Speaking of Scott Pioli, his successor John Dorsey is considered the architect of the Chiefs' current dynasty. He drafted multiple cornerstones that would propel the franchise to unprecedented heights: Travis Kelce, Tyreek Hill, Chris Jones, and most importantly Patrick Mahomes.

His departure after the 2017 season remains one of the most poignant in recent NFL memory. And while he has been doing very well as an advisor to the Detroit Lions, helping to orchestrate their own turnaround, he can still use his talents to save a moribund franchise like the Jets.
