I believe Thomas Dimitroff is the only one of the 30 or so hires to come from the Patriots that didn't fail in astounding fashion. And he's not even a coach, so I had to sidestep your answer just to find some semblance of a basis for hiring anyone from the Pats.

JLC is far from reliable, but any time the Jags are linked to anyone from that organization, credibly or not, I'm going to be incredibly worried.

With that said, if Shad's plan to fix this mess he let fester for a year past expiration is Scott Pioli, I'm out for good. Pioli is a piece of trash who has no business being anywhere near a position of power again. McDaniels is a snake who I don't want near the organization either, but Pioli is just a bad person--at least as an executive. It takes a really questionable person to make Todd Haley a sympathetic figure.

Edit: knarnn up above listed BOB, who I forgot about. Vrabel is iffier as he never actually coached under the Pats, but did learn under BOB. So I guess the Pats have had 2.5 successful hires, not just TD as I initially asserted.
