The NFL is a tough business. From the players to the general managers, job security is always on a razor-thin line. While every offseason sees players, coaches and general managers get hired and fired, there are a few front office decisions that are a little odder than the rest.

We’ll start off with the most recent oddball decision and work our way backward through time.

Firing a general manager isn’t an unusual thing during the offseason. But usually, it happens quickly after the season and not following free agency, the draft and right before OTAs kick off. Yet the Jets decided to move on from Maccagnan in the middle of May.

It’s not a good look for a team that spent huge amounts of cap space on several high-profile free agents and six picks in the 2019 NFL draft, including the third-overall selection. What’s perhaps even odder is coach Adam Gase becomes the interim general manager because New York hasn’t found Maccagnan’s replacement yet.

Even if the Jets are able to find a good general manager, that person is going to have a roster filled with recent contracts and draft picks they might not like. Even the best case scenario could cause New York to extend their rebuilding period a few more years while they sort it all out.
