Reliable Source: Joe Douglas to the Jets is in a bag

Everything else you are seeing; interviews et al., is all for show ... Joe Douglas as GM of the Jets is a done deal.

I'd rather not mention the source, but I don't say 'reliable' unless I really mean it.

For example, he was the first to reveal that Mac was out after free agent and the draft. Beat writers, ESPN, NFLN, he beat them all to the punch.

You also thought Josh Jacobs was going top 5.

Your such a PARTY POPPER TCT!!! Thanks Ham for the insight and hopefully this is the case!

I love giving Ham shit. Also you obviously haven't been reading how positive I've been since Mac was canned.

If true, very interesting. Would he bring in Jeremiah to be the Director of Player Personnel?

I have but I took those comments as being sarcastic and not optimistic.

Nah, I'm pretty happy with Gase and the attitude he brings. I think he will change the culture which might fail, but I think he will turn this around soon. We might still be 8-8, but I think we will take steps finally to turn this around.

Sirius NFL radio just now reporting Joe Douglas and George Paton are withdrawing, apparently due to not having control over the 53.

Wait, what?????

Why is the GM not going to have control over the 53 man roster?

Heard it on Sirius NFL Radio as I posted it - Mark Dominik said it on his show with Bruce Murray (Sirius XM Blitz).

I just saw a post from Albert Breer 2 hours ago that says that Douglas is interviewing on Sunday. isired - your post makes no sense.

NFL guys on Sirius have been saying since Macc was fired that if your HC fires the GM and hires the new one, he's the boss. Most were dubious that they'd land anyone that was in line for a GM job in that situation.

Could be Dominik has it wrong, but he said it. I thought maybe I heard wrong but he went on for a few sentences elaborating about how Douglas has a good position as Howie Roseman's right-hand man, and Paton similarly with Spielman, and leaving that without control of the 53 man roster might not be attractive.

Nobody else has posted anything about Douglas being out. I would think that someone else would have it by now.
