Would you fire TD and co. to hire this guy. I'd seriously consider it.

 

Whispers

 

Working in the last year of his contract with the Patriots, we hear that it won’t be a surprise if vice president of player personnel Scott Pioli, the NFL’s 2003 Executive of the Year and head coach Bill Belichick’s right-hand man, strikes out on his own this offseason to head up his own personnel staff with another NFL team. One team that has been rumored is Miami, which is mulling the prospects of major turnover in its front office and coaching ranks this offseason. However, we hear that the Jets are also a possibility. Pioli was raised in New York, his first front-office job was with the Jets and he maintains a good relationship with Jets senior vice president of football operations Mike Tannenbaum. Jets GM Terry Bradway is in the last year of his contract, and there are rumors that tensions are mounting between head coach Herm Edwards and Bradway. This would be more than a business decision for Pioli, who is extremely close to Belichick and owner Robert Kraft. If Pioli does leave, don’t be surprised if Belichick promotes Patriots director of pro personnel Nick Caserio, who turns 29 in December and has already taken a greater role in the organization since being promoted last February, making him the youngest pro personnel director in the NFL.
