INDIANAPOLIS – Giants general manager Dave Gettleman admits he is “spoiled as hell” when it comes to working for organizations with big-time quarterbacks.
“Are you kidding me?” he said Wednesday at the NFL's annual Scouting Combine. “[Jim] Kelly, [John] Elway, [Eli] Manning, Cam Newton. Not bad, huh?”
Not bad at all, especially for an NFL executive who has gone to and won Super Bowls on the backs of those Hall of Fame caliber passers. The one thing Gettleman hasn’t done: draft one of those franchise quarterbacks.
Now it’s time to see whether the GM has what it takes to find a quarterback to lead the Giants in the coming years.
