I completely agree with this plan from @Jamie_B. I did not know you could @ people. This is a game changer

I am not sure they ever will. I wouldn't let Tee go this year with so much doubt. I think they could next year, but certainly haven't yet.

I was adamant about not keeping him but I think you need at least two very good weapons in an offense, be it WR, RB, TE. We have Chase and Higgins now. Flashes from Brown-Yoshi but they need another year. I think you can get away with starting Joe Mixon, Tanner Hudson, Charlie Jones if you have 2 top end stars at WR. Without it you can't. Obviously, the more playmakers the better. It would be great to have a threat at all 5 spots. 2/5 is the minimum. I think you have 3 guys in Brown, Yoshi and Jones I really like and they could become that. They need another year.

Also covered Freiermuth the week before. I think the solution might be a veteran safety who plays the safety role and Dax Hill moves to covering TEs/blitzing in those situations

Browns assistant OL coach makes most sense probably. https://www.clevelandbrowns.com/team/coaches-roster/scott-peters

PRobably lots more flexibility too.

There are currently 3 jobs open Panthers-Chargers-Raiders Commanders likely to replace their coach. Patriots might want a coach. That's 5 most likely openings with maybe more? Panthers reportedly want Lions OC. Interviewed him last time and he pulled out. Raiders might stick with Antonio Pierce. They are interviewing Trey Brown for their GM job. Chargers want either Harbaugh or Bellicheck but I assume will get neither. The 49ers offensive tree will be in demand with both the Texans and Dolphins OC's getting interviews. Brian Flores probably gets an interview. Bengals assistant gm could get gm job in New England or Raiders---ties to both. Worked in NE has interviewed for Raiders job twice. That would increase Callahans chances in both places.

I think Brownings success is going to be looked at as a positive for him. Browning had a better passer rating than Burrow this year and they strung together some wins. Taylor's biggest strength is the culture he created and Callahan's a huge part of that. If you ever hear him interviewed he is destined for a head job somewhere. I give it about 50-50 chance this year.

Here is everyone who was interviewed in 2022. Please ignore the colors. Dennis Allen Bears Saints Lou Anarumo Giants Darrell Bevell Jaguars Rich Bisaccia Jaguars Raiders Eric Bienemy Broncos Todd Bowles Bears Jaguars Raiders Vikings Thomas Brown Dolphins Jim Caldwell Bears Jaguars Brian Callahan Broncos Brian DaBoll Bears Dolphins Giants Matt Eberflus Bears Jaguars Vic Fangio Jaguars Brian Flores Bears Saints Texans Leslie Frazier Bears Dolphins Giants Jonathan Gannon Broncos Texans Vikings Luke Getsy Broncos Aaron Glenn Broncos Saints Patrick Graham Vikings Nathaniel Hackett Bears Broncos Jaguars Vikings Vance Joseph Dolphins Byron Leftwich Bears Jaguars Saints Joe Lombardi Texans Jerod Mayo Broncos Raiders Josh McCown Texans Josh McDaniel Raiders Mike McDaniel Dolphins Kellen Moore Broncos Dolphins Jaguars Vikings Raheem Morris Vikings Bill O'Brien Jaguars Kevin O'Connell Broncos Texans Vikings Doug Pederson Bears Jaguars Vikings Dan Quinn Bears Broncos Dolphins Giants Jaguars Vikings Demeco Ryans Vikings Hines Ward Texans

Anarumo and Callahan should both get interviews again this cycle. Most teams interview or many candidates. Here is everyone who was interviewed last year. Please ignore the colors. Broncos Cardinals Colts Panthers Texans Lou Anarumo Cardinals Eric Bienemy Colts Thomas Brown Texans Jim Caldwell Broncos Panthers Brian Callahan Cardinals Colts Ken Dorsey Panthers Ejiro Evero Broncos Cardinals Colts Panthers Texans Brian Flores Cardinals Jonathan Gannon Broncos Texans Aaron Glenn Cardinals Colts Jim Harbaugh Broncos Colts Panthers Ben Johnson Colts Panthers Texans Vance Joseph Cardinals Mike Kafka Broncos Cardinals Colts Panthers Texans Wink Martindale Colts Jerod Mayo Panthers Kellen Moore Panthers Raheem Morris Broncos Colts Sean Payton Broncos Cardinals Panthers Texans Dan Quinn Broncos Cardinals Colts Frank Reich Cardinals Panthers Demeco Ryans Broncos Cardinals Colts Panthers Texans Jeff Saturday Colts David Shaw Broncos Shane Steichen Colts Panthers Texans Bubba Ventrone Colts Steve Wilks Panthers

Callahan has interviewed the last two cycles. He's on most lists from experts. It would be a surprise if he doesn't interview this time around especially given that we won't be in the playoffs and teams can interview him while other candidates are off limits.

historically really good, this year a step slow.

Wouldn't be a lateral move.

Anarumo's best chance to be a head coach is if Ryan Walters fails at Purdue and he decides he wants to finish his career as a head coach.

I think Trey Brown and Callahan might go to the Raiders. Anarumo back,

But their coverage was terrible.

I cant get passed not kicking the field goal. I am sick of Zac Taylor's decision making.

I think the Franchise tag is all but guaranteed.

He is 58th of 84 tackles on PFF

I'd let Boyd walk. Even if Jones isn't the definitive answer, he might be and you can grab a guy like Dortch or Mooney to hedge. You don't need to draft a slot receiver in the first two rounds and maybe not even the first two days. Around 20 starting WRs were drafted last draft.

This is what I landed on for the offense QB Burrow 29 Browning 24 McCarron 24 UDFA-Tagovailoa 4 RB Brown 27 Mixon 25 Williams 24 Draft-Shirden (4) McBride Felton 6 WR Chase 26 Iosivas 27 Morgan Jackson 4 WR Higgins 24 Irwin 24 Lassiter UDFA 4 WR Jones 27 Dortch 25 Pryor UDFA 4 TE Hudson 24 Sample 24 Draft-Stover (3) Wilcox 24 Gentry UDFA-Pline 6 LT Brown 27 Carman 25 Cochran 3 LG Volson 26 Ford 24 Draft 3 C Karras 25 Hill 25 Gilliam 3 RG Cappa 26 Scharping 24 Kirkland 3 RT Draft-Latham (1) Smith 25 UDFA 3

Boyd just hasn't been all that great nor a focal point of the offense. I think he will probably go somewhere that will both pay him and throw it to him (And I expect them to regret that contract after next year).

Do you mean within texts or tables....both shouldn't be an issue. Here is the offensive roster currently. Blue=Unrestricted Green=Restricted or Exclusive IR PS QB Browning 24 McCarron 24 2 Burrow 29 Plitt RB Mixon 25 Brown 27 Williams 24 Evans 25 4 WR Chase 26 Iosivas 27 2 Felton WR Higgins 24 Irwin 24 2 Morgan 24 WR Boyd 24 Jones 27 2 Lassiter 25 TE Sample 24 Hudson 24 Wilcox 24 Smith 24 4 Pryor LT Brown 27 Carman 25 2 Cochran 24 Jackson 26 LG Volson 26 Ford 24 2 Gentry C Karras 25 Hill 25 2 Gilliam 25 RG Cappa 26 Scharping 24 2 Kirkland 26 RT Williams 24 Smith 25 2
