The NFL’s Week 16 Overreaction Index: The most attractive general manager positions

There are general manager openings in Jacksonville, Detroit, Atlanta and more. What is the best situation in the NFL for the next hire?

“Black Monday” is coming in the NFL. That day of the football season when coaches, general managers and more are handed the one gift no one asks for for the holidays: A pink slip.

We cannot prevent the inevitable, but we can start thinking about some of those jobs that are going to be open come January. There are a number of general manager positions available, and a few that we believe will become available when the season is over. What are these potential GMs walking into? That is what we will examine in this piece, looking at the attractiveness of each expected GM landing spot.

If you’d like to read about the potential candidates for any of these jobs, I strongly recommend this piece from Dan Hatman on that very topic.
