Ted Thompson

2. Reggie McKenzie

3. John Dorsey

No offense, but not exactly the greatest hire for me. Same opinion with Andy Reid hiring his pals from Philly. I’d ask Eagles fans what they think…they know better than any Chiefs fan with rose colored glasses on right now. Very similar to Pioli with latest reactions, I’ll believe a turn around when I see it

The HC and the GM report to Hunt. The GM will have final say, but obviously the HC will be a major player before the final say.

Dorsey has been on the scouting side a lot longer than he’s been the dir of football operations.

Good hire, hopefully we draft the best players we can at each pick.

Not sure how successful this will be if Andy Reid has final say on everything.

Heckert was a guy he molded in Philly, but now he’s bringing in one of “his guys” to pick players….

Pioli would have taken so ja who would amount to nothing. (See tyson jackson, jon baldwin)

I am glad they didn’t hire another pioli. Welcome to the chiefs john dorsey. Let’s win together.

You take a position that is suppose to be mgnt and normally would have final say in decisions but in reality you may be a puppet. If there aren’t significant improvements it will be the “GM” that goes not the coach. If this happens would he be harming himself by taking a meaningless job?

What this decision tells me is that Andy Reid will be making all the player decisions. Not sure if that’s a good thing …

At this point Reid should concentrate more on X’s and O’s, and less on running “football operations”. That’s why the Eagles are looking for a new coach now.

But they did say that Andy Reid will be part of all convo’s before the Final say is made

Reminds you of the Final Say that Scott Pioli and Carl Peterson used to have.

Let’s hope he and Reid don’t reach for a qb. That joeckel kid would be a good pick right now.

Also, I applaud Hunt for not just hiring Andy’s BFF Heckert…for the good of the org it’s probably best that the two guys that report directly to Hunt aren’t BFFs.
