Harbaugh's Draft Success Stabilizes Schoen's GM Role

About this episode

John Harbaughs arrival as Giants coach marked a pivotal moment for GM Joe Schoen, who faced a make-or-break offseason. Despite a rough record, Schoen secured a solid draft haul, including two top-ten picks, and reshaped the roster with five ex-Ravens players. However, the team lost some of Schoens past draft gems and faced controversy with Dexter Lawrences trade demand. Despite rumors of Schoens departure, Harbaughs public praise and strong draft grades suggest Schoens job is secure for now.

It's April 27. This is NFL News Today, your AI-powered source for everything, NFL. John Harbott took over as Giants coach back in January with no real history alongside GM Joe Showin' who had posted a rough 22 wins, 45 losses, and one tie over four years. The offseason turned into a make or break stretch for Shone, wrapping up Saturday with a solid 7-player draft haul, including two top 10 picks. The team dropped $173 million in free agency, ranking 8th league-wide, to reshape the roster around Harbott's style, snagging five X Ravens players. They lost some of Showin's past draft gems to big deals elsewhere, and things got messy with trading star defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence after his, trade demand blew up. League Insiders and Agents buzzed all offseason about Showin' sticking around post-Harbaugh higher, especially after that down 2025 season. But Harbott kept praising the GM publicly, highlighting his draft savvy on moves like trading up for a wide receiver in Round 3.

No signs point to Showin' getting the boo right now, even with precedents like post-draft firings in Buffalo, and with the jets. He's in the last year of his five-year deal from 2022, and while an extension makes sense, ownership could just let him run it out as a, lame duck while eyeing BP Don Aponte as a possible replacement. While Stronghand might actually steady things, letting Showin' focus on scouting like successful GMs under powerhouse coaches. Draftgrades came back strong with all A's, setting positive vibes as Showin' awaits his true verdict on the field.
