That'd be Bowles.
He seems to be the Rooney Rule interview of choice this offseason, but for good reason, dude has done wonders with the Cards D.

RT @adamjahns: League source suggests that Brian Gaine could be Accorsi's top recommendation for #Bears, especially w/ Parcells connections.

Wow...didn't see this coming. Dude loves college, to put it lightly.
If not for being the reigning champs I really don't think FSU would have gotten into the playoffs. Given that it'll be tough for them to get back to the playoffs. The ACC is weak.

I want to like Mitchell. I tried all season. Best I can really do is assume that being Troy's sidekick is a lot harder than Ryan Clark made it look. Though to be fair Ryan Clark backed up a prime Troy.

he's pretty much as good as you get imo
it's hard to fathom as a slurs fan to be honest
i'd love for him to also evaluate the coaching staff....gruden shouldn't be a lock to return

Jameis doesn't understand the time value of money very well does he? He's a top 10 pick right now right? So I don't entirely understand him not entering the draft because the risk of playing another penniless season at FSU isn't worth it.

He wants to be The first overall pick and is scared he'll lose out to Mariota ?

Agree he should go this year. Depth at QB is short this year and many NFL teams need a QB (approx 10). He should leave CFB on a high note not risk another year and injury. So what if Mariota goes #1? He'll go top 5 anyways.
i have to think he'd drop at least as far as JFF. He needs to fix his character and a lot of the mistakes he made early in games, and all through the playoff game
Jameis has some more games to fix and an insurance policy to collect on.
Dude can't be that dense, money wise that is only about a million less guaranteed over the whole contract. So much could go wrong for him this year to even risk it.

If he has an average year next year or any kind of regression he may not even be drafted
its an insane move to make
Phenomenal talent evaluator, however hes had problems with alcoholism that has hurt his career. Good hire imo
Not only depth but Also the fact that he is a prototypical drop back passer, which seems rare now a days.

Great talent scout. Terrible coaching hires tho (Singletary lol)
Dude is also an unstable drunk but eh

That's a possibility and will probably decrease how much he's making but I don't think he falls out of the first round. Rookie contracts aren't what they used to be though, although about 8 million to 22 million is a huge jump. I'm not sure if I see a scenario that increases his draft stock necessarily. He may end up regretting this like Matt Barkley or Jake Locker. Actually nobody regrets not entering the draft more than Jake Locker since that was an uncapped rookie salary year and his senior year was not nearly as impressive.
:jnc I like this idea
I'll take one of those 3, preference of Hamilton > Bevell > Del Rio
Bevell stresses a good running game and benefitted from having two premier RBs in AP and Beast Mode. Hamilton is supposed to be some kinda QB guru and had to deal with Trent Truck which probably meant he had a to have a pass happy offense. Del Rio actually wasn't bad as a HC, he's more capable than Sparano but I'm not about retreads.
That Niners team you see right now is pretty much a result of his work.

It's strange to see how insular the NFL coaching ranks is.
The league would rather wallow around in established mediocrity with these retreads than take chances on bringing in new blood.
There's never a risk of crashing completely out of the league for these guys I guess. You get fired from an NFL HC job? Go be someone's coordinator or spend a few years in college and wait your turn for the revolving door to kick you back in.

Lol, what if FSU doesn't want him back? FSU officials are crying right now. They can't wait to get rid of him.
you must really suck to get banned from a Falcons board
I think the reality is that there are a lot of capable coaches, but in order to win consistently you need the talent, the coaching, and the front office talent to all be in place and on the same page.
Most franchises are missing one or more of those.

I'm not a Bevell fan at all. Offense is very similar to Knapps. And his playcalling is suspect.
If he brings Marshawn with him I'll be okay with him, otherwise keep his ass in Seattle.
Sounds like a Belichick type of player.
Hamilton ran the shit out of the ball when he was calling plays at 'Furd.

I want him to leave the lions just to read Kas's reaction

I want him to stomp on Stafford's leg just to see the reaction.
Kyle Shanahan could leave the Browns over friction with the front office
According to the report, the personnel side and the coaching side arent seeing eye to eye, and the coaches may have felt pressured to bench Brian Hoyer and start Johnny Manziel, a decision that resulted in an already struggling Cleveland offense getting worse. The report even says that the personnel side is intruding on the coaching side to such an extent that a personnel executive texted from the press box to the sidelines about play calling during a game.
The IG pro bowler is not worth us losing a quality coach like Kyle Shanahan.
LOL at Jameis returning, allegedly. In a way I get it because there's no way he's ready for the pros at the moment due to his win loss record. Look up all the QBs over the past few years that won that amount of games with skill position talent around them. The QBs all suck as starters for the most part. Just to clarify, I mean QBs from perennial top 10 BCS schools that lost less than five games over their career. However, Jameis needs to leave because of the scrutiny on the program.

I think it's probably just an excuse for him to join his dad wherever he ends up.

Lol Suh doing any kind of thuggery against the lions would produce an amazing reaction. I think kas would implode into a wormhole or somthing.
Better off using that money on skill players so they can score points. Stafford can't carry a bunch of scrubs forever.
I tend to agree, but please, give us suggestions/thoughts on who these teams should be looking at.
