Mike Borgonzi enters his 15th season with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2023. He was promoted to Assistant General Manager in 2021 after serving three seasons as the club's Director of Football Operations (2018-20) and three seasons as the club's Director of Player Personnel (2017)/Co-Director of Player Personnel (2015-16). In his current capacity, Borgonzi supervises and directs the club's college and professional scouting operations while closely supporting and advising General Manager Brett Veach with the club's roster management and player acquisition via the NFL Draft, NFL free agency, street free agency, waiver claims and trades.Prior to his current role, Borgonzi spent one year as Director of Football Operations. He then took on the entirety of the Director of Player Personnel position in 2017 after serving alongside current Chiefs General Manager Brett Veach as Co-Director of Player Personnel for two years (2015-16).
This guy is #1 on many experts’ listAnother that is a finalist for the GM position in Washington. He began his career as a scout for the Patriots (2003-2008).
San Francisco 49ers
Adam Peters is in his 21st season in the NFL and third as the 49ers assistant general manager. Previously, Peters spent four seasons as vice president of player personnel for the 49ers. He joined San Francisco after spending eight seasons (2009-16) with twww.49ers.com

He joined San Francisco after spending eight seasons (2009-16) with the Denver Broncos.In 2016, Peters was named the Broncos director of college scouting after spending two seasons as the team's assistant director of college scouting (2014-15). Peters spent three years as a national scout (2011-13) after originally joining the Broncos as a regional scout in 2009.As a member of Denver's personnel department, Peters helped the team acquire 27 players through the draft and college free agency that were vital members of the Super Bowl 50 championship roster.Peters joined the Broncos after spending six years (2003-08) with the New England Patriots. In his first two seasons with the Patriots as a scouting assistant, he was a part of two Super Bowl championship teams (XXXVIII in 2003 and XXXIX in 2004). In 2005, Peters handled pro scouting duties for the team before serving as an area scout in his final three seasons (2006-08) with the Patriots.
Adam Peters is a hot name in the GM game. What happens with 49ers if he leaves?
How would the team replace Peters in the front office? And if Steve Wilks lands a head-coaching gig, whom might he take with him?theathletic.com
Would love to hear thoughts from others on the bolded part above.I'd rather have Halaby or Horitz based on the info that JMT provided.
I don't want anything to do with someone from the Chiefs.
Bringing Peters in, with his previous ties to the team, would put unrealistic expectations on him
How would people feel if Scott Pioli took over as GM?
While the Pats excelled while he was in New England, his time with the Chiefs and Falcons was less successful.
This Former Patriots Exec Reportedly 'Open To Returning' To Team
One of the architects of the Patriots' first three Super Bowl-winning teams reportedly is interested in rejoining the franchise.nesn.com
What's the Pats culture? It was BB's culture and it just left the building. We're back to square one.we need to hire a HC to learn the Pats culture
Sure the 3rd pick is important but it's really every pick in every roundI always thought of Bill as the HC so I was not even thinking about this. For this year at least, getting the GM right is even more important than the coach because for once we have a very high pick.
The 3rd pick and whatever we do at QB will either put us on the right path or set us back at least 4 more years.
It left the building a couple yrs agoWhat's the Pats culture? It was BB's culture and it just left the building. We're back to square one.
That guy was a young colt when he entered the Pats Culture.It left the building a couple yrs ago
I hear you, but remember that Bobby Grier stuck around in 2000 for the draft work, and Belichick made them work on all positions even QB, so he was the one who did the in depth research on Brady (no other pro team reached out to Michigan about him). Belichick still was the one responsible for selecting him though. Point is, new GM can and should leverage the work Groh has already done and find a use for him in the short-term, just without any ultimate authority.I still want Absolutely Nothing to do with Al Groh's kid OR fellow hack Steve Cargrille in this New front office IN ANY CAPACITY WHATSOEVER.
As a matter of fact, these two incompetent ****ing toadies should be the Very First people FIRED by ownership, even before a New GM is hired!
The next pair to be Fired should then be Judge Joey & Cant Assford.
seems reasonableSome of the well informed media think it's Mayo and Wolf.
While I understand the sequence, GM first and then HC, normally the GM search takes a little longer and we need to hire a HC to learn the Pats culture and starting the preparation for next season as soon as possible before the good names are out of the market, there is a lot of job openings right now.
If Harbaugh becomes available and starts interviewing you sign him and look for a GM around that.
