this is all bad news IMO. 

good luck attracting a quality HC....when the owner is going to dictate his staff.  Again.   

Pairing a known a new head coach with a quality DC is sound reasoning. If the new coach doesn’t understand that maybe he’s not the right guy.

We’re hanging onto Evero because 1.) he’s good and 2.) so we can get a comp pick for him next offseason when he does get hired away. The rule requires that minority coaches have to be on staff for at least 2 seasons to count towards the third round pick compensation. I don’t like the rule but it’s what’s going on.

HCs should be able to hire their own staff.  People they work well with and are bought into the same vision.  Generally speaking.  That's the ideal approach.  You can find exceptions to anything.   

We just went through a cycle with the owner/GM dictating a lot of what Frank's world would look like.  Game of Thrones I think was the reporting of how that went.  But yeah, let's keep doing the same thing.

Again, another coach that a new HC would be blessed to hire or retain.  IF a new coach wants him im sold on the idea.  Evero might not be sold on the idea though.  Even more another team might be sold on him as their next HC so that would put the defense in limbo yet again.  I do admire the fact that the coaches that the team would want to keep around are coaches that are actually worth it.  If I saw it kicked around that we want to retain Tremble's Uncle as TE coach I'd be a bit perturbed.  We could and frankly probably will do much worse hiring a new DC, which will be churned in 2 seasons because of poor performance, much like ST if we hire away from Tabor.  New HC has to make some good hires, and not just their college buddies or familiar faces from austere coaching situations they have been in at one point in time.  The DC and ST here are kind of layups for first time HCs.

If it's a HC we are desperate for like Johnson he will have to option of picking his guy or rolling with Evero.  As involved as Johnson is with the offense I could see someone like him leaving the defense with Evero.  There is nothing wrong with being "intrigued" by the idea since our defense has overperformed.  As long as we don't demand it from our new HC it's fine IMO.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
