That is really gonna be an issue with any of the non-offensive guru candidates, TBH.

What almost no candidate has is the established track record of success that Harbaugh does.

His OC/DC during his 49er days were Vic Fangio and Greg Roman.   Fangio is available, I think and Roman is about to lose Jackson in Baltimore, so he may be willing to walk.

Jim using Tepper as leverage to get a stupid amount of money from Denver is his best play here 

Which is probably what’s happening here

Maybe, but I dunno, man. I don't think Denver is a good situation. Unless Harbaugh is absolutely sure he can help Russ bounce back. I see that more as a Payton thing than a Harbaugh thing.

No to number 3 at pick 8 or 9. Sorry but the history of 1st round TEs is terrible. Hockenson is finally having a really good year in his fourth year. The top 8 TEs this year are Hockenson, two 3rd rounders, two 2nd rounders, one 5th rounder, one 4th rounder and one 1st rounder that was signed as a FA after a disappointing 5 years with the team who drafted him. Njoku is #9, but he’s had a pretty disappointing 6 years. The next 6 TEs are 2nd, 4th, 5th, 3rd, UDFA and 2nd.

Three 1st round picks in the top 15 TEs by yards and one of the three is having a good year with a new team. Until this year, all 3 of the 1st round TEs were disappointing based on being 1st round picks. History isn’t kind to the past decade of 1st round TEs.

Yea, I'm in the "never draft a TE high ever" camp.

It feels hella disrespectful to be talking to coaches about a vacancy while you have a head coach preparing the team for a game. This conversation couldnt wait ONE WEEK? 

Pat McAfee had a really good analogy about how the NFL works - he compared players (and by extension coaches) to a stick of gum.

A team will chew you until the flavour is gone then spit you out and reach for another stick - it might not be as flavourful, but they'll always be more gum.

It's a cutthroat business - everyone who's in the league knows this.

Yeah neither do I. I don’t think the Harbaugh/Tepper meeting leak is by mistake though. Have it known you just met with maybe the most aggressive, wealthiest owners in the league right out of the gate

Sign Harbaugh 

Sign Brady

Draft Meyer in the first 

Superb owl

LOL, if Brady is anywhere else besides TB next year it'll probably be with the Raiders, seeing as how his old buddy McDaniel is the head coach there.  Also could see him going to the 49ers for a year.  Unless hes just always dreamed of playing for Harbaugh or something I don't see that happening.  

 

Stranger things have happened in the NFL though, so who the hell really knows?

oh definitely. Harbaugh is cunning and I have no doubt he has a plan for all of this in one way or another.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
