If Baalke wasn’t in JAX, that would be the best but he’s awful and Khan seems committed to keeping him forever for some reason
McDaniel, my bad. Late in the day, didn't get that second coffee. let me edit that post
I think it’s a couple of third round picks as compensation when that happens.
He's talking about the compensatory picks the league gives to teams who have a Rooney compliant assistant coach or executive signed by another team... but the new team has to be making them the HC or Primary Executive.
yes, so for example... if a team hired Alonzo Highsmith as their GM, we'd get a 3rd this year and next in comp.
I would flip Jesters and Saints. I think we have more money and talent. Neither owner is anything to write home about.
Sanders wants to be in Vegas, working with/for Brady, who he is already close to. Now with Pierce gone, both father and son are a possibility.
as long as the g-man dont take him at 3 or tenn at 1 he will be at 6
The challenge is going to be breaking through in a division where the other teams have excellent coaches and strong QB situations, especially if Nix ends up being the guy in Denver.
I think Flores would be a better fit for the Raiders job if they are looking for a defensive head coach who can coach many years unlike BB.
Raiders at Patriots next year. BB vs Vrabel might be our first primetime game in years.
I think he’s also not allowed to call Raiders games. But still.
Amusingly... he is going to be calling the game with 2 coaching candidates they want to interview (Johnson/Glenn)
Yet another reason why BBs decision was so odd: timing. The UNC job would likely have been open to him in Jan/Feb if he continued to feign interest. And he could have gotten an actual feel for his NFL market instead of speculating. So strange.
If you are willing to say "fuck dem kids" if the NFL comes calling, signing with UNC with an opt-out and having that as your lead option unless the NFL suddenly changes its collective tune seems smart.
Of course but he could have run this leverage play with less collateral damage. Unless he told UNC in the negotiation that's there's a good chance he excerises the option this year and they decided to take the chance anyways. I want him back in the NFL but it all seems unnecessary to me to go through this rigamarole. Hopefully (for UNC) the boosters are keeping him away from cocktail napkins.
I don’t think it’s all that complicated — it’s a remedial rule designed to combat discrimination in areas where people of color are pervasively underrepresented (and also women, but only as to front-office roles, as it’s widely understood that playing experience at the collegiate level or above is a prerequisite for virtually all coaching jobs). The rule doesn’t extend to most position coaches because those roles have been historically held by people of color at rates comparable to their presence in the talent pool (i.e., people who have played college football at some level).
Saw Jordan Schultz asked about this, and he basically said he'd be shocked. Bill has been hitting the portal, he's flying/driving around the country with Steve hitting the recruiting trail hard... all indications are he really wants to try this.
I may be in the minority but I feel like this could be a lot of fun for BB. He has total control, he is likely going to paid more than any of his players and if he succeeds he will beloved by a whole new set of fans.
I totally agree with this, especially at a place like UNC where expectations are quite different than at Alabama, etc.
How many people (not companies/groups/organizations) have sued the NFL? Al Davis, Brian Flores, and Jon Gruden. Am I missing anyone? Perhaps, but either way, it would be fitting.
