The two jobs I read he was interested in as DC was Green Bay and LA Rams.

 

GB just filled their spot yesterday.   

We could trade him and Burns to the Rams as a package deal. The would make everyone happy.

Make the same offer as they did last time and we’ll throw in Evero this time around. That would be awesome lol

Great news if he wants to be here! The defense should hopefully get better just by injured players returning and maybe an addition along the line. If the defense stays solid and in the same scheme they can focus more on retooling the offense.

Very philosophical.

Rebuilding, not retooling.  There's no tools to retool. The only tool on the team is Tepper.

How is Tepper holding him hostage? Didn't he interview for HC positions? 

He’s blocking him front interviewing for DC jobs that he’d probably like to take.

Only think I find funny in all this is how many people are okay with forcing someone to be where they don't want to be when they wouldn't do the same in their own work place

He’s not blocking him. The standard is that teams aren’t allowed to unilaterally interview and hire coaches under contract with other teams for lateral positions or demotions. If Evero wants to breach his contract, then he can. The contract will have very clear terms laid out for breach by either party and what the penalties are. Evero signed the contract of his own free will.

Canales basically confirmed that Evero will be back.

I really like Dave's attitude and energy. I get why they picked him.

[Daeavorn]

Also Morgan looks like an intense dude, I kinda like him more now that I've seen him speak. He really just wants to get to it.

I don't think Evero is stomping his feet or will be a problem even if it's true that he would rather be able to pick his next job this year instead of next.  We don't even know if he would rather be DC of another team.  This is more speculation because we have blocked him from 3 other lateral moves for DC but he has had quite a few HC interviews.  A few of them were twice with the same club.

This also happens a lot in the corporate world outside of the NFL if you are under contract with a company and are considered an asset. 

Evero strikes me as the type of guy that doesn't waste time with things he can't control or negative emotions that don't further him in his goals or doing his job well.

He could very well be extremely happy with staying as the defense has a lot of talent and we'll add a few more pieces.  Year two with talent could be a better position to be in that a new DC of another team where he starts all over and has to install his system. 

We don't know his feelings and I expect he will not tell us.  We may get a "I'm going to always give my best in whatever opportunity is in front of me" and I think he'll coach that way no matter his true feelings.

The Giants, Dolphins and Jaguars requested interviews for their DC position. We blocked Eviro from interviewing with them. I don’t know how else to explain that to you.

He interviewed with the falcons for HC.
