no, I'm not a douche. I'm just saying some people like to make nothing out of something. Too many who wanna be Adam Schefter on here. You feel me?

Bro, I like all your draft prospect insight, but in all honesty that's all speculation too.

Gotcha, but he'd be a good option.

Oh I'd love it, but virtually no chance.

But that's what the draft is for: mocks. 

 

What happens when Al Holcomb stays? Just wasted talks. Really wasted talks. 

Should someone make a thread about possible Ricky Proehl following McD to Buffalo? Working with Sammy Watkins. 

Just wait and let it actually happen first. Some guys want to be the first to break news on here. Carrying it too far by making speculation now.

He's interested in joining the Steelers asap since Joey Porter got put on Admin Leave:

Very good suggestion.

I would love to see this.  I think it would be interesting to see how good he could be in a 4-3 defense.  Working with Dom Capers in the same defense he played in Carolina didn't hurt his success.

Conceivably a better fit since all of Greene's experience is in a 3-4.

Throw in another strong possibility...

Dave McGinnis is a longtime defensive coach who's had a lot of success in the NFL. At one point, he was head coach of the Arizona Cardinals. More recently, he held the assistant head coach title with the Rams.

Why would he be considered here?

Well, a long time ago (mid 80s to early 90s) he spent about nine years as the linebackers coach for the Chicago Bears. One of his pupils during that time was a guy who later went on to become a linebacker coach himself, then a defensive coordinator and eventually a head coach. As a head coach, he got nicknamed after a type of boat.

(you might have heard of him)

Working against him? McGinnis is a tad up there at age 65.  But if he's still up to the task, he's always had a great defensive mind (one that Kuechly would surely pick).

Babich would still be my best guess, but McGinnis seems like he could be a possibility too.
