New York Giants fans, like those of all NFL teams, tend to think that the most important sign of good general managers is that they “hit” on draft picks, even though drafting is only one of their duties. No one ever defines what “hit” means exactly, but in general fans tend to think of players who are in the upper echelon at their position, make Pro Bowls or All-Pro, help win championships, etc., as “hits.” You’ll see a lot of “Joe Schoen needs to hit on most of his picks in this draft” comments by Giants fans on social media.
Can a general manager hit on most of his draft picks?
