Hand pick you new head coach, gm and top 10 pick.

Of course the season is not offically over yet but this is the only subject I care to talk about right now.

I need to do some research but want to hear what you guys think in the meantime.

The Bill Cowher dream at last!!

[Kuech the Sneak]

Dont know about head coach or GM...but I'd love another big time defensive player in the top 10, probably no safeties worth it. Couple DTs could go in the top 10. I like johnathan banks from MSU at corner

The Bill Cowher dream at last!!

I'm all for Bill Cowher without researching any other candidates. I wonder how hard it would be for us to switch to a 3-4.

[Cary Kollins]

Gm: anyone but Marty the Fug Hurney

Coach: FUG I'd take Gruden

Draft: Star DT out of Utah or any badazz safety. Or offensive line players. Or a WR that isn't a project for 6 seasons.

Can't be that hard. Outside of Charles Johnson, is ther really anyone who you would be heartbroken if we didn't keep? Fuggin blow up the D-Line, and let's Extreme Makeover Football Edition that B.

Bill Cowher is the type of coach we need. Someone with an iron fist and or jaw... we need someone who commands respect and demands 110% effort on the field.

Just to beat a dead horse with the 3-4 talk and considering the mood is bad around here...

I am not a defensive guru or claim to be...but would a combo of 52/59 on the inside of a 3-4 be most advantageous..it would get arguably are two best LB on the field together playing the inside. Lord knows we don't have any other pieces of a 3-4, but its interesting to think about considering the down turn this season has taken.

I would think we would need to beef up at NT and have larger outside linebackers.

EDIT: To answer the OP

GM: Polian, but he might be too old. Maybe Polian with a young gun to learn under him for a few years and then take over after he retires..maybe keep Polian as an advisor.

Coach: Would be excited for Cowher..only because he has HC specific experience.

Player: Depending where we are in the top ten. 9-10..I want a homer pick with S Eric Reid, LSU. Anything before..BPA on defense..being a corner of defensive lineman.

2. Jon Gruden
   
3. Giant DT from Georgia

I think Chris Weinke could make a good QB coach. Seriously.

People like Cowher typically aren't the brilliant strategist types Rivera and his staff are. (Chuds brilliance at this point is fools gold I know)

While those "brilliant" strategist types typically don't have a strong fundamental focus.

Very rarely do coaches come along who do both well, and while i wasn't all the way on the bandwagon at the time-Harbaugh appears as if he may have indeed been one of those rarities.

[Growl]

I'm basically saying Cowher isn't the answer for those of you who didn't catch it.

While the college offense we run now is crap as a Base O, it'd be nice to incorporate it into our offense and I'm not sure Cowher is the type to do so. Also think the Coryell is the best possible offense Cam could be in.

So your looking for someone along similar limes that we have now, but has an actual grasp on preparation strategically and fundamentally, and game management, and no, the word stoic doesn't fit in anywhere into this.

[DaCityKats]

GM: Eric DeCosta Ravens asst GM, Ron Hughes Steelers college scouting director, Marc Ross Giants college scouting director

Don't understand the Bill Polian appeal.

Old, overrated, doesn't like us much anyways, etc..
