So no announcement of the interview yet…

I wonder how much of the Davis Webb interviews are opportunities to see if he would be interested in leaving Payton to be an actual play caller. If he’s not selected as a HC, I could see him getting paired with Evero, being his OC on a big contract and play calling duties. HOWEVER, you risk losing him to a HC job in a year or two.

He was known for his defense in Pittsburgh in 90s and then a decent one with Jacksonville after we let him go. His defense in Green Bay was top 5 the first couple of years but it fell off the rest of his time.

That staggering 5 year/ 9.4 million contract going to change the GDP

The best part is you build it to where X amount is guaranteed and split it across 4 years in bonus up front. But leave yourself some wiggle room year 2 just in case you need out of it.

I think he gets AJ Epenesa. He was Director of Player Personnel when he was drafted in Buffalo.

I think Shula, Minter, and even Evero have a decent shot. Could see McCarthy as an odd ball pick even though he doesn’t fit the mold. He’s from Pittsburgh and grew up a Steelers fan. Would make things interesting if Rodgers came back.

After Frank Reich, I don’t care if we are last in screens.

It makes sense but I could totally see Morgan pulling a Jalon Walker here and misdirecting and grabbing somebody else.

I’ll add that I think Buffalo will hit a slump following this. It looks like McDermott was really liked in the locker room. His last words at the press conference was “I’m standing up for Buffalo damnit” and then he got fired. Bring a guy in who finishes 7-10, that locker room will start splintering.

Joe Schoen and Brandon Beane were both underwhelming. The important thing is we have Dan who can find talent. It’s why I wasn’t worried about losing Brandt. I’d rather have the talent guy than the money guy. Both are important but one is harder to replace.

Pittsburgh would be perfect for him. I just think they will go young/first time HC like before. I think McDermott goes to Baltimore or he just sits out a season. I just don’t know what the dynamic will be with Lamar. I think next year there is a good chance: Dallas, Washington, Tampa, NYJ, Indy will be the openings and probably one more surprise. I could see him in Dallas to “fix the defense” after it struggles again this year.

I read a post from a Raiders beat reporter today, sorry can’t find it maybe one of you seen it. Anyways he said that the Raiders really like Evero, and liked him last cycle. They would probably hire him if it weren’t for the focus on developing Mendoza this upcoming season and the risk of losing an OC to a HC job after their first season together. Edit: I didn’t see the one posted at the top of the page, it literally says the same one but isn’t the same poster.

Unfortunately he will have his choice of whatever HC opening is available. My guess is Miami, Baltimore, or Pittsburgh

“How dare he speak up about the officiating”
