I will make this prediction, our new GM will set a new bar for the organization.

He will be worse than Scott Fitterer.

That’s such a low bar to clear. I mean Scott had no working football knowledge. If the new GM even looks at a fans mock draft and uses that he’d do way better than SF ever did.

Excluding Ben Johnson...pecking order could be something like this:

1. Mike Macdonald

2. Bobby Slowik

3. Dave Canales

4. Promote Ejiro Evero

5A/B. Brian Callahan/Frank Smith (Don't know enough about and they don't call plays/unsure about them)

 

From what I have read about MM over the weekend he just seems like the dude.  Almost like a cant miss type candidate.

 

I think slowik needs more seasoning

 

canales is probably who we end up with

I just don't think there's enough info out there to have confidence in Slowik.

I want us to hire "consistently good", not "small sample good".

But considering all these openings we might have to accept our best option could be rolling the dice on someone a little bit.

I have said before but I would not be surprised if Slowik returns to the Texans for one more season. 
Especially if the Texans somehow make it to the AFC Championship.

I've seen it reported that DeMeco has essentially told Slowik he should come back for another year. Here's him telling the media something to that effect.

That Texans team bloomed so quickly w/a young coordinator in Slowik with a young HC Ryans, it may feel very exciting for them to build a new powerhouse there.  Can see the energy around staying and building a perennial SB contender with Stroud, Anderson, & company. 

That's a legacy (+more) type play to stay.

I get that logic, but we've seen a lot of younger offensive coaches get HC jobs that "weren't ready" in the eyes of many who have become great head coaches.

Sean McVay, Mike McDaniel, Zac Taylor, Matt LeFleur and Kevin O'Connell just to name a few. If anything it's been the older/more experienced coaching hires that have struggled in recent years.

    • TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive. 
    • I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
    • Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
