I don't get the love for Payton... Yes, he is a good offensive mind, but the guy had Brees for what, 15 years? And only managed 1 Superbowl out of it that was a gift from the NFL for Hurricane Katrina destroying LA.

I think there are really good offensive minds available that can be just as good that won't cost us a first...

No coach who's won a Super Bowl with one team has ever won another with a new team.

Most don't even get back.

Not a completely fair statement seeing as the majority of coaches who win a SB end up coaching that team until they retire, not many move onto other HC jobs afterwards, especially in recent times.

Since 2000, the only coaches to win a SB and then coach another team are Gruden, McCarthy, and Pederson, and 2 of them are still in the playoffs right now.

Just one super bowl?  Yeah the guy is a bum for sure

Andy Reid got to a SB with the Eagles and again with Chiefs and won. Probably best example. 

I view Payton in the same light as Parcells, Holmgren, Coughlin, and Carroll. Remember, Sean Payton came from the Bill Parcells tree which would help this team with grit and discipline. Nothing is certain, however Payton most likely would have this team in the playoffs in year 2. Worst case scenario, he would set this franchise in the right direction, which is more than I can say about an unproven commodity or rookie head coach.

Said it earlier but it applies here...

There's always some unicorn, generally a head coach or a quarterback, who fans latch on to thinking "if we just get this guy, we're guaranteed to win it all".

It's never that simple, and a good number of those guys wind up going somewhere else and failing.

Right, but there are examples of good coaches who have had success with their second team.  Andy Reid went to a SB with Philly and won one with KC.  Do you think had he won the SB with Philly he would have been doomed to fail in KC?  Pete Carroll is another one.  Got real close in New England and won one in Seattle.  Look at what Doug Pederson is doing? You think he would have been a bad hire now?

I truly do see where the value in statistics are.  However there are some statistics that no matter how coincidental the results are, offer nothing of value.   This is one of them.   It's based on the individual.

What's the most you'd be willing to give up to the Aints in a trade for him? Payton himself says it will be a mid or later first-round pick. Would you give up that (or the equivalent value considering our pick is higher)? If not, what's the most you'd offer?

Personally, I would give up the 49ers' 2nd and 3rd which should be pretty close to late 1st value. Getting Payton while keeping 9 overall and our early 2nd round pick would be great. Yes I know many here have no interest in him, this is for those who would want him if he'd come here.

 

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2023/01/16/sean-payton-if-a-team-hires-me-the-saints-will-ask-for-a-mid-to-late-first-round-pick/

I personally want someone other than Sean Payton as the Panthers new head coach.

There is no way I want to see them give up a true 1st rd pick for him.

However, if the Panthers did decide to go after Payton, I think the 49ers' 2nd and 3rd you suggested would be a fair value.

With a Hall of Fame QB...

Hell, Rivera reached as many Super Bowls as Payton did only having Cam half the number of years Payton had Brees. And I think nobody in this forum is calling Rivera a good coach...

 

Is he a bum? No.

Do I think he is overrated? Kind of

Should we trade a 1st round pick (or 2nd + 3rd or whatever terrible ideas I have seen in this thread)? Hell no

Why did Payton take the interview if he doesn't want to come here? Be pretty easy for him to say, "thanks, but no thanks."

Doesn't hurt to listen plus having lots of interviews and pitting one against the other helps raise the price. Doesn't mean he actually wants all those jobs.

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
