Steelers Set to Interview Morocco Brown

[Steeler Nation]

The Pittsburgh Steelers have another candidate for their open General Manager position. This time its Indianapolis Colts scouting director Morocco Brown. He’s held that position since leaving Cleveland following the 2015 season.

This comes on the heels of news yesterday that the team was interviewing ESPN analyst, and former Director of Personnel Louis Riddick.

Brown has helped the Colts reconstruct their offensive line into a power house that paved the way for NFL leading rusher Johnathan Taylor.

Steelers requested permission to interview Colts’ college scouting director Morocco Brown for their general manager job, per league sources.

Another one joins the fray. Only if they could attack positional coaches the same way.

 

[BLITZ]

Who?

Interesting. Colts have some pretty decent draft picks in recent years: Jonathan Taylor in the 2nd round, Darius Leonard in the 2nd, Quenton Nelson in the 1st. Those three are upper-echelon talent.

He has a great deal of experience and success in personnel evaluation and I'm surprised he hasn't landed a GM job. I wouldn't mind this hire at all.

Plus guess where he's from, Hampton Virginia. Same town as Mike Tomlin and you know how much MT loves individuals from his home state.

Pretty impressive resume. I wish they showed as much interest in an OL Coach.

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

Why dont they just interview CoCo B'ware ?

 

[Punxsutawney]

Hard to argue with the success and credentials.

Curious how the likes of Brown or Riddick would view Colbert sticking around through the draft.

I'm sure it would just be business as usual for the in-house candidates.

 

[SteelBuckeye]

Lots of outside candidates being interviewed. Report I read said that ARll prefers an outside candidate. While Colbert prefers Kahn and Tomlin prefers Hunt. Seems Deuce is making them put the effort into interviewing outside the organization. Fresh eyes couldn't hurt.

 

[JP1977]

Sign him up. A guy with actual credentials instead of a Tomlin flunkie.

 

[Stewey]

He appears too qualified to be hired by the Steelers.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Brown also has that N. C. State nexus that appears to be flavor of the month.

Shouldn't they be interviewing Kapernick?

Why would they interview Kaepernick ?
