Chiefs reach out to Louis Riddick for GM spot
@RapSheet: The #Chiefs have reached out to ESPN analyst Louis Riddick to set up an interview for next week for their now-vacant GM job, sources say.
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...louis-riddick- Report: Chiefs want to interview Louis Riddick for G.M. opening Posted by Josh Alper on June 25, 2017, 10:53 AM EDT The Chiefs made waves last week with the surprising announcement that they had dismissed General Manager John Dorsey after four years with the team. The team’s co-directors of player personnel*Mike Borgonzi and Brett Veach are expected to be candidates for a promotion, but the team will be looking outside the organization as well. Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Chiefs want ESPN analyst Louis Riddick*to interview*for the job. Riddick was a defensive back for several teams in the 1990s and worked in the personnel departments in Washington and Philadelphia before making the move to TV. Riddick interviewed for the 49ers General Manager vacancy earlier this year before they hired John Lynch. Riddick said he was close to getting that job and,*true or not, it looks like he’s getting another chance to make his case for running an NFL personnel department.

I have always loved Riddick. I would be happy with him at GM.

Bottles was a good QB in 2015-2016 but he fell off dramatically last year

I hate the timing of this and hope we don't rush into a long term decision for the sake of filling the chair. Wonder if we can just let Veach run the team for a short time with the promise that he'll get Ballard's position next year. |

I've said it before and I'll say it again 90% of GM's and personnel guys would've taken Joeckel
That doesn't make Riddick an idiot |

Joeckel's career probably pans out much better if he ends up in KC...

I've always assumed that most GM's wouldn't want to drop a 1.1 on a left tackle that played in the MAC. Shows you just how weak that 2013 draft was at the top.

I would love this hire. Riddick has always been my favorite personality of NFL/ESPN the past few years. Very bright.
I'm sure it will be Veach though, and that is fine. |

If you believe Clark fired Dorsey over drafting Mahomes you area complete moron.
Do you think these decisions are made in a vacuum and Hunt had no say so in giving up 2 1st round picks? Are you seriously that stupid? |
