I think you might have missed the point of the article. I too have a great deal of respect for Ernie Accorsi and go along with the fact that the HC and GM has to have a very solid relationship. I think what Grossi was going was that he would have liked to see Reese brought in as President or VP of football operations. I don't know maybe the other two guys would not have like that but Reese has an awful lot of football/business knowledge.
When I was reading articles before they signed Mangini most successful NFL teams have a VP of football operations or someone with a similar title along with a GM and coach. If not Reese, I would have liked to see them bring in someone with football knowledge to oversee the entire organization.
