So are Dorsey/Veach still just puppets to Andy when it comes to personnel?
People said that about Dorsey. And they DEFINITELY said that about Veach when he first got hired, given he was young and a former protege of Reid, and Dorsey had just gotten fired.
The past few offseason strategies and types of players we acquire/sign has been so remarkably different under Veach that I don't know how anybody with a real brain can convince themselves that Andy Reid is actually the one who has final say or even says, "Here, go find me these players." Yes, they collaborate, but that's what ALL NFL coach/GM relationships should do when it comes to personnel acquisition and drafting. When has Andy as a GM in Philly EVER so aggressively completely ****ing renovated entire position groups in single offseasons? We've seen Veach do this shit twice now, once with the defense and now with the OL. When has Andy "in charge" ever done that shit? It's what I tried to tell some of you. The Chiefs said it's a collaboration, but that the GM has the "final say." They were pretty clear about that. The draft strategy is Veach's. The draft scouting is Veach's. The free agency strategy is Veach's. The team is Veach's pretty squarely Veach's to scout and construct, and Andy's to coach. |

I mean, he's letting players dictate who we draft. It's total chaos at 1 Arrowhead with the inmates running the asylum.

To be fair this is probably more common than you think with a lot of guys pushing for someone who never ends up making it here.

I'm pretty sure Andy became a BV fan after he did a war dance to convince Dorsey to draft a certain QB from Texas Tech. He's probably happy to be just the HC.

Which QB? I’m unfamiliar.

Andy seems to love him some MIZZOU. Drafting fairly local talent is probably smart after this strange college and drafting year.

I thought Veach sold Andy on Mahomes.....
Sounded like if Veach liked someone-he was the real deal.

No! Andy enjoys being the head coach. I'm sure he likes to be in the loop, but I think he trusts in Brett Veach to find him the players that he needs.

Oh I think Andy does, considering that he went to 3 AFC Championship games, winning 2 of them in a row to go to the Super Bowl, finally winning one.
