Jets hired ex-Texans director of college scouting Mike Maccagnan as general manager.
Maccagnan has been viewed as the favorite to replace John Idzik for two weeks. He was the only one of seven candidates to be asked back for a second interview. Per NFL.com's Jeff Darlington, Maccagnan is considered a "true grinder" and "cerebral" in league circles. He has a reputation as an ace evaluator, but that's true of almost every man tabbed to be a general manager. In the NFL since 1994, Maccagnan had been with the Texans since 2000.
