Re: NFL Coaching Rumors and Moves

I was thinking that when I heard the announcement this morning actually. The Broncos got a great coach with John Fox and the 49ers could be in good shape with Harbaugh, but a few other teams have hired coaches already when Fisher would have been a superior candidate.

Re: NFL Coaching Rumors and Moves

I want to know how anything can cost a team gems in the UDFA market? We didn't choose that undrafted star qb, because we signed McNabb? If we hadn't gotten Brown, we would have kept the perfect UDFA RT?

No, it's a matter of weighing the probabilities.
There's at least some CHANCE(7% or less) that they'll be a stud. The probability of McNabb or Brown being good 5 years from now is 0.00001%, give or take. And that's just the cost of a roster spot, not the picks given up for them.

Antonio Dixon? Yeah, we put him on the practice squad. Where is he now? Oh yeah, on the Eagles as a starter.

We could have lost Austin or Banks as well.

Re: NFL Coaching Rumors and Moves

Speaking of UDFA's I wonder if Shanahan would have kept Chase Daniels. I'm afraid we cut ties with him too soon.

Sorta off topic... I'm sure it was mentioned but I either forgot or missed it. Virginia has a UFL team this year the "Virginia Destroyers".
Virginia Destroyers | UFL

The GM is Doug Williams.
Front Office | UFL

John Gruden's brother Jay Gruden is the HC.
Staff Roster | UFL

The Dance Team Co-ordinator is Kimberly Vaughn who was a 8 yr vet of the Washington Redskins.

Hhhhmmm....maybe the Redskins will be able to put up some points against the Eagles next season?

Eagles promote Juan Castillo to D-coordinator

Wow. I actually thought it was a typo when I saw that yesterday (guess I owe someone an apology). I was like why would they promote their offensive line coach to defensive coordinator? That's a different approach, to say the least.

Yeah thought the same thing. Then I thought, they're the Eagles and the organizational and personel moves work most of the time. If this were the Redskins Id say this is a typical move and would end in a miserable failure.

It seems completely insane.

Then again, Reid has done other things which I thought were nutty, and each time he comes out smelling like a rose.

I hope that we tear them a new a-hole but he does enough to stay on for a few years.
