Longtime Ravens personnel man reportedly joining New York Jets

Former Ravens scout Joe Douglas has turned to his roots to begin filling out his front office as the new general manager of the New York Jets.
According to NFL Network, Douglas is hiring Baltimore assistant director of pro and college personnel Chad Alexander to be his director of player personnel. Alexander, 44, has worked for the Ravens since 1999 — the year before Douglas joined the organization with which he spent 15 years — and has served in roles ranging from pro personnel assistant and area scout to assistant director of pro personnel. Earlier this offseason, first-year general manager Eric DeCosta promoted Alexander to his current title, which entailed working with co-directors of player personnel Joe Hortiz and George Kokinis as a scouting administrator and chief evaluator of college and pro prospects.
Alexander served as Baltimore’s assistant director of player personnel for 10 years, a position that consisted of evaluating NFL talent, providing advance scouting reports on opponents for the coaching staff, and assisting with free-agent workouts. He spent six years as a college area scout, covering three different regions for the Ravens over that time.
Douglas, who was most recently serving as Philadelphia’s vice president of player personnel, is also expected to hire former Baltimore director of college scouting Phil Savage.
