I would like to see people leave this thread for news or comments specifically based on informed speculation.  In other words, if you want to attack and get into arguments with other Huddlers, go away.

Having said that, I think the longer we drag things out, the more I like the chances that the next head coach is still in the playoffs.

That was the original purpose

Is the FO done with the first round of interviews now that Payton's is complete?  No more initial ones, just follow up, correct?

They requested an interview with Kellen Moore.

There's also plans for Shane's Steichen when that becomes possible.

Are teams needing an HC just waiting for Payton to go somewhere before they start hiring? Is that why everyone is taking so long? 

Nah, I think most are interested in either Payton or coaches who were (until yesterday) still in the playoffs and couldn't be interviewed for a second round yet.

Houston: Rumor is they're after either Gannon or Ryans, both still in playoffs and can't do 2nd interviews until 1/30

Arizona: Wanted to settle their GM search first; interviewing Flores today and Payton on Thursday

Denver: Likely to be either Payton or Quinn - Quinn didn't interview until last Friday and Broncos in process of setting up their second round with their finalists

Indianapolis: Who fuging knows lol

I’m not saying he isn’t a great coaching prospect. I’m saying here we go again with a coach with no HC experience, and we will be in purgatory for the next two seasons. Hopefully, we can compete in 2025.

Giants, Dolphins and Vikings seem pretty happy in Purgatory with their coaches with no experience this year.

Literally every reporter who is quote tweeted here is just throwing poo at the wall, hoping it sticks.  So many damn conflicting reports its starting to feel like the whole Watson saga all over again.  So much disinformation and PR warfare going on, thats its almost impossible to know whats really going on.  Which is, of course, by design. 

This. I don't get why some of you believe in Twitter so much. You know what Tweet we'll want to see? PAYTON AGREES WITH BLAH BLAH BLAH. Until then it's a bunch of rumors, but some of you want to get some secret insider tid bit before it goes national. Neat, if some Tweet DID let the beans spill ... you and we'd know like an hour at most before the rest of the NFL world lol. Get off Twitter, go run some errands, come back, see if anything HAPPENED, and go on about your life. I'm really shocked Mr. Scot takes Twitter so seriously. He's older than all of us. I'd expect a teen to take Twitter as legit factual news. Not someone who didn't grow up with social media.

    • Then Dan Morgan should be on the hot seat. Wasting a first and second rounder in a pivotal year is unforgivable.
    • They addressed D in free agency in a big way (Edge, ILB) and they signed a starting OT and a player they think could be a swing OT in reserve.  They have claimed to be adding "Weapons" to the offense.  I think that will be their focus.  I agree 100% that we need a T, but a reserve, developmental OT in a weak (at the top) draft does little to address that weakness in 2026.  If they are telling the truth, a reserve developmental OT is not a weapon.  The will draft a WR if that statement and their actions in free agency are accurate.  That does not mean we ignore OT--I just dont see where he takes a T if he is filling holes. As a coach, I am concerned about OT, but when I look at the roster, I see bigger immediate problems. S: We are OK if you want Scott for another season. Not ideal.  There is also talk of Smith-Wade being moved to S.  If so, we need a CBN. DT: Who took Robinson's job?  He played a lot.  All DTs (NT-DE) were average to below average, (except Derrick Brown) including 280 lb wharton.  We need a DT (my preference for the first pick, to be honest)  I am guessing a DT will be our third rounder? ILB:  Unless we want Wallace out there in coverage, we need a compliment to Lloyd.  I think Lloyd's starting mate is the second rounder. (speculating)  This pick is likely to occur in the second round because it is for a starting position. WR:  Some are fine with what we have.  sIn 2025, Coker had 3  TDs on 394 yards.  Legette had 3 TDs and 363 yards--and only 1 drop.  I love Coker, but neither should make us feel secure about WR with those numbers.  A lot depends on both stepping up in 2026, but Canales has been screaming weapons.  Could he mean Tight end?  That depends on how good they feel about Coker and XL. Center:  You can get a player ready to start relatively early in the middle rounds.  Very similar to the OT situation but I think C may be more of a priority right now than OT.   Tight End:  They seem to like Delp from Georgia who projects round 4. CB:  There was some talk of moving Smith-Wade to S (to learn for a season with Scott, maybe?) and that might require adding CB depth inside. Tackle?:  I agree that we need one, but this draft is simply not strong at the top at T.  The ONLY way to get a quality OT that is still developmental is to take one in round 1.  Canales has all but said we are not doing that.  But after the first 40 picks or so, they pretty much level out for a good while.  The fifth rounders and the third rounders are about the same.  For that Reason, I am guessing (It is all guesses) that they take someone like the OT from Boston College or Memphis.  Work with the OL coach (OT specialist) for a season.  I dunno
