I've seen no indication that Pioli has that same personality issues with agents that Carl Peterson did.
no limitations on spending isn't that same as deciding that giving a huge contract to an older guy with mulitiple neck surgeries isn't a good idea. But i don't know who would make that decision ... Pioli or Clark or Both.

Manning mentioned several times that he would never play for an organization where he didn't feel like he could do his own thing and have at least some say in personnel decisions. You think he'd really believe a guy who hired 4 offensive coordinators, all of whom had experience in Erhardt-Perkins, when he says he'd give flexibility to run the offense?
Manning is a personal guy who does a gazillion media appearances. He loves the fans. How do you think he would feel about KC's media policy and scripted media talking points?
Do the math. There is no way Peyton would ever play for a team culture like this.
