notthatbluestuff Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 https://ftw.usatoday.com/lists/2020-nfl-gm-rankings-bill-belichick-patriots Interesting list has them: 32. Bill O'Brien (Texans) 31. Ron Rivera (Washington) 30. Bob Quinn (Lions) 29. Dave Gettleman (Giants) 28. Jason Licht (Buccaneers) 27. Ryan Pace (Bears) 26. Mike Mayock (Raiders) 25. David Caldwell (Jaguars) 24. Marty Hurney (Panthers) 23. Steve Keim (Cardinals) 22. Joe Douglas (Jets) 21. Andrew Berry (Browns) 20. Chris Grier (Dolphins) 19. Mike Brown/Duke Tobin (Bengals) 18. Brian Gutekunst (Packers) 17. Jon Robinson (Titans) 16. Les Snead (Rams) 15. John Elway (Broncos) 14. Thomas Dimitroff (Falcons) 13. Rick Spielman (Vikings) 12. Tom Telesco (Chargers) 11. John Lynch (49ers) 10. Brett Veach (Chiefs) 9. Jerry Jones/Stephen Jones (Cowboys) 8. Brandon Beane (Bills) 7. Chris Ballard (Colts) 6. John Schneider (Seahawks) 5. Mickey Loomis (Saints) 4. Howie Roseman (Eagles) 3. Eric DeCosta (Ravens) 2. Kevin Colbert (Steelers) 1. Bill Belichick (Patriots) Written explanations can be found in article itself - though some don't necessarily make a lot of sense when compared with ranking placements. For example, they were a lot harsher on Dimitroff than Elway yet the former is ranked higher. How would your lists be different? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TitanSlim Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Look at our team roster and where the team was before 2016 and where it’s at now. There’s no way Jon Robinson is in the bottom half of GMs in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does all the drafting/player stuff. Stephen does the contracts - which I think have been a mixed bag. Jerry is just a spokesman/media guy at this point for the most part. Its been that way for 10 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could definitely bounce back up, but 4 is just overrating him at this moment in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd put the Cowboys FO above John Schneider I think. Definitely a top 10 front office as much as it pains me to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still probably have him land in the top 10 probably and top 15 at the worst, but #4 seems a bit rich with some of our drafting, the Alshon restructure, not doing a good job addressing LB/CB (until this offseason), etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveTheVikings Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 For the Vikings that's about right. Rick isn't bad but he isn't great either. Probably could use a few bumps up though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the guy who traded a 1st rounder for Sam Bradford. 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've only had 2 losing seasons since he took over in 2012 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
