Really like Cesar Ruiz.. The guy who does these is a Ravens fan, but I'd consider him in the 2nd round for the Skins.

Anyone remember this moment

bleacher report put out some bold statement and had us trading Ryan Kerrigan to the Ravens https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2871823-predicting-boldest-roster-moves-for-the-2020-nfl-offseason#slide0

blasphemy. That's all I have to say

thank god it's not Haslett

The most important thing to me, whether the HC hires the GM or the GM hires the HC is that it works as a partnership.

Mr. Vanilla is the new DC of the Dallas Cowboys MIKE NOLANDL, NEW ORLEANS SAINTS NFL Network's Jane Slater reports Saints LB coach Mike Nolan is expected to join the Cowboys. Specifically, Slater's source said, "That’s what I’ve heard in the building ... Mike came by and said goodbye. I’d say it’s pretty certain." Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero added that the Cowboys are "zeroing in on" Nolan. He's spent the past three seasons coaching the Saints linebackers. Previously Nolan held defensive coordinator positions with the Falcons, Dolphins, Broncos, Ravens, Redskins, Jets, and Giants dating back to 1993. Nolan also served as the 49ers' head coach from 2005-2008, during which time new Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy was his offensive coordinator. The Cowboys boasted the league's 11th-ranked scoring defense in 2019.

he may not hire and fire quickly, but he has kept GM's a long time because of the friendship that he has had with them and he meddles way too much. Haskins was his choice, not Jay Grudens or the front office RG3 was his choice not the coaching staff McNabb was his choice not the coaching staff I could go on and on...

His contract is so bad. Alex Smith's cap hit next season is 21.4m, but his dead cap is 32.2m dollars. If we cut him, he will cost us 11m. That being said I do remember them having a decent record when Alex Smith went down with an injury. Many thought we were going to win the division before he went down, but now that he hasn't played football for 1 1/2 years, how good can he be.

Eagles owner and the Maras colluded. Well I wish they took away our 1st round pick instead which would have cancelled out the RG3 trade.

Jim Caldwell had taken time off for health reasons, but wants to get back in the game. Could very well only want to be a head coach though.

That is correct, while in Seattle Earl Thomas was purely a FS, but in Baltimore he does both because of all the coverages Don Martindale has in that defense.

nowadays you can't really say your best pass rusher needs to be up against the LT. This used to be the case, but nowadays the best pass rusher can be lined up on either side of the line. I hate when teams tend stick with 4-3 or 3-4, which in the 3-4 is rarely the case anymore. With all the passing, teams are in nickel most of the time and in base defense less than 20% of the time, in many cases. The base defense for many 3-4, not all 3-4 teams, would be used when the opposing offense lines up an extra lineman. I'd rather have a hybrid scheme. It's also nice to have interchangeable safeties for more disguised blitzes. Jack Del Rio has an excellent reputation and both times brought horrible defenses to top two defenses so I believe he should be able to do that in DC as well, especially if we draft Chase Young.

This is one of the best hiring and firings in the Dan Snyder era. Rivera is a two time Coach of the Year who coached in a difficult division and his players fought for him. He is a defensive mind that will immediately bring leadership to this team. Happy New Year, everyone! and that's an improvement
