Other candidates for the GM job reportedly included: New York Giants director of college scouting Marc Ross, Falcons director of player personnel Les Snead, Falcons director of college scouting David Caldwell, Cowboys director of scouting Tom Ciskowski, Monteal Alouettes GM Jim Popp and Colts director of player personnel Tom Telesco.
