Can Tepper find anyone better than Wilks?

I don't  want a great offensive or defensive mind as a head coach. I want a leader of men who knows and understands football and who does not have an ego when it comes to his colleagues.  I want an offensive genius for an OC and a defensive genius for a DC. They can manage and micro manage as much as they'd like. A HC DOES NOT have that luxury

This.

I feel that we should not be moving on from someone who can motivate and maximize the talents of our players. Wilks clearly has this team together and put a fire under them. That's special and something we've NEVER seen Rhule do.

Sure, there are definitely better offensive gurus out there, but they could come in and fail to achieve the level of heart Wilks brings out of these players.

I feel that if we just upgraded our OC and DC to those gurus, but let a leader of men lead this team ala Wilks, we'd be one damn tough team to beat.

For once do our research and try and interview the best possible candidates. If he thinks Wilks is the answer then make it happen. I have an extremely hard time believing the answer has been on our staff the whole time. I really want us to look into some offensive options.

I think it comes down to if tepper thinks sean payton is obtainable

if not then I feel like we go with wilkes. 

DeMeco Ryans will be available but I doubt we'd go after him with Wilkes already winning the locker room over in the interim and having high levels of success as a DC in his own right

As long as he doesn't dump Wilks for Quinn. That's the only truly cringe hire that's been floated in the media

The issue will be, if somebody takes the coordinator, can they continue that run of offense? If they drop… that’s the problem. Offensive coordinators who do well get poached by other teams. 

 

That why we create the OC Apprenticeship Program. The apprentice learns the O with the understanding the when the present OC leaves, he's the man. Then he hires his own apprentice. Rinse and repeat. We would never run out of OCs. lol

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
