Sadly, he'd be an upgrade.

I know he's got NFL experience and connections. I wonder though what kind of staff would he put together. Belichek's 'tree' has done quite poorly outside of NE and I wonder if he will try to dip into that pool of coaches or branch out to find others that he likes.

Funny they're talking about this news now, though it happened in June. I believe he is at the top of the list right now. Have liked him for a while but didn't think he'd be at the top of the list, new revelations lead me to put him in the top 3

Who's the top three?

Their top 3 appears to be O'Brien, Jay Gruden (the Jonny G flirtation will linger but can't see it happening) and a mystery candidate. Conventional wisdom says that's Briles. I think it could be someone not at all on the radar

Compared to what we have, all of those sound great. But seriously, O'Brien and Jay Gruden both sound like good candidates. However, the HC is going to need a good staff. Our staff, from top to bottom, is not good right now.

Exactly this. Head coach is the big talk of town but I'm equally anxious to see what coordinators/position coaches are hired under the new regime.

Sheehan and Schefter were talking earlier on 980 and indicated that Jay wasn't interested in DC, not a fan of the noise and drama but money and opportunity talks.

What do you think of these guys?? And is there any chance Lovie, Gwilliams or Whisenhunt come aboard?

Bill O'Brien: Potential to be great, but I think you have to be patient with him

Gruden: He's a small town guy and I worry how he would handle DC (fans and media)

Briles: I don't know. I don't like that he doesn't have any NFL experience at all. It's a big risk I think that I'm too timid to take a chance on

Shaw: Spoke to him end of last week, he reiterated he doesn't want to leave for the NFL

Whisenhunt: Very solid coach, can he work with RG3's skill set? I don't know

GWilliams: Could very easily see him returning, but as a DC

Lovie: Don't see it happening

Grimm: Don't see that either

Other than Lovie, not a single person listed strikes me as a sure fire upgrade over Shanahan. I understand it's trendy to hate on Shanahan now, but Why buy out Shanahan and his staffs contracts for someone who's not clearly better?

Snyder needs to recruit a strong coaching staff around him. Bringing in GWilliams as DC, Grimm as Assistant HC/ Oline. Hue Jackson WR coach.
