I don’t think this would be a quick fix pick although I don’t think this team has quick fix in them. I think he’d have to learn on the job a bit since he has zero head coaching experience minus his assistant head coaching for the offense with the Vikings A decade ago. He coached Adrian Peterson as well.
 

Just from watching a couple of YouTube interviews with him some of my impressions: He is most definitely a leader of men. Just the way he carries himself. He has a lot of charisma. He’s smart, knows modern offenses and would know how to use cmc. He definitely helped develop Mahomes with that raw arm talent. Talks about how much work he put in with him. He seems to not have an ego and would try to surround himself with good coaches. He goes to bat for his players but expects excellence from everybody from the starters to the backups. He lives and breathes football. Reid runs a tight ship, lots of planning for practices and in game adjustments. I think Eric would follow that as well. He really looks up to Andy.
 

I do think he has a little bit of a learning curve so we’d have to be patient especially with all the uncertainty with our team. I would be pretty excited about this hire though.

also his catchphrase would be “at the end of the day” like Rivera’s “missed opportunities” and fox’s “it is what it is.“

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
