Wilks to be promoted to DC pending McDermott hire

Sweet!!! Sucks to lose McD, but Wilks should slide in nicely.  Did some wonderful things with JNo, Bradberry, Coleman, etc.  Give him Adams/Hooker or Barnett/Thomas on the edge and watch this defense return to prominence. 

Next questions now - Will Washington follow McDermott to Buffalo? That would be a huge blow if he does.  

Who takes over for Wilks.... saw some people saying Tillman or Harris.

Very excited to see how he does. He is one of the best coaches in the NFL (I think) and I hope he doesn't move up to being a HC too  quickly, because he has the chops for that too.

I'll be interested to see if he brings in some new faces even beyond replacing guys that McD takes with him.

I'm excited to see his take on Rivera's base defense.

Probably assistant defensive backs coach Curtis Fuller. Would be great to see Tillman get on the coaching staff officially as an assistant.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
