Then why do people want him? Because they are just so enamored with his work in Philly?
Louis Riddick, ESPN Analyst
Louis Riddick has many fans on the public side for years but hasn’t been able to break back into the NFL building just yet. Unlike Mike Mayock, who went from television to an NFL job without any prior front office experience, Riddick was a pro scout with Washington and the Philadelphia Eagles for a few years before becoming the Director of Pro Personnel in 2010.
Riddick was part of the front office who assembled the “Dream Team” in Philadelphia. Riddick was also instrumental in bringing star safety Sean Taylor to Washington while he was there. Riddick has become a well-respected ESPN analyst for several years now and has a great eye for talent. Riddick would be an unorthodox hire but is an appealing GM candidate in 2021.
