He later said that he confirmed Poles gets full autonomy on the coaching hire, and that Poles himself demanded it.

I read an article about the Patriots struggles and it said the coordinators have pretty much been purged from 5-6 years ago, so instead of having coordinators with 15+ years of experience you've got a lot of dudes learning OTJ...I think it matters

Exactly. So until we do know, I am going to enjoy this moment and the fact that we at least got a GM that was instrumental in turning around the Chiefs offensive line in one year.
I am all about the O-line.

Did not know this:
"Poles was signed by the Bears as an undrafted free agent in May 2008. The Bears cut him at the end of training camp."
"About a month or so later, he was back at BC, working as a graduate assistant. Less than a year later, he joined the Chiefs organization, working his way up from a scouting assistant to college scouting coordinator, a job he held for six years. He was the team’s college scouting director for two years after that before, in May 2018, taking over as the team’s assistant player personnel director. In June, his title changed to executive director of player personnel.
While he was involved in the Chiefs’ college operation, the franchise drafted quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce, who are each considered the league’s best player at their position. Other stars the Chiefs drafted during that span include defensive lineman Chris Jones, receiver Tyreek Hill, cornerback Marcus Peters and defensive tackle Dontari Poe."

Bears expected to name Ryan Poles their next general manager
Tuesday wasn’t Poles’ first visit to Halas Hall. It won’t be his last, either.

My only real problem with this hire is that it is going to take weeks for my phone to stop autocorrecting "Ryan Poles" into "Ryan Pace".
Months if Poles turns out to be a ****ing idiot.

I'd rather they let Poles pick the HC...I don't want another Pace/Fox experience

I can't see Poles hiring a dude that is twice his age to work under him. I could be wrong though.

It's pretty clear Grimson and Harold Winman have better sources than DBB and the PFF lawyer.
