Eventually Joe Schoen’s Giants will need play games. And those are unlikely to go well, at least in the beginning. That said, the general manager continues to build equity to help weather those anticipated storms.
The Schoen lovefest rolled on Monday when he fired two front office holdovers from the Dave Gettleman era. Director of college scouting Chris Pettit and senior personnel executive Kyle O’Brien got the sack two days after what Schoen’s well-received first NFL draft at the helm. Pettit had been with the team in various roles for almost two decades dating back to the Ernie Accorsi era; O’Brien was a recent Joe Judge-driven arrival.
