In and of itself, anyway, the Chiefs made a logical, smart and presumably safe move promoting to Brett Veach to general manager.

Most recently as co-director of player personnel, Veach has been in the mortar of their turnaround the last four years under coach Andy Reid and GM predecessor John Dorsey.

Sure, a bolder move might have been choosing someone like Seattle’s Scott Fitterer, one of the candidates for the job. He held a position comparable to Veach’s with the Seahawks and was part of building teams that went to three Super Bowls and won one.
