Dungy is who more have mentioned. Think Trace might be a conflict of interest since he reps a lot of these guys. But that’s pure speculation
Yeah totally, just weird that he was seen at HH around the time the leaks on Nagy happened.

Ireland is the only gm candidate I've heard they are interviewing (of like 10) that I would be pissed if he's the choice. Literally every other option can be argued for. Ireland has nothing redeeming.

I believe he is Nagy’s agent. So it seems feasible that Nagy’s agent popped in when his client was rumored to be fired.

But, he was a ballboy back in the 80's.

He is, I think his appearance was the week or so before that leaked though.

I’d rather have Morocco Brown than Dodds but those 2 are at the top of my list

“his (Brown’s) work experience is quite unique. He has six years as Indy’s Director of College Scouting (2016-present). Previously, Brown was the Browns’ VP of Player Personnel (2014-15). Prior to that, Brown was in Washington’s organization as the team’s Director of Pro Personnel (2008-13). And here’s the kicker: Brown was the Bears’ Director of Pro Personnel (2001-07). There were some pretty good teams in that bunch. Just sayin’…”

It does seem clear that the Bears are going to grab somebody from the Colts organization, they are interviewing the whole building

My problem with Ireland is not as much the talent that he has drafted or had a hand in drafting, but his choices for HC's when he was the GM in Miami.
Great pickup. Sparano was a long shot that had never even been an OC or DC before he was head coach and spent most of his time coaching at small colleges. Philbin was at least an OC for the Packers, but had little track record otherwise.

That's hard to know. He has never had a big role in any organization. He is second in command of pro personnel, which is his first front office job of any significance. He is a huge reach IMO.
