Still think Skipper winds up wherever Fox goes, whether it's college or pro. Ditto Mike Gillhammer, maybe even Jeff Davidson.

agree.

OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR - Rob Chudzinski (TE Coach, Chargers)

QB COACH - Marc Trestman (CFL)

RB COACH - Jim Skipper (former RB Coach, Panthers)

WR COACH - Al Saunders (Offensive Assistant, Ravens)

TE COACH - Pete Hoener (TE Coach, 49ers)

OL COACH - Jerry Fontenot (Asst OL Coach, Packers)

I like it, but I wonder if Trestman would leave for a position coach job. Saunders is very talented, but a bit of a wild card. I'd also expect Chryst as TEs coach, and I know Fontenot is recognizeable as a player but I'd want a better line coach than that.

DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR - Dave Wannstedt (former head coach, Pitt Panthers)

DL COACH - Karl Dunbar (DL Coach, Vikings)

LB COACH - Richard Smith (former LB Coach, Panthers)

DB COACH - Ed Donnatell (DB Coach, Broncos)

SPECIAL TEAMS COACH - Chris Tabor (Asst ST Coach, Bears)

Donatell is good, Smith could stay. Why would Dunbar leave MN?

Dunbar's out of contract. Tampa is trying to get him. He was the DL coach in Chicago for Rivera's first two years there so they know each other. Probably more likely we get someone like Nunnely or Cox though, but I'd like it if they got Dunbar.

Hoener and Fontenot I'm both basing on prior connection to Rivera, plus Fontenot is a third tier right now. I could easily see someone like Chryst being retained, though I think I'd honestly prefer him as QB coach over TE coach.

Saunders is working as an assistant/consultant right now. He's another one that I don't really know we'd have a shot at but who I'd like to see them try for.

Niners have stated they are retaining three assistants from the previous staff: Jim Tomsula (DL) Tom Rathman (RB) and Mike Solari (OL). Also word that WR coach jerry Sullivan is retiring. All others from the staff will likely be allowed to seek employment elsewhere.

Also looks like they may try to get Trestman. And word is they'll talk to Fangio as DC, so they may be running a 3-4.

hate not being able to choose, re: Trestman. Solari's by far the best OL coach. Cable's good, I guess.

Did I not list Cable as an option? Geez, I must be getting old :(

Word from Oakland is that Hue Jackson is "filling out his staff" even though he's not been officially announced as the new coach.

As far as I know, Leslie Frazier is keeping Mike Tice.

that'd be a neat trick, on Tice.

FWIW, I don't think I ever knew Frazier was an 85 Bear.

      Trade Chuba?

      Just like WR, you thin it out and then suffer an injury and you are scrambling.  Any RB could have run through some of those those holes though and maybe you don’t get the same xtra yards but you are getting yardage.  It is the pass catching they will miss the most.

      Without Sanders, they are stil catching balls. Sanders is about a giveaway to it will be a pass play.   Also, hoping we see the competition at RB keep both guys on their toes.

      I was talking about pre season hype vs now.  They were talking about him being the best route runner on the team and being unguardable.  Putting people in the blender.  He has had 1 catch the last two games, and before that it was 2 per game. I like Renfrow, but it seems him and Bryce are not on the same page.
