Ron as DC

I believe any DC candidate should be a strong with HC experience.   No reason to settle for less. One that is capable of coaching any scheme.  

Ron does fit those requirements,  although so do others. 

Ron wouldn't be a bad choice, although the search, if there is to be one,  needs to be fair and thorough,  and let the best candidate win the position.  

It's going to come down to whoever they can convince to take it. It's the same situation they faced with trying to find a headcoach.

I'm not buying Peyton and Harbaugh wanted the job here.

Word has it that the Jets will give him the first crack of the HC job for them. Just leave that here...  

Ron’s strength is a culture builder, perfect for stopping a disaster of an org and get them close to normal. Then someone else will have to take over to take them from normalized to good. Ron is not a bad choice for the Jets, but I’m not sure they have the patience to start doing things the right way.

I think we’ll have a decent chance to get Saleh as he’s friends with Canales, good change of scenery for him, and turning around the disaster of a defense that is the Panthers would set him up for a future second chance at a HC job. And he would get paid really well.

Maybe Harbaugh. I think the drive to get back into the NFL was probably fairly strong. Also the challenge presented here would satisfy that competitive edge on him.

I would be in agreement about Peyton.

I would be a little surprised if we have a well-known DC. It will take someone looking for a particular challenge, or someone looking for their big break.

I think he used Tepper to get the Chargers gig.

Very likely. I mean he is back on the West Coast. He went to a team that had some pieces in place but had underachieved. On the other hand, it's all just speculation since he was never really considered here, or offered the job, as far as we know.

He was out as soon as he heard about the Monday morning meetings.

100%.  You got a trainwreck? Well, you hire a Fox, Ron, etc type.  You want over the hump? You replace those types.  Often you can't just jump to the over the hump types because they often aren't good with the pooshow.   Wilks is an example of that mold as well.  

there are some unicorns.  I think Dan Campbell might be an example but rare.

It would be no established HC's first choice, unless that coach just wants to truly rebuild a franchise.

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
