Lets look at the teams looking for head coaches:

Cleveland Browns- likely going offense, Pat Shumur and Gruden mentioned as candidates. (I guess we still can't rule out Fox)

Oakland Raiders- since 1963 Al Davis has hired 1 Defensive Head Coach...John Madden.

49ers- looks like Jim Harbaugh or bust...

Denver Broncos- ??? possibility, but I think they'll go offense again

Carolina...well, you know.

All of that talk about Fox being the "hottest FA head coach" hasn't lived up...yet. Granted its early, put perhaps the media laid it on a bit thick with this one.

I agree, Fox doesn't have many logical landing places from what is coming out now.

Peter King on Sunday Night Football said the way most teams will go about getting a new HC is through rising/established assistant coaches.

Fox doesn't fit that. Money could be a factor as well?

he will find a job, if not a head coach a defensive coordinator, possibly with a Denver or New York Giants (If Fewell is hired somewhere).

as many people claiming Fox will get picked up as soon as he's let go.. I'm still waiting... I highly doubt he gets another HC gig..

i dont doubt he finds a head coaching job, but it may not be this year. i think he wil be a defensive coordinator if not hired as a head coach, the Browns and Broncos are the teams to watch when it comes to Fox being either head coach or defensive coordinator

      I’m guessing both.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking

      I was just a teenager when I joined in 2013. I've loved the many opinions on this forum, even though several are infuriating. I've had several bad takes, myself,  that I've hopefully grown out of over the years.
