He had a top 5 Defense in San Diego as the DC and it took him 8 years to be hired as a head coach.  Junior Seau and company--there has to be a reason.  When I talked to him at OTAs, he was not impressive.  Remember, he made the comment about being a left handed left tackle and some of his game management decisions were super stupid--and with Cam Newton at QB, he never had back to back winning seasons.  Now take Mike Tomlin--he has never had a losing season--Kenny Pickett, etc.  at QB.  That is a coach.

 

Ron is a great guy...but as a coach, hes really stoneheaded....in an old school way. He squandered 2 hall of famers careers at the same time...

My top 3 are:

  • Robert Saleh
  • Lovie Smith
  • Leslie Frazier

However realistically I think the Top 3 are:

  • Ken Norton Jr. 
  • Aaron Curry
  • Kacy Rodgers

Norton did a better job than Clint Hurtt in his time as DC in Seattle. He at least had a Top 10 unit a few times. Curry is a promising candidate and has a lot of upside. I think Kacy Rodgers is underestimated as well. He has developed a lot of young players and the one spot on Tampa's D that hasn't fallen backwards is their DL/Run D. 

I was on the Frazier bandcamp too until I saw this, as well as a reddit thread reviewing his defense as very vanilla. His defenses rank high though, but not glowing reviews from his former players apparently:

My dark horse/long shot hope: Todd Bowles. There were headlines about him being in the hot seat all summer, and seems like he's in a playoffs or bust situation from what I've read. I think the Bucs would be dumb to let him go, but if they do make a foolish move, we should sweep him up in a heartbeat. His defenses are always nasty and aggressive and ranking in the single digits, when he's the coordinator. Plus Canales would be comfortable with having him around. Just my two cents.

I think Evero is coming back for one more season. He’s been coaching with a group of practice squad players most of the season. His top draft pick since he arrived here is a 3rd round line backer. This is the draft they get him some help. 

Yep he’s playing with 4th string and practice squad players and we expect him to stop the run lol

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
