Update from @mortreport: Cards visit with Andy Reid is off, Chiefs have not scheduled other visits with candidates, hoping to wrap deal Fri.

Anyone upset by the fact that Andy Reid is apparently looking to sign all his 'friends and cronies'?

[RealSNR]

Very likely Q, but I just saw dumbass former NFL jock (who can keep track of them all?) and Mark Schlereth on Sports Center talking about Andy Reid's success with QBs. They both said, "He will do a good job getting Matt Cassel to be more comfortable and confident." I busted a gut laughing.

Most Coaches want this.

Also, what are you hearing about Pioli staying on?

I'm hearing the only way Scott Pioli stays in place is if he wants to pick up candy wrappers in the stairway.

Not yet. We could be cussing out the "Eagles Way" in a couple years though.

Yea, I'm not a drafturbator and don't know all the prospects but from my quick google search on him, you couldn't pass him for Tavon. I like 6ft tall physical corners.

Well, no.


His friends and cronies have atleast been successful.

No, because they actually know what the **** they're doing.

Only by the Pioli-smokers.

It's about football speed. Wylie doesn't show his speed on tape, Austin does.

I can see people not wanting to use the pick on him because of our other needs, but Austin's going to be a very dangerous player in this league, IMO. Ultimately I wouldn't be at all surprised to see the Pats take him.

Details >> MT @Jeff_McLane: Reid signing with #Chiefs is imminent. Would save #Eagles from paying Reid's remaining $$: http://mobile.philly.com/sports/eagl...s&id=185566652 …

In place as Gm or in place at all?


Any word on why he was brought along for the interviews?

Looks like Andy Reid chose ribs over burritos. I am not surprised.

Not really, it's a whole new roster, a number one pick, and as where Fescoe believes he's burnt out I think with Philly and his sons death behind him, he's just getting started.
