DAL scuttlebutt is that they may promote Mike to HC

Interesting - article on ESPN said all of the coaches contracts  were expiring. Weird timing for Dallas... someone must have become available that wasn't there before?

Deion maybe to Cowboys

 

Does Shadur go with him? They just signed Dak to be the highest paid QB in the league.

Lets hope not.  I'd personally like to see him stay in college.

I tend to agree, don't think his motivational style would really work at the NFL level.

FWIW, its absurd to me that teams interview this many people. How can they not have 5-8 guys ready to go. 

 

Maybe you interview someone now to get to know them for down the road, but it just seems like wasted efforts.

For some reason I thought you work in HR?

I don't have a problem with teams doing their due diligence

i do, but there are 32 of these jobs and they are so high profile you pretty much know everyone. To not have a list ready to go at all times is pretty bad

Teams like to cast a wide net for their initial interviews. They can get insight from people they wouldn't normally be able to speak to. Al Davis was famous for picking everyone's brains when he interviewed. Patriots had their guy from the start but other teams seem open minded about it. For a team like the Jets, they are looking for a GM too so they hope either the HC brings a favored GM with him or vice versa. The Jags said they were keeping Baalke as GM but there are lots of rumors that if their new coach wants a different GM, he might get it.

I think Brady only leaves the Bills for a head coaching job. Todd Monken is the OC I'd like to see become a head coach. He has done wonders for Lamar Jackson & the Ravens. Monken was a brilliant hire by Baltimore.

32 Head Coach jobs, and how many candidates and that includes both at the NFL and college level. Seems like potentially alot, and I imagine that list is always fluid.

He was interviewed when we hired Taylor

Oh Tommy.

Your in for a surprise no matter how could they think you to be.

Browns cup is damn near empty.

NFL....not for long

 

Sounds like nobody outside their org wanted to go to Cleveland to fail for a year before the owners fire everyone. If they use their first pick on a QB, that might buy the coaches and GM more time while they wait for Watson to exit their salary cap. But it's probably not in the team's best long term interest. They'd probably be best served by trading down with a QB needy team, replenishing their draft picks after sending 3 1s to Houston and rebuilding their base while using a stopgap vet at QB like Cousins or Darnold.

On some level... Why not interview as many potential DC's as possible? Even if you don't want to hire him, he might the Ravens DC in two years, and you've had the opportunity to sit him in a room and get him to explain his scheme and how he thinks in depth. If you've already decided on Golden, why not interview the Ravens LB coach and the Stealers secondary coach for scouting purposes???

"So, how do you like to disguise coverages again?? Let's break down some tape."
