Assistant Coach Options

[Boltergeist]

They've historically granted interviews for advancement purposes in the past though, have they not?

Yeah - last ones I remember were Chud and Manusky back after the 06 season.

[Mr. Scot]

By the way Bolt, Acee tweeted that Rivera is getting the job.

(no confirmation yet, though; unless you count Glazer)

OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR

- John Ramsdell (QB Coach, Chargers)*

QB COACH

- Ron Turner (WR Coach, Colts)*

RB COACH

- Jim Skipper (former RB Coach, Panthers)

- Kelly Skipper (RB Coach, Raiders)

- Raye

WR COACH

- Ray Sherman (former WR Coach, Cowboys)

TE COACH

- Pete Hoener (TE Coach, 49ers)*

OL COACH

- Clancy Barone (OL Coach, Broncos)*

DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR

- Rob Ryan (DC, Browns)

- Keith Butler (LB Coach, Steelers) Long shot, I know.

DL COACH

- Bryan Cox (DL Coach, Browns)*

LB COACH

- Greg Manusky (DC, 49ers)

DB COACH

- Lionel Washington (DB Coach, Raiders)

SPECIAL TEAMS COACH

- Kurt Schottenheimer (ST Coach, 49ers)

- Dave Toub (ST Coach, Bears)* Would love to have him but I don't see Chicago letting him go to Carolina for the same position unless his contract is up at the end of the season.

Those would be my choices right now. I don't see the Chargers letting assistents walk unless they are making a upward move.

Put this in the other thread, but may need to cross off any Charger candidates:

The Union Tribune's article makes it seem certain that Ramsdell and Joiner WON'T be allowed to come over with Rivera:

[Mr. Scot]

Actually, it only means they have to give permission, which they've been willing to do in the past.

Chris Tabor would be a top candidate for the Panthers' special teams job, according to sources.

He's Toub's assistant. Thought I had his name in the OP but apparently I don't

Don't know that I trust LaCanfora, but he'd be a reasonable candidate.

Ramsdell signed a 3 year deal in 2007, his deal will be up

edit: can't find the link

[Mr. Scot]

Kevin Acee is now saying he doesn't think the Chargers will give permission to any of their current guys.

Hate to hear that, but can't say I blame them.

Wow, if a QB coach has a shot at OC and you say no; that creates an unhappy staff.

[carpanfan96]

IF the Charger's not letting assistants go is true then my choice for OC would be Tom Clements

[Ruff]

I wouldn't mind getting Jeff Rodgers back as ST Coordinator.

Would that be possible?

I think it was a 2 year deal in 2008

Only thing I can find is this... http://www.kffl.com/player/13974/NFL :S

[Ramblin' Willie]

I want the OC or quarterback coach that can talk Luck out of staying at Stanford and come with him to the Panthers!
