The quotes I've got from co-workers and those who know Joe Schoen around the league:
— Jordan Raanan (@JordanRaanan) January 21, 2022
"Really smart."
"Dude is gonna outwork you." "Earned keep."
"Straight-forward."
"Great communicator."
"Well-rounded."
"Home run."
#Giants got a good one in new GM Joe Schoen. Well-respected around the league. Started at the bottom and worked his way up the right way. Saw him at South Alabama/Coastal Carolina game the day after Thanksgiving trying to find players. No doubt heβs prepared for this job.

Buffalo will not be the same without the Schoen family! β€οΈπ #BillsMafia pic.twitter.com/QdyfiRHvc4
The Bills failed to make the playoffs 17 straight years before Beane and Schoen arrived in Buffalo in 2017. Since then Bills have been in playoffs 4/5 years and are still alive in this year's field.

That's the kind of turnaround the Giants want.
Joe Schoen calls it "an honor'' to be named GM of the Giants.

Many impressed by his versatile background in college AND pro scouting, diligent, steady.
Seems like New York got a good one.
Giants thought their 3 finalists for the GM job were all excellent.

Joe Schoen just a little more excellent in their minds.
