Their whole premise is that if he isn't resigned he'll be on the market? Weak. I'd love to have him but they are basically saying Elway might just not resign the architect of the sole reason they have a good team.

Well, they inferred that Denver might be inclined to let him walk because they have an assistant they like for the job

The article mentions they like his assistants, but doesn't specifically single one out as being ready for the job. That's why I felt it was weak. It kinda dances between "they couldn't come to a contract agreement last offseason" and "he's got good assistants that they like." I don't think either is a good enough reason to let Phillips walk.

Either way, if they do let Phillips walk, I'd snatch him up in a heartbeat. But we already had our chance once, and I'm not sure but I don't think he falls in the "Tampa North" thing we do.

It's definitely not a bad thing if multiple quality defensive coordinator candidates become available. This is the guy I wanted all along when we got rid of Haslett.

But even if we don't pursue Wade, he might intrigue another team who's looking at a D coordinator, which improves our chances at getting whoever else we target (whether Bradley or Guenther or whoever).

I hope the market gets flooded with good defensive coordinators.
