Romeo may cost Chiefs some draft picks (OR NOT)

Quote:
INDIANAPOLIS -- Romeo Crennel could get fined and the Chiefs stripped of a draft choice for comments their head coach made at the NFL scouting combine.

Crennel may have run afoul of the league’s policy on tampering with his comments on two quarterbacks who play for other teams, Peyton Manning of Indianapolis and Chad Henne of Miami. During a news conference, Crennel was asked about possible Chiefs interest in both players.

On Manning, who is under contract with the Colts but soon could be released, Crennel said, “I’m not supposed to talk about anyone else’s players. He’s still a player with Indianapolis. But with a talent like that, I would be crazy not to consider it if he were available. I’ll leave it at that.”

Henne, a potential unrestricted free agent, played last season for new Chiefs offensive coordinator Brian Daboll. On Henne, Crennel said, “Because of his relationship with Daboll, I think that would be a consideration. To say right now that would be the case, I’m not ready to do that.”

The NFL’s policy on tampering covers public statements made by team officials. It reads in part:

“Any public or private statement of interest, qualified or unqualified, in another club’s player to that player’s agent or representative, or to a member of the news media, is a violation of this Anti-Tampering Policy. (Example of a prohibited comment: “He’s an excellent player, and we’d very much like to have him if he were available, but another club holds his rights.”)”

The Chiefs last year won a tampering claim against the Detroit Lions involving former safety Jarrad Page. They swapped draft picks with the Lions in the fifth round of last year’s draft, allowing them to move up 14 spots.

EDIT: NFL spokesperson says it isn't considered tampering (thanks for the find BigRock)

While I agree, the NFL should also stop encouraging teams to do interviews at public events like the combine.

They want the coaches and GMs to be out there and contribute to the 24x7x365 NFL frenzy but then they want to strictly monitor everything they say to the point where they just shouldn't talk.

It's really dumb on the NFL's part.

See? That's what I feared ... that all that's required is a public "statement" which can be construed as soliciting a player by expressing an interest. That's really all Gunther did (other than the "inappropriate contact" part - which I still don't understand, or even know what that was) and it sounds like that's all it takes.

It seems like Crennel's kind of walking the razor's edge, here.

I tend to agree with Petro - the NFL makes these coaches and GMs available to the media at the scouting combine. If they don't want these kinds of things to happen, don't make them available. As it is, if they get asked a question, they should be able to answer.

They've put guys like Romeo in a no-win situation - if he doesn't answer or says "no comment" he's being an asshole to the media. If he does answer, he's tampering.
Either the Colts or the Phins, I guess. Or, of course, the NFL itself.

It remains to be seen where the boot up the ass might come from ... and to whom said boot might belong. If, on the other hand, Crennel doesn't skate on account of the fact that he's generally viewed as a nice guy whereas Gunther is generally viewed as a raving lunatic.

The funny thing is that everybody knows that a lot of teams would be interested in Manning. That's no secret. Henne? ... that's another matter entirely.

RAC may have saved face with his opening statement acknowledging the tampering rules. Believe you me Pioli and RAC discussed and rehearsed what was to be said.
hopefully that saves us

In other words, we have to wait and see if anybody pitches a fit before we decide if it's tampering or not.

You know exactly what was going on in Romeo's mind when they asked that question:

"If I say 'I can't comment' that means ChiefsPlanet is going to go crazy and think I'm endorsing Cassel. Screw it, I'll risk the loss of a 7th round draft pick, I can't have all those nice Chief fans calling me Herm-2."

It appears to me that, if anyone REALLY wanted to push the issue, RAC screwed up. That said, it seems a little extreme that a coach can't even say "Yes, I'd like to have Peyton Manning on my team." without that violating the rule. Free agency would be more fun if coaches could comment on who they're going after.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the league fine Crennel for the comments just to make a point and attempt to make it look like they are enforcing their own bylaws. I'd be surprised to see draft picks affected unless a team files charges (and because I'd be surprised to see Goodell come straight out and slap Clark Hunt for this)...

Yeah, another example of the NFL arbitrarily applying the rules.
