The Gun Of Bavaria Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I'm almost 100% positive that Tagliabue established a rule that draft picks will no longer be used in connection from sawaying a head coach away from another team since the Jon Gruden fiasco. The only way I can see it happening is being in the form of 'punishment' for tamepering with an opposing team's HC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudcat21 Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I think if we give Hermie permission to talk to KC, a deal can be worked out afterward. The other coaches leaving were more of tampering in nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSJ Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 You are right. The only way the Jets can get compensation is to be awarded it from an arbitrator (hopefully not richard bloch) if they filed for tampering. Also elevating Parcells from HC to GM would allow for no compensation to be awarded no matter what. Just a hypothetical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 NFL Bylaws state, "It is not legal in nature to exchange draft picks for a NFL Head Coach." According to you guys Herm isn't an actual Head Coach so this should be perfectly legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other coaches leaving were more of tampering in nature. every rule/law has a loophole. kc could trade a player for herm, or else picks for a player already on the jets roster.

TaborJet Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 CLEARING THE AIR ON PICKS FOR COACHES After the Bucs acquired Raiders coach Jon Gruden by sending a pack of picks to the pirates of Piedmont, the NFL circulated a memo that supposedly prohibited this practice. As explained in the January 17, 2003 St. Petersburg Times, the Competition Committee had concluded that the use of draft picks to secure coaches could be undermining the purposes of the draft. Not long thereafter, then-Bucs G.M. Rich McKay told ESPN.com that the memo was not intended to apply to head coaches. At a time when there will be plenty of head coaching vacancies and not enough high-end candidates, some teams could be interested in guys who already are gainfully employed with other NFL teams. Thus, the possibility of using draft picks has come up again, and plenty of our readers wanted to know whether the practice was still permitted. League spokesman Greg Aiello told us on Monday that draft picks can be used to acquire a head coach or a high-ranking club executive (such as G.M. or the equivalent). Draft choices cannot be used, per Aiello, to acquire coordinators, position coaches, or executives below the level of president or G.M. We've got a feeling that this rule will come into play for at least one of the current coaching and/or G.M. vacancies this year, possibly if the Chiefs come after coach Herm Edwards of the Jets.

Bugg Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Peterson's statement as per ESPN is to the effect that while he won't tamper(which is a joke given that they probably did meet that Friday night in December), if the Jets contact him he would talk about Edwards. It's gonna get interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hehe. . . because I get so few opportunities at chest thumping, this article came as a result of my question to PFT this morning. I sent the guy the two article links and asked him to reconcile the two. I guess we were all wrong. We can shop Herm around to the. . .ummmm. . . highest bidder. Or sumthin'.
