Go get Tee Higgins this offseason. He may not stay in Cincinnati and is exactly what Howell needs: a 6' 4", big bodied, 1B-type receiver who's only 25 years old and will line up his prime years with Howell's.
Our WRs have consistently failed to beat man coverage in the short time our OL gives them to win routes before Sam has to get the ball out this year. We need a big receiver with a larger catch radius who will also be easier for Sam to see.
Terry and Higgins as our 1A/1B with Jahan in the slot solidifies the WR corps and we can go get a TE in the draft.

I tend to agree. A rookie with the same traits would likely be bad use of a high pick, even if he could come in a produce from day 1. Brown is likely #4 WR or gone, and Samuel is likely out too. Besides his injuries have robbed us of a lot of his potential. We need a solid Art Monk type #2.

I have come around to the idea that it's now too late to sack the coaches without a possibly devastating effect on the team. We don't have an Antonio Pierce, so without a clear replacement, we're better off waiting until week 18. Mores the pity.
Your are correct, of course it speaks volumes for the quality of the coaching staff Ron has assembled. Outside of Chris Harris before he left I don't any of our staff have been in consideration for coordinator positions on other teams. I think the failure to adequately replace Harris is the catalyst for how our defence had gone from top ten last year to bottom of the pile this year. Secondary is garbage despite significant draft resources being spent. I wonder whether Harris would have signed off on drafting those guys.

We also have to consider the possibilty that a new DC will want to go back to a 3-4 scheme which may mean trading/ cutting a significant amount of the current defensive roster.

This would honestly be the best off-season possible to transition back to a 3-4. We don't have any DE's on this team that absolutely have to be on this team next season that would keep us from transitioning. 3-4 wouldn't work with Chase or Sweat, but they're gone. The cupboard is pretty much bare on defense to start over and do whatever you want. Just can't wait for a real GM to be hired and for Rivera/JDR to be fired.

Is anyone else secretly worried that Harris runs it back with Ron and Jack or even just Ron? Like somehow they think it is about personnel more than scheme/coaching? We are all 100 percent convinced that they are both dead men walking but there is this little part of me that worries they will be back.

Unless we went on a hell of a run there’s no chance Ron is back as HC

I honestly think even Ron doesn’t want come back ; he is ready for retirement and / or a smaller role ( coordinator different team)
