The Chiefs announced today that Scott Pioli has agreed to become our new GM:
Scott Pioli, who has spent nine years helping create a dynasty in New England, will be the Chiefs’ new general manager.
A news conference will be held at 5 p.m. Wednesday to introduce Pioli. He will have the final say over all football operations at Arrowhead Stadium, reporting to Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt.
Pioli, who turns 44 in March, has been with New England since 2000 as vice president for player personnel.
“We are very excited to welcome Scott to the Chiefs,” Hunt said. “With his proven track record of success, Scott is the finest player personnel executive in the NFL, and we look forward to his leadership in building a championship organization.”
No decision has been made yet on whether Herm Edwards will remain Chiefs coach, although it appears unlikely Pioli will retain him. Edwards was still working at his office earlier today, but the Arrowhead Stadium offices were virtually empty in the late afternoon.
Well, the Chiefs got the best GM candidate on the market and he might fire Harm Edwards. Its like Christmas all over again. Thoughts?

For some reason I have a feeling Pioli is going to give Herm one more year to turn it around.
