    Mike Florio reports the Jets are targeting Peyton Manning for their GM job.

    Jets CEO and chairman Christopher Johnson wants a “great strategic thinker” to run the football operation. He needs someone who can work with coach Adam Gase. And at the intersection possibly resides one and only one name.

    Peyton Manning.

    Rumors are flying within league circles that the Jets may make a run at the future Hall of Fame quarterback who has periodically been linked to NFL management possibilities. And Gase, who worked with Manning in Denver, possibly would be one of the few guys who could draw Manning back into football.

    Manning wouldn’t be a traditional G.M., but Johnson has made it clear that he’s not looking for a traditional G.M.

    “It’s more than a talent-evaluation guy,” Johnson said Wednesday. “I want a great manager, a communicator, who can collaborate well with the building. I’m convinced we’re going to find that person.”

    Now that's interesting. I'd say he'd do a better job than Elway.

    Even a guy like Phil Simms or Boomer Esiason wouldn’t be bad choices. They need someone who has a smart football head, knows how to watch tape and knows how a football team works on and off field.

    Ok, Maybe....But why would Manning go be GM for the Jets? His brother is a Giant for one thing.(That actually means something to the Mannings) Of all the teams that could use his "guidance" I see the Jets as waaaaay down the list of teams on his list. Does this 'feel' like a match to anybody else? I just don't see it.
