Well worth the time to read the whole thing thoroughly. Thanks Tribal Warfare. I'm not a big Jimmy Raye fan out in SD and don't know much about the guy from Seattle, but I really like Mark Ross from the Giants. Perhaps I'll be wrong, but I'd imagine a new GM will want to bring in his own guy and Herm hasn't accomplished enough here in KC to merit Clark standing in the way. I simply interpret Clark's tone and words in his interviews as a man who is ready to make this franchise truly his own. The arrowheadpride.com is fantastic.

And KC is more attractive to a lot of them. Carl Petersons tenure was 20years without a change. I know I would like to know where my paycheck was coming from for the next 20years. Your right KC isnt the "It" job. However they are more stable than any of the other jobs out there. And the way Clark was talking he is willing to pay for the right one. Colby he said he will have the new GM evaluate Herm before he makes a decision. The 1 or 2 million is a mute point to make a point-B in Sc. And KC is more attractive to a lot of them.

Maybe not immediately following our last game as Clark seems cool headed enough to take a few days to think about it, but certainly before he makes his move on a GM. Clark didn't do much to endorse Edwards this week and since he made it a point to say he wanted a fresh set of eyes from outside of the organization, I'd think that would extend to the coaches and scouts as well. As much as I love to watch the Chiefs, even this year's smelly team, I can't wait to get these last two meaningless games over with so we can get on with our fan lives with a new GM.

The Browns job will probably be open and have these qualities: 1) Vacant coaching staff (no decision to fire) 2) Franchise QB, TE, WR, KR, and other good young players 3) High draft position 4) Excellent facilities Not that I think the Cleveland job is necessarily better, but to say KC is the "it" job, is crazy. With the right GM and coach, the Browns could easily rebuild like we are doing. Just to make a point about competition for candidates…

To say that it is so attractive that anyone would take it even with restrictions is a bit naive. The top tier candidates won't even listen if the job comes with restrictions up front. They don't have to. Yep, Hunt said the final decision to retain or release Herm was his, but it is always that way. The person who signs the checks always has the final say. By saying it the way he did, he released the new GM from pressure if he decided to let Edwards go. It technically wouldn't have been his decison. A guy like Pioli will have plenty of options. If Clark is interested in him, he couldn't set a bunch of ground rules. The guy has turned down GM opportunities in the past. 1 or 2 million a year? So? The top guys will name their price. I think he has a pretty good gig in NE. To get him, it would have to be on his terms. The important thing is that the next GM be on the same page as Hunt. Everything else is details. We just started the rebuild so if the direction were to change, now is the time. KC is not the only opening in the NFL.

My words for them are egotistical blow hards. Kansas City is one of the premier locals for a new GM. And Clark did say the new GM would have to evaluate Herm and then they would make a decision on him. The only thing the new GM wouldnt like is that Clark said the final decision whether to let herm go was his. Now, if you were offered a million or 2 million dollars a year to be a GM of this franchise wouldnt you take it even if their were restraints. I know you hate herm and know what your evaluation would be too. That is why Clark is going outside of the chiefs and KC to hire a GM. I really hope they go with Scott Pioli Tm-we know that most of the national media just say stuff to make people think they know what they are talking about.

The new GM may keep herm but not if he has his own plan in mind. It could actually interesting what happens, rebuild on the rebuild with a group of young fire eating coaches with a fresh approach to the game.
