His son could still have a very good career ahead. He was injured a lot this past year but has been great otherwise behind Kupp.

Would love Van in black and blue

Van had a good game on this mic'd up and obviously loves and respects his dad. So many good position coaches so far, Reich is obviously not interested in micromanaging Rhule style, such a relief

Honestly, we have two WRs that could be perfect adds: one is obvious now..Van Jefferson & Keenan Allen.

Allen won’t be as expensive as you’d think. Those two, Moore and TMJ. 

Even Shi Smith could get his head right with this kind of coaching staff. He got drafted into a horrible situation and looked great in camp and preseason until Rhule and company actually had to play against NFL teams. The nice thing is we're at a point where if guys don't make the 53 this year, it's because they don't meet actual NFL standards. No stupid camp competitions that go through week 3 of preseason

Nice. I remember him as a player in San Diego. Didn’t realize he was a coach for that long.

Yeah he's definitely one of those guys that I knew as a kid following the game but you can just forget about with time.  

It's that era w/ Peerless Price, Eric Moulds, Joe Horn, etc. During peak TO/Moss.  

Next thing you know, Ashley Lelie will be hired up in here.

Don’t forget the Temple/Baylor nepotism either.

Brentson Buckner is a good Friend of the guys on the morning WFNZ show.  He used to go on there a lot.

He coached with Jefferson in Arizona.  And txtd the guys at WFNZ that Jefferson is the best hire out of all these guys we’ve hired.

Compared him to Richard Williamson who coach the WRs here from 1995 to 2009

      Dan Morgan is an awful GM

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      1) Signed 2 high profile guards to big contracts. Did we need guards? Yes. But there's a reason you draft guards and pay tackles. It's easier to find solid guards in the draft. Now we have the most expensive line in the league and still can't get 100 yards passing before halftime.  2) Traded up to get a RB when we didn't really need one. Chuba is one of the better RBs in the league right now and while it is a contract year, we had a crap ton of holes all over. Brooks was a luxury pick we didn't have the luxury to make. 3)Spending a small fortune to build a supporting cast for BY. Bryce didn't even put the work in himself during the offseason by his own admission. We didn't need to build an offense specifically for BY. We brought in DJ and drafted XL. These guys need a QB with a live arm. That's not BY. Speed kills but not when your QB can't legitimately make an accurate, deep ball strike without putting a ton of air under it and floating it.  4. Not looking for a true center. There were several available and it's been a position of need for years. We could have had our choice but we rolled with Corbitt, who did look good at the spot, but had an injury bug that struck again this year.  5) He didn't bring in any serious competition for Bryce. Now you can say that BY needs time to develop and we needed to show we had faith in him, blah blah blah. But the simple matter of fact is Bryce looked like a PS QB last year, Andy has one foot in the QB grave, and there was never an attempt to actually compete for the job. If he genuinely believed that BY was going to magically make it all come together watching YT and chillin for 4 months to unplug, then there's nothing else that needs to be said.  The goal of every GM should be to build a winning team. Players are commodities and loyalty leads you to an early walk out the door. We've tried to build a system to work around the most limited QB in NFL history. 60 years of history should have told him it was never going to work. And benching BY after 2 games is the real truth, he never should have been starting anyway. And either Dan should have known that as the great MLB that he was after watching BY's game tape, or someone else is making the call and Dan is just rubberstamping that decision.  Either way, doesn't matter. We're screwed because we've devoted 2 years of resources to build around a player that didn't put in the work in the off season after one of the worst NFL QB seasons ever.

      Offensive Starters (Where are they found in the draft)

      By BrianS · Posted

      Something I find interesting is that you are more likely to find successful players as UDFA's than you are to find them with a single pick in any round past 3.  Those 3rd round compensatory choices?  Largely worthless.  Yes, I get it, there are a lot more UDFA's than there are drafted players in later rounds.  Basically, if you're fishing for starters you are simply not going to find anything in Rounds 4 - 7 with any regularity.

      By CRA · Posted

      the argument that Dan Morgan was assistant GM for years while running counter to everything both his bosses signed off on (who look down at him and his staff for info).....is a tough sell.  I feel we do a variant of this every year.  You aren't this bad...becuase of 1 person.  You are this bad because of LOTS of bad people.  It was never just Joe Brady.  Which is why firing him didn't lead to better offense.  It was never just Matt Rhule.  It was never just Fitterer.    As bad as we are, we need to scorch Earth this puppy and quit letting people who were part of making the mess be the designed folks to lead us out of the mess.  when David Tepper and Jim Caldwell found the answer on the roster......it was clear from the jump nothing had really changed.
