buttt...
REID DOESN'T WANT TO BE THE GM. Veach is the likely replacement and is very well respected as a potential GM in the league. He may be Reid's guy, but he may be the right guy.

FOR THE REAL RECORD
Andy was the executive vice president of football operations in Philly from 2001 to 2012, until the very end of his tenure there.
That means, he WAS THE GMs BOSS, the GM in Philly reported to him. Basically making him the GM, he had final say. The GM in Philly was his puppet for 12 years in Philly.
That's the biggest fear people have here, him getting too much control and just getting a yes man in the GM role with no checks and balance.
It's really the only downfall of Andy's. He needs to just stick to coaching.
