Speculation on Steve Wilks

I'd prefer him as a DB coach, but with Richard Rodgers now manning that post it's hard to imagine Rivera moving him out of the way.

Wilks being fired could technically also free up Al Holcomb to return as linebacker coach, though I don't honestly see any benefit to dumping Steve Russ. Of all the defensive coaches, you'd have the weakest case for firing him.

Not no but HELL NO. Dont want bad coaches back. Hes as and as Wash

Wilks' defense was 7th in the league. I want to see what his defense can do with a better (Worley and Coleman-less) secondary.

Hopefully part of Tepper's honest talks with Rivera is building a better staff back up...which means moving guys like Rodgers out of the way and bringing Wilks back as Secondary/Assistant HC.  Get Wilks back in his old position, hell bring Norman back when he gets cut, and let them coach up and mentor Bradberry/Jackson.

      Sorsby and the supplemental draft

      I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.

      I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.

      Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
