Scott ***** hired by NFL Network
Scott Pioli hired BY NFL Network.
http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2013/2/1...in-nfl-network Did not find it posted. Work as draft analyst... Former general managers Scott ***** and Mike Tannenbaum will join the NFL Network for their coverage leading up to the NFL Draft. The NFL Network has added two recent general managers to their coverage team for the 2013 NFL Draft as Scott ***** and Mike Tannenbaum will provide analysis in the weeks leading up to the draft. ***** served as the general manager of the Kansas City Chiefs from 2009-2012 and Tannenbaum as the GM of the Jets from 2006-2012; both men were fired following disappointing 2012 seasons. Despite their recent failings, both ***** and Tannenbaum have a long history evaluating talent in the NFL. ***** served in the Patriots player personnel department for nine years before taking the job in Kansas City and has worked in NFL front offices since 1992. He has won the NFL Executive of the Year Award from numerous organizations, including most recently in 2010 from both Pro Football Weekly and Sports Illustrated. Tannenbaum had served in the Jets front office since 1997, working his way up to general manager. Both the Chiefs and Jets experienced significant problems at the quarterback position in 2012, problems many fans blame on the general managers and that contributed to the two men losing their jobs. |

I don't mind overpaying for Albert. We have significant value with Charles and DJ, plus TJax, Dorsey, and Cassel will all come off the books.

How can we really overpay for him? There's a ceiling: Duane Brown, and a floor: 10th best paid LT. Just negotiate between that. No need to let him hit the market. And even if you overpay him, who cares?

If he decides to go out into free agency and someone else wants to sign him, does he have to give us an option to match it etc? |

Overpaying Albert for a few million is worth the risk of potentially losing him, especially when he's been a loyal soldier on a shit team with a terrible QB that has caused him to become vastly underrated.

You absolutely can overpay for him based on the current market. I'm not against it, but I'm also not thrilled giving a player tons of cash with a back issue.

Frankly, I'm over caring if they overpay for someone or not. Not my money, don't give a shit.

What did he sit out last year with? Menstrual cramping?

2-14 garbage dumpster fire of a team with like 6 good players on the whole roster and people are worrying about overpaying to keep 1.

Any amount that we might overpay Albert is going to look like what Struthers asks you to donate to third-world countries compared to what Pioli gave Cassel and Jackson.
Is it asking too much for that loathsome **** to die on camera? |

@evansilva: #Chiefs coach Andy Reid referred to free agent LT Branden Albert's 2012 back issues as "a fairly significant injury": http://t.co/8RVTkwTn5P

I hope NFL Network asks him for live "analysis" when Cassel is cut, and he suffers a coronary.
