Saints are flying Kafka and Weaver in for 2nd interviews [interviews rescheduled to January 24-25 due to snowstorm in N.O.]

I think that the Saints are only interviewing people that they would hire. The first step of the hiring process is to narrow down the pool of available candidates to just the people you would actually hire. Then you start scheduling the interviews.

Even with the Rooney Rule, I don't think the Saints would fly someone in for an interview that they aren't seriously open to hiring.

I tend to agree. I guess I always assume they have a favorite, but maybe they don't since it's not just one guy doing the interviews. I honestly hope they don't have a favorite and that they go into every interview giving the guy an equal chance to get the job. Just because you don't like the stats or the resume as much as others doesn't mean they aren't the right choice for this specific situation. And maybe that is what they are doing since it's a 5 or 6 person group doing the interviews. Each of them probably has different guys that they would probably like, but with that many reviewing each candidate hopefully each guy will get a fair shot.

Of course, in the end, it's going to be Loomis making the decision, but hopefully he has an open mind going into each interview and will listen to the other guys doing the interviews.
