RUMORS MOUNT OF PIOLI TO CHIEFS

Posted by Mike Florio on January 8, 2009, 1:24 p.m.

We continue to be flooded with e-mails from folks who claim that Pats V.P. of player personnel Scott Pioli soon will be introduced as the new G.M. of the Kansas City Chiefs.

Though it’s our general understanding that these reports are premature at best, the tight lid that the Chiefs have kept on the situation makes it very hard to know precisely what in the hell is going on out there.

Len Dawson, formerly of the Chiefs and currently of KMBC-TV in Kansas City, generally cites “reports around the country” indicating that Pioli will be hired by the Chiefs before pointing out only the Eagle Tribune (your guess is as good as ours . . . actually, it’s in North Andover, Massachusetts) in support of the notion that the deal is done, and that the only step remaining is for Pioli to sign the contract.

Also, 610 Sports radio in Kansas City reported on Wednesday that the Chiefs have offered the G.M. job to Pioli.

Still, neither the Chiefs nor Pioli have said anything about the situation.
Other candidates are believed to be Mark Dominik of the Buccaneers and Jimmy Raye of the Chargers.

I think Denver should have jumped all over trying to get him.

The word on the streets up here is....a deal has been reached and will be announced soon. Take that for what's it's worth. Pioli's wife is from my home town.

Smart move by the Chiefs if true. Now they need to get rid of Herm.

Which Pioli will do. Wouldn't be surprised if McDaniels came with Pioli to KC.
