Put Jason in charge of socks and jocks so Jerry won't have to worry about that stuff.

McClay is very overrated.
Look at our last 3-4 years top picks.

Look at Maher lasting most of the year.

The only thing McClay did was add more organization to a chaotic field which is the only thing Jason is good at.
Lateral move.

I disagree. McClay's work has resulted in a competitive team even in the absence of quality coaching from the coaching staff and football leadership from the GM. He's effectively neutered Jerry on draft day, even though he hasn't been 100% successful (And usually misses when they turn to the coaches for answers).

The fact that he's been as successful as he has with Garrett and Jerry on the team says a lot about him.

It says he's organized, which they have been lacking, and a strong voice in the draft room, which Jason would obviously give.

Lateral move.

And I'm not even advocating this!

For sure he would. Maybe he makes McClay GM and JG right under him. Of course neither has any power.

and i would still leave the club if i was McClay., regardless if Garrett is under me.
if Jones really believes in McClay you let him decide and choose his own staff instead of forcing Garrett upon him.
and you watch the drafting process really go downhill if Garrett takes over McClay's role !!

If you've ever watched the draft day camera, you'd know that Garrett offers very little to the proceedings outside of making the final phone call. He literally sits there and makes small talk with Charlotte the entire time.

McClay is the one they all turn to when it comes to decision making.

Garrett is a figurehead. And in the GM role, absent a McClay, he would just tell Jerry what he wants to hear.

Any position that gives Garrett any actual authority over anyone else is a complete and total waste of time. What coach is going to come here knowing the owner's pet whose job he took will be watching over him with a suspect eye?

Yup. Not his position and he plays his position well.
I never said JG is skeezing on McClay's job, BTW.

I'm saying lateral move.
