32EBoozer Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 hope they can help us find some gems!! New York Jets announce nine-man college scouting staff Rich Cimini, ESPN Staff Writer New York Jets general manager Mike Maccagnan, continuing his offseason makeover, announced his nine-man college scouting staff on Tuesday -- and it included only two holdovers from the previous regime. You won't recognize any of the names, but college scouts are the anonymous stars in every great organization. Maccagnan wanted to surround himself with his people, so he blew up the previous scouting staff even though it contributed to what was widely heralded as a successful draft. The holdovers are Jay Mandolesi, who will scout the Southeast region, and Johnathon Stigall, who will handle the Midwest. Here's a listing of the new scouts, followed by their area and past employers: National scouts: Lee Gissendaner (East Coast) -- Green Bay Packers Jim Jauch (West Coast) -- San Diego Chargers Zach Truty (Central) -- Chicago Bears Area scouts: Xavier Adibi (Plains) -- Kansas City Chiefs Bill Dekraker (Northeast) -- Dallas Cowboys, Washington Redskins, Carolina Panthers and Arizona Cardinals. Dom Green (Southwest) -- Chiefs, Tampa Bay Buccaneers Brian Shields (West Coast) -- St. Louis Rams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas2No99 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Wasn't Xavier Adibi a LB a few years back from SC drafted by Houston? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljr Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I like the fact that this is Big Mac's area of expertise ... And he came right in and took the bull by the horns! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity28 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Between the roster rebuild and entire player personnel department overhaul, gotta figure Mac is an early favorite for exec of the year. Just based on how much he did since being hired. Getting results will just make it a lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbatesman Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Wow, a list of names and their areas and past employers? It's this kind of vital inside info that gets Richie the big bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Wow, a list of names and their areas and past employers? It's this kind of vital inside info that gets Richie the big bucks. I do kind of like the fact that they all came from different places. It seems too often these guys raid wherever they come from and people follow them around. Bowles in particular seems to be friendly and respected by everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutgersJetFan Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Johnathon Stigall I find the way that this guy spells his name incredibly annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drdetroit Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Probably the most significant change of the offseason after replacing Dumbzik with Macagnan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Probably the most significant change of the offseason after replacing Dumbzik with Macagnan. Poor Idzik. Out of work before the masses could even agree on a derogatory nickname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 The name Jim Jauch brings back fond memories, his father Ray was a coach in the CFL for the team I cheer for Edmonton Eskimos and he turned around a team that had been sad sack for years and built them into a Grey Cup winner.
