We need a personnel guy, not a cap guy.

+1
Signing a guy who's strength is on the business side of things is a bad sign, IMHO.

If Bradway is still here, he's the personnel guy. He was while Tanny was here too.

Khan, Whisenhunt, bring Russ Grimm in to coach the OL, maybe floor the Jet world and hire Russ Grimm or Whisenhunt as HC...chase the Ferentz maybe...This is the path I would like, but we will see what Korn/Ferry advises.
Khan interviewed with the Rams last year. They said no and subsequently hired Les Snead and put Brian Schottenheimer on their coaching staff, so what does THAT tell you?
A little iffy on whether he is a Football Man.

Nice passive aggressive swipe at Tanny there.

Jets interviewing Omar Khan for G.M. job
Posted by Mike Florio on January 9, 2013, 9:31 PM EST
The Jets ultimately could be replacing Mike Tannenbaum with another Mike Tannenbaum.
The recently-fired G.M. rose through the ranks as a cap-and-contracts specialist. Now that the Jets are having trouble replacing Tannenbaum with a traditional “football guy,” they’re turning their attention to another cap-and-contracts specialist.
Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports that the Jets will interview Omar Khan for the G.M. position on Thursday. Khan currently serves as the director of football and business administration in Pittsburgh.
As the search expands, there’s a chance that the eventual hire will have less power than previously envisioned, with coach Rex Ryan in turn having greater authority over player personnel.
If, alternatively, Khan would have final say over the draft and free agency, he would need to rely on someone like Terry Bradway to help set the table, like Bradway did for Tannenbaum

Agreed. We culd stand to do a lot worse than running our org a little like the Steelers. I would LOVE to have someone from that well run franchise.You guy's want a candidate from a wining organization here you go...
Why must the Jets make it possible for me to be ridiculed at work EVERY SINGLE YEAR??????

We raid the Steelers and come up with...their Tannenbaum. Korn/Ferry, you've done it again.
The alternative was the other guy you didn't like for lack of experience.

BTW, the last guy named Omar to be a GM in New York didn't have a happy ending (yeah, I left that wide open).
There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

It's a free-for-all at this point. They're going to interview everybody who agrees to be interviewed and hire the guy that puts up the least resistance when told that Rex is in charge.
