Flame away, not sure if Ricky Proehl is coaching material, but was a helluva receiver, helluva very nice respected, and good person, and could be a step for him to get into the league in a coaching position, doing something that he does know, and was one of the best for quite some time in the league.

He would also be great for the TE's I would think. Just a thought, throwing it out there. It may be for him, or it may not be. It would have to be something he would enjoy doing as much as he enjoyed playing the game and catching the ball for it to become successful though I think.

Moose's days are getting shorter, and thinking long term....Ricky and Moose combo teaching young WR's would be a plus in my book. Organizational friendly, and knowledgeable of the organiztion.

Ricky has my vote, but maybe he's a little to laid back for Fox football. :D

Once again, depends on if they are "Coaching Material". Some can perform on the field, but can't coach worth a damn.

Steve always said that Ricky was the one that taught him how to be a great receiver, running routes and the other things of that nature.

he was mentioned numerous times. He was the only current Giant coach in 2002 that he wanted, and was considered to be the favorite to be OC when Weis stayed with NE (that was apparently very close to happening). He and Skipper were the two position coaches he definitely wanted - you always assumed Williamson would be there. Boudreau and Breaux, I didn't feel like they were more than just guys who stayed, and then they both left a year later.

I think he likes it there, though, and enough to go through coach turnover for it.

Good remembrance of Pope, though he hasn't coached WR since Mississippi in 82.

Obviously, of my group, I'm a Lofton guy. Haskell was fantastic too, but I don't know what his deal is with the team or if it was amicable.

What's your opinion on Richard Mann?

I see today he might come available, and for the most part I don't worry about guys who aren't available (like Jackson in the OP). But, now that he might be?

He was assistant head coach, which is never a bad thing. He's done some solid things with young WR, though his issues with Clayton in TB are uninspiring. I can't hold that against him anymore than I can blame Williamson for the USC guys.

I'd be OK with it. He's experienced, and better than the other options aside from Lofton.

yes because having ties to an organization, being credited with the development of one of the best WRs ever to play the game, and having years of experience playing WR should not be counted....

it should be counted. For what it mattered. And then you move on to professionals when you're hiring a professional.

Hue Jackson might be obtainable after all. The Raiders got permission to interview him for "an unspecified position" per PFT (link).

There's not much on offense that Jackson hasn't coached, and coached well. He last coached receivers in 2006 with the Bengals before becoming OC for the Falcons for one season (Petrino's year).

Edit: Word now that he's likely interviewing for the OC spot, possibly even the head coach. Thus the "promotion" rule applies (which is logical) and so it's unlikely we'd get a shot at him.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
