Coaching interview updates


Mr. Scot
 Share

Recommended Posts

My preference at this point:

Steichen

Dorsey

Ryans (they said both parties may "circle back" later in the process)

Kafka

Wilks

Reich (because I think we could get him as OC if Wilks retained)

Broncos DC

Caldwell

Payton (If rumored 2 1sts from Panthers is true. If only one future 1st or less, he rises to top 2)

***My top 4 are close to interchangeable. A lot of potential and unknown with each of them. Similar candidates with differing approaches. Hopeful we choose the right one.

He has interviews scheduled with 2 teams this weekend.  Not with the Panthers.

I think Ryans is giving Carolina the stiff arm. He's somehow managed to schedule interviews with the other 4 vacancies today through Saturday but couldn't find a time to interview with the Panthers?

Is there word on how any of these interviews have gone so far?

All I've seen is that Reich impressed via Sheena Quick.

No word on how Steichen was received via vid conference, but I think we're following up with an in-person for him if I recall.  Didn't hear anything on Caldwell (wouldn't put too much stock in that) or Evero.  

Kafka's interview on Sunday may be once they're officially out of contention (or) it could be pushed if they win.  If the latter is the case, Steichen could get flown in sooner than expected.  If the former is and it goes well, we could hear news early next week.

I wouldn’t read much into the “2 firsts” for SP. That’s their initial asking price, which is intentionally inflated from what the likely final price will be. It’s conceivable we give up 9th overall though, which I am not a fan of

I think it was said to be a more logistical issue last week. Plus, he probably sees that a primary focus is on offensive guys.

    • The only WR that makes sense in the first is KC Concepcion. He fills multiple roles in the offense and is a PR specialist.
    • That depends upon what happens with receiver this year and what happens with free agency next year. Hopefully we'll be good by addressing receiver this year (regardless of whether we snag one in the first round or not). If we don't and are unlucky enough for to Coker get hurt (and X solidifies his bust status, and JAGs be JAGing), then we may be fùçked! But I assume that Dan Morgan and company will feel compelled to look for answers in free agency and use that to set up the draft just like this offseason.  Reality is not as simple as we drafted this position X times in a row in the first. If you're suggesting that we could draft a position in the first four times in a row, that's not likely. At some point probability has to be taken into account. I mean, how many years in a row can you be unlucky with one position?  As I've said at times before, you try and plan for the long term personnel-wise and cap-wise of course, but things happen so, in a sense, you still must look at each season--each "team" if you will--unto itself each season. So many things can happen between now and then. A major industry can profoundly impact the bigger picture (like this year), someone could offer you a trade proposal that you can't resist, players might not have progressed to your expectations--you know, things like that. Moreover, you have to be aware of the dynamics of each draft class, including the fact that there could be unexpected draft risers and fallers during the college season. That's a lot. As of today, we expect the 2027 draft to have more exclamations than question marks at OT and the QB class and WR group is expected to be exceptionally strong. We'll have a clearer picture of whatever we'll have to focus on next year at this time.  Lastly, keep in mind that there's always more than one way to get you to where you want to go. The yearly puzzle is not static, it's dynamic and complex.   
    • I'm fine with Thieneman or McNeil-Warren.. Rodriguez won't last until 51 so they would have to trade up, he may end up being a late first round selection. Anthony Hill Jr. is more likely to be available. I don't expect defense in the first round now after the murmurings of finding another weapon for Bryce.
