Mr. Scot

Dude, just...no.

Remember all the hype about his "coaching project"? Didn't exactly help him, did it? Heck I think he only ended up bringing one of those guys onto his staff.

Seeing Mike McCarthy in Dallas this year makes me wonder how Green Bay got anywhere with him. Lotta people said it was Rodgers.

I know football, and I find it very funny. Wilson is a good quarterback, but he's not Aaron Rodgers good. The only guy in the league right now that I could see placing over Aaron Rodgers is maybe Patrick Mahomes.

Marino was damn good. He could make a decision in a fraction of a second and put the ball in the exact right spot.

Eeeehhh...No.

Elway's Super Bowl performances weren't exactly anything to write home about till later in his career

Rodgers is physically superior to Brady. They're both pretty accurate. Brains? Probably give the edge to Brady but I don't know that it's by as huge a margin as you might think.

Time frame and contracts. Scouts and personnel people are going to be busy pretty soon. It's easier to just go with the people we have for now. That, plus these days a lot of front office and scouting people's contracts expire around draft time

Not that I recall but I'd have to look it up. I know Rivera took forever.

McDermott? I think only once or twice. With Rivera, I think we were something like his ninth interview.

From reading what they've posted, especially the thing about Bevell, I think they're just making logical guesses based on actual news items. Surprised they'd expect that to work. When people see that stuff not happening it's going to be kind of obvious.

Part of that could have been that Bieniemy mentioned really wanting to work with Newton. Tepper felt differently.

Might be a while. Those sorts of changes tend to come after the Draft.

That should turn out to be a side benefit of picking Fitterer.

Assistant GM would be a promotion for Morgan. Teams were able to refuse us permission to interview guys last year because we weren't offering a position that included roster control. The NFL changed some of those rules for this year because the Patriots kept screwing guys like Nick Caserio and Monti Ossenfort out of better opportunities, but I don't know if those changes would affect this sort of thing or not.

Hadn't thought about that. Morgan and Kuechly in the same front office? That's intriguing.

I've heard speculation that his interviews have gone poorly but I really don't know how seriously to take that. Could easily be bullsh-t. What is valid though is that working under a coaching genius has hurt a lot of guys' prospects in the past. Is that fair? Probably not, but it's at least somewhat understandable. Specific to Reid though, he has a good coaching tree but guys like Matt Nagy and even Doug Pederson probably aren't exactly helping Bieniemy right now.

Relevant to Brady and anybody else interviewing for the Eagles job the team according to Mike Garafolo, the team is making clear to all their interviewees that they want Carson Wentz back next season. Makes me wonder if they planted try and deal Jalen Hurts.

I know some people think that call was on Pete Carroll. Don't really know, but it's possible. One thing I do know: Before that game, Bevell was a rockstar who was getting head coaching looks. Since then, he just hasn't been the same. It makes me wonder if that loss broke him somehow.

It likely ain't gonna be to San Diego. Brady's prospects are dwindling. He's down to the Texans and the Eagles and the Texans might be wanting Bieniemy to placate Deshaun Watson.

Hate to hear that. I have some friends in similar situations.

Heh That was my first Draft. Every year after that when my friends and I got together to watch it, as soon as they'd introduce him we'd all say "Who in the hell is Mel Kiper Jr?"

Bill Tobin?
