those three guys to win three games. Imagine if they had $40 million more to go into this offseason. There’s a lot of basis to make a decision and project what the future is likely to be with Dave. “You need to maximize your assets. Your assets are basically your draft picks and your cap room,” Banner said. “The Alec Ogletrees and Tates and Mannings, and trading away draft picks, and using up picks in the supplemental draft, and using up picks to trade for players that are about to be a free agent – are you maximizing the use of your assets? Because if the answer to that is no too often, I don’t care who you are, you’re not going to succeed. If the answer to that is occasionally no, then that’s everybody. The best GMs in the league are sometimes getting it wrong.
“You just have to look at the package of decisions, of which there have been a large quantity over two years, and say, ‘I think I’ve got enough information here to decide he’s not the answer, or he is the answer and we just think he needs more time.’ My point is that although generally two years would seem a little short for a GM, because of the quantity and significance of the decisions they’ve made over two years, I think they have enough information to evaluate him.”
