Being a successful GM is collaborative effort.
While Dorsey's gone, most of the scouts still remain, as does Borgonzi.
They hired Chris Shea as salary cap and legal executive, and Tim Terry as director of pro personnel.
They also promoted Brandt Tilis to director of football administration (replacing Trip MacCracken), Ryan Poles to director of college scouting, Ryne Nutt to assistant director of college scouting, Dan Zegers to college scouting coordinator, Jim Noel to be a pro scout and Daniel Ricci to be a player personnel assistant.
Even if they hadn't fired Dorsey, there was a big front office shake up. [Reply]
I'm good with hiring veach. If he can make the same kind of personnel decisions as Dorsey and manage the cap well, we've got a great gm pick.
But it's silly to undermine the work Dorsey did to justify the hire. He's easily the best gm the Chiefs have had in decades. Clark may have had his reasons for the move but he better be fucking right. Veach has the qualifications to do it. But the bar is set pretty high if you're going to fire a guy like Dorsey. [Reply]

Thank God for the Senior PGA tour.
Vince Carter just signed a 1 year deal with the Kings so I'm good for now. [Reply]
