"It very well will be the finest coaching staff I've ever been able to put together."

Saunders will be joined on the Chiefs' offensive staff by two of Gunther Cunningham's assistants, tight-ends coach Keith Rowen and offensive-line coach Mike Solari, and two additions from the Buffalo Bills, wide-receivers coach Charlie Joiner and running-backs coach James Saxon.

Vermeil interviewed former Chiefs tight end Jonathan Hayes to be tight-ends coach, but Hayes told Vermeil he preferred to remain an assistant at the University of Oklahoma.

Vermeil said former Oakland head coach Mike White could join his staff, but White's involvement would be more administrative and not in an on-field capacity.

Vermeil was still seeking to hire a quarterbacks coach.

The Chiefs on Monday completed their defensive staff with the hiring of Greg Robinson as coordinator.

"It very well will be the finest coaching staff I've ever been able to put together," Vermeil said. "I really feel that strongly about it."
