[Kansas City.com] Andy Reid is looking to his past to fill some key positions on the offensive side of the Chiefs coaching staff, a source close to the situation said.
Reid was talking to former Philadelphia assistant coaches Doug Pederson and Brad Childress about working for the Chiefs. Pederson, an Eagles assistant for the past four seasons, would be either the offensive coordinator or quarterbacks coach, perhaps both.
The role for Childress, a member of Reid’s staff for seven years earlier in his coaching career, was less certain but he wouldn’t serve as coordinator or quarterbacks coach.
The Chiefs have interviewed Ray Farmer and John Dorsey for the vacant general manager’s position.
Farmer, 38, is the Chiefs’ director of pro personnel. Dorsey, 52, is Green Bay’s director of college scouting.
Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt and Reid have been conducting the interviews with general manager candidates. Both have said Hunt will make the decision on which candidate the Chiefs would hire.
The problem is they are taking or looking for someone that is already in the system. Select me I would make this franchise flourish. I would put the Chiefs in the Superbowl. I would get the QB that would make the chiefs the powerhouse that they once where. The best part -Iw ould only ask for 100k a year, 100k for making the playoffs the first year and 100k for every consecutive playoff showing. Not to exclude 75k for every playoff win,100k bonus for superbowl – 1 million for the win.
Who says Tyler Wilson wont be a good QB
Draft – I would sell the 4k point draft pick to get more draft picks.
Then select Luke Joeckel OT/ Monte Te’o ILB if he is available
Second Round – Robert Woods WR/ and Justin Hunter if you sell the first round pick
Third Round – Tyler Wilson or Mike Glennon whoever is available/ and Desmond Trufant CB
Rest of the draft shore up the offensive line that was offensive this year
New Orleans Gm salary is 3.8 million see easy solution
Then get a QB in the free agency that would be mobile and can throw….
Next year if you can get Johnny Manziel,
