I don't want to argue an unknown.

There ya do, Dude.

As for Pioli being hindered by second hand scouts left to him, that’s simply not true. Pioli basically froze out those scouts and personnel director Bill Kuharich in the run up and then on draft day.

He arrived with his information from New England along with a scout who had been let go up there, Jim Nagy. He paid no attention to any of the work done by the ’08 scouting department. I can tell you for a fact that the old group did not even have Colin Brown rated as a draftable player, but the Chiefs selected him in the fifth round.

Whether or not Pioli’s first draft class comes through or not, he has no one to blame but himself and the information he brought from the Patriots.
