Doesn't Zac Taylor call the plays in Cincinnati? 

As far as the general public is concerned yes, he does call the plays. Just like any other situation where the HC is calling plays but still has an OC, who knows what that mechanism looks like behind the scenes.

I had read something about Callahan giving us a leg up to get Tee. That's cool, but I still want us to draft a quick-twitch route runner in the draft.

I like that you put route runner.  it seems we don't value this trait too much.  We are looking at players that perform well in college but do not have the route running skills necessary for the NFL. 

I'd rather a good route running speedster than a player that might be faster but runs poor routes.

I at least hope we get more information soon regarding second interviews. Interesting to remember last year Gannon and Steichen got hired like the day after the Super Bowl. So if the Ravens make a run to the Super Bowl which they're favored to do, and we end up targeting one of their coordinators an official announcement won't be made until mid February. Which is fine, I really hope we're in no rush to hire a coach just to hire one.

Not sure it's gonna be today because of the games.

Tomorrow morning, maybe...

Callahan has been on the head coaching radar for a while now.

Of the GM list, Halaby is the one I'd absolutely not want. The Athletic story about him being part of the toxic atmosphere that helped force Doug Pederson out in Philly reads like an even worse version of the "Hunger Games" story from the Panthers this year.

Brandon Brown would be my favorite at the moment, but I'd hire Dan Morgan before I'd want Halaby.

I agree, a bit uncomfortable with the whole Eagles org and the culture.

    • Taking only players from the sheet that are realistically available in or after the listed round, I’d like… 1st: DT Caleb Banks (Styles not realistic) 2nd: LB Jacob Rodriguez 3rd: OT Best available from Bowry, Barber, and Casey 4th: CB Daylen Everette 5th: S Jalen Huskey 6th: RB Adam Randall 7th: IOL Best available from Lemieux, Dawkins, Leausa, and Brose   I know nothing about some of the players listed, but it seems like that would be the best way it could fall for now. I’m sure the list of who we meet will change a ton, and there will also be players we don’t meet with to keep quiet. I’d love to pick up Randall in the late rounds. 
    • Not what I said. They know within the building why we aren't utilizing TEs more. If the rumors were true that we were seriously pursuing a couple of decent receiving TEs that strongly points toward a lack of quality receiving TEs currently on the roster. Does that mean we consider drafting one at 19? I don't know, but it wouldn't shock me and if we did there's only one guy it would be. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see TE drafting somewhere in the first three rounds. 
    • Yeah, I don’t know. Tepper was behind the Bryce selection. Behind firings and hiring over his lack of development.  He doesn’t have to literally tell them their hands are tied for them to know this. It is in the air constantly. The Canales Bryce play calling was even portrayed by more than one person as Canales failing Bryce, instead of Bryce being responsible for his own performance (except when he does well, then it is all him). Now they have an extra coach in, to help the new OC get results from this QB.  The atmosphere is not welcoming to prototypical young QBs that have talent. You get Jake Plummer types or old vets. I think we are stuck.
