Bears tab Emery as GM
Football Betting Lines
01/28/2012 - Lake Forest, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Bears announced on Saturday that they have hired Phil Emery as the team's fifth general manager in franchise history.
Emery joins the Bears with 14 years of NFL experience under his belt, including serving the past three seasons as director of college scouting for the Kansas City Chiefs.
This will be Emery's second stint with Chicago. From 1998-2004, he served as an area scout for the team. During that time, the Bears drafted wide receiver Marty Booker, defensive cornerstone Brian Urlacher, cornerback Charles Tillman and linebacker Lance Briggs.
After leaving the Bears, Emery was hired as director of college scouting for the Atlanta Falcons, where he served from 2004-2008.
Over that span, two of the Falcons' three first round draft picks developed into Pro Bowl caliber players, in wide receiver Roddy White and quarterback Matt Ryan.
Emery began his football career as a graduate assistant at Central Michigan from 1981-82. From there, he went on to become the strength and conditioning/offensive line coach at Western New Mexico for three seasons before becoming the defensive line coach at Georgetown College from 1984-85.
He made his final collegiate stop as the director of strength and conditioning and as an associate professor at the U.S. Naval Academy from 1991-98, where the midshipmen took home the Aloha Bowl in 1996.
Emery replaces longtime general manager Jerry Angelo, who was let go earlier this month as part of sweeping changes in the Bears front office after the team got off to a 7-3 start this past season, but lost five of its final six games to finish 8-8, missing the playoffs for the fourth time in the past five seasons.
