Unlikely since Baalke likely hired Gamble.

He actually turned down interviews for a couple GM positions. Chip Kelly liked him a lot in Philly and then the GM got insecure and thought that they both were trying to stage a coup and freaked out.


I can't see the addition of an experienced personnel guy and scout as anything but a big plus.

Top NFL GM candidates Tom Gamble leads list of most likely front office executives to be promoted

Tier 1

1. Tom Gamble, vice president of player personnel, Philadelphia Eagles The son of former Eagles president Harry Gamble, Tom started his NFL career with the Eagles in 1998. And like his late father, he is a rarity in NFL scouting departments these days: He not only has extensive pro and college scouting experience, but he has experience with contract negations and the salary cap, and he even has coaching experience in his résumé (defensive assistant/quality control coach with the New York Jets for two seasons: 1995-1996). Over the years, several teams have shown interest in him for general manager jobs (most recently last year -- Miami Dolphins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers).

And it's worth noting that Gamble has worked closely with some of the best evaluators in the NFL such as Bill Polian (with Carolina Panthers and Indianapolis Colts) and Trent Baalke (with San Francisco 49ers). And most recently, Gamble has had a hand in the turnarounds with the 49ers and Eagles, where he has worked closely with head coach Chip Kelly.

Baalke hired a guy that can take his job if this Baalke Jed project fails.
