So who might we look at if, as hoped, this offseason sees some turnover on the coaching staff?

 

Some possibilities (with varying levels of availability)

 

OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR

 

Ken Zampese - Quarterback Coach, Cincinnati Bengals (would require permission)

Rick Dennison - Quarterback Coach, Baltimore Ravens (would need permission and could mean changing systems)

Greg Roman - Offensive Coordinator, San Francisco 49ers (likely system change; not that big a fan, honestly)

Marty Mornhinweg - Offensive Coordinator, New York Jets (would mean switching to WCO)

Bill Callahan - Offensive Line Coach, Dallas Cowboys (older, hasn't done well of late)

 

 

SPECIAL TEAMS COACH

 

Bruce DeHaven - Assistant Special Teams Coach, Carolina Panthers (the easy option)

Brad Seely - Special Teams Coach, San Francisco 49ers (Niners next coach may want to keep him)

Bobby April - Special Teams Coach, Raiders (Raiders probably want to keep him)

Joe DeCamillis - Special Teams Coach, Chicago Bears (could be in high demand)

 

 

QUARTERBACK COACH

 

John Ramsdell - Offensive Assistant, Carolina Panthers (again, the easy choice, if he wants the job)

Geep Chryst - Quarterback Coach, San Francisco 49ers (spent several years coaching here, could also be an OC candidate)

Matt Cavanaugh - Quarterback Coach, Chicago Bears (being looked at for the Browns OC job)

Dowell Logains - Quarterback Coach, Cleveland Browns (not all that experienced)

Kyle Shanahan is a free agent OC with experience with mobile QBs. Would be my #1 option personally.

 

Shanahan right now is looking at HC options or maybe a package deal somewhere with his dad.

 

It's possible, but seems highly unlikely.

 

 

I hear this guy named Rob Chudzinski had some success with Cam once...

 

Oh hell no.

 

If we're gonna take from the Colts, I'd go after Clyde Christensen.

I don't think he gets hired as a HC this offseason personally. If the Elder Shanahan comes back, then yeah I can see him going with him. I could also see him wanting to develop his own offense away from his father however.

Zampese for OC- he grew up in the Coryell family and there isn't a doubt in my mind that he could get Cam looking like his old self from his rookie year. I still can't believe we hired Jeff Davidson over this guy.

DeCamillis for ST (DeHaven stays the assistant)- one of the best in the business, nothing else to say.

Ramsdell for QB- The guy has worked with Phillip Rivers, Kurt Warner, and he even made Marc Bulger into a serviceable starter. Easy choice.

I'd definitely look at him, and Gettleman used to work with Mike, so who knows?

I wouldn't argue with any of those choices.

i don't want to switch to a WCO. way too complicated to learn....esp. from a verbiage standpoint. it's ridiculous. not a knock on cam, btw. i think he's bright. i just don't want complicated.

 

i would like for ramsdell to play a larger role. expanding his role to QB coach and having him work on the whole passing game would be great. i don't know about him for OC, but he could help a lot with the passing game and taking cam to another level.

 

dehaven as ST coach should be a no brainer.

 

aside from him, though, i'm not really excited about any of those options.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
