How about Wilkes as HC and Reich as OC? 

Reich is the more experienced and successful HC.

It would be Reich/Wilks. We definitely can have both if we play our cards right.

They both love NC, live here full or part time, so the rest should be easy.

Also indicates they are going to move quickly on the 2nd round.

Kaye had previously speculated that if they weren't waiting around for Shane Steichen, they could potentially wrap up their search this week.

Agreed. Wilks as HC/Reich as OC would work, but not the other way around. 

This is an ideal scenario. But who is the DC? Holcomb? 

I have a feeling Wilks is talking to Byron Leftwich. He was his OC in Arizona. But Leftwich was kinda forced on Wilks, since he was there working under Arians before they hired Wilks. That whole staff was kinda weird.

I am only okay with that if that is who Wilks wants. I keep beating this horse but if you constantly have to force coaches on your HC, that isn't the right HC.

I just get a hard time seeing Reich do this.

though some other teams like Jets, Ravens etc are hard after him as OC.

I think if he doesn’t get a HC job this round.  He will next year.

I doubt anyone in the front office would sign off on Wentz coming here. We can certainly do better with whoever we hire.

I don’t mean Wentz coming here. I was wondering how much of Wentz’s success was Pederson and how much was Reich?

Steichen is my favorite choice but also the riskiest. I have to wonder if the team waits until after the Eagles/49ers game on Sunday to make a decision. If the Eagles lose, they might try to grab their guy. Otherwise, onto their fallback.

You may be right, though having ties to Carolina may help our case for him to take that spot...especially if we pay him more than the others. I am not opposed to spending Tepper's money.

To be fair, we don't know for certain that Payton is out.

The Panthers seem to be keeping a pretty tight lid on things.

If the rumors from Denver are correct I think it's down to Shaw and Quinn there. 

 

But yea the Panthers have been tight lipped.

If Reich doesn't get a head coaching position, and Shane Steichen gets a HC job, Reich could very well be back to being the OC of the Eagles.

I think there is so much chaff being thrown out that it's hard to tell the real information from the garbage. Whether than is intentional or accidental is a mystery.
