Whether it’s Scott Pioli or someone else, the next Chiefs general manager might have to wait a while before he’s in his new job. Interim president/general manager Denny Thum, who is assisting chairman Clark Hunt in the selection process, said Hunt hopes to hire a general manager before the Super Bowl, which is Feb. 1. Hunt has interviewed Pioli, New England’s vice president for player personnel, and others. Hunt could interview as many as 10 candidates before he’s finished. In the meantime, the Chiefs are going about business as usual.
They recently signed several players, including quarterback Ingle Martin on Monday, to fill out the bottom of their roster. The Chiefs have started preparing for free-agency, which begins in late February, and the April draft. They will have the third pick, their highest selection since choosing Nebraska defensive end Neil Smith with the second choice in 1988
