We have received permission to interview and possibly sign Herman Edwards as the next head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs. If an agreement is reached with the coach, then we will give the New York Jets our fourth-round draft choice in 2006. The NFL has approved the compensation if or when we come to an agreement with Herm. |
We selected Herm Edwards because he is without question one of the most qualified head football coaches in the NFL today. Herm knows what the National Football League is all about. He is a man of integrity, family and great passion for the game. |
We'd like to think that's a position that has some depth and quality. There are going to be some in the first or second round which you would hope could come in and help immediately. |
When the opportunity came available that Herm Edwards was the guy I could possibly get, that was without question my first choice. Herm knows offense and defense and the entire team, and he's had five years of head-coaching experience. It was an easy decision for me when I could work out compensation with the Jets. |
Willie Roaf is 320 pounds, ... but he's as light on his feet as anyone I know. |
You have to respect his talent. The guy is the best. ... Now that he's had a chance to step back and reflect on what has happened ... maybe he can say, 'I [messed] up.' . |
