He actually has more experience as a QB coach than he does as a RB coach. He had never previously been a RB coach until we gave him the job. He's previously been a QB coach at Alabama and for the Raiders. 

Total of three years, two of which were as an assistant quarterback coach. He has only one year in a full time role.

We interviewed three guys that were far more experienced and had successful track records. Plus the idea of keeping Peetz in the first place was that he was so good with McCaffrey.

This is not a move I understand at all.

I don't care what a guy has done, I care about what he can do. Everyone has to work their way up the ranks. I'd rather have a young, hungry, ambitious guy working his ass off than a retread cashing a check living off of reputation and past successes.

I'm never going to freak out about a position coach hire. The Vince Lombardis of the world aren't pounding down the door begging for a position coach gig. LOL!

You don't understand the move of moving a guy into a position he has more experience.  Specifically with using the RPO?

Like Ken Dorsey?

We could have at least placed a phone call to Jim Caldwell.

I get the impression its more of a staff shuffle to make everyone fit considering the fact that I think Brady will be the *actual* QB coach.

He had to take a medical leave of absence all last season.

Still, he has interest now. There's speculation he could join the Eagles.

Also worth noting: Remember when we hired Lance Taylor and picked McCaffrey?

We just put in a QB coach that has plenty of experience with Tua Tagovailoa.

      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
