The Facts:
The Jets’ search for a new general manager has come to an end. The team announced Friday that they have tabbed John Idzik as the replacement for Mike Tannenbaum.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Idzik has been with the Seahawks since 2007 and currently holds the title of vice president of football administration. His responsibilities include overseeing the team’s contract negotiations and compliance with the salary cap as well as dealing with all football operations budgets. As PFT notes, that paints Idzik as a cap guy, similar to Tannenbaum, although Idzik has also been involved with player personnel decisions during his time with Seattle. The Jets have said that their next general manager will have final say on those kinds of decisions, but Idzik’s background suggests coach Rex Ryan will also be taking on a big role on that end.
