Potential GM/HC/Coaches Thread

[jamf]

It’s weird being optimistic.
I’m actually going to enjoy the lead up to the draft and preseason.

Commanders have started virtual interviews with head-coaching candidates. Ravens assistant head coach/defensive line Anthony Weaver was set to have his today, per source.

Who would have thought, people that come from winning organizations want to come and work here. My how things have changed.

Either one would be a significant upgrade compared to who has held the position here in the last many years.

I think my preference at this point is Peters. He's had a hand in fielding a top 5 defense over the last three years, to go along with one of the best offenses over that time as well.

I was looking at the comparison that was linked in an above post and the thing that stuck out to me was where Cunningham has been. He has a connection to the Ravens, and also his Philly time means he has a strong familiarity with our division. For those reasons alone I am hoping for Cunningham, but I expect it will be Peters.

There was a lot that I liked about Cunningham after reading that article. In particular his his success rate at drafting OL which due to college offenses has started to become more challenging to rate the positions. One thing to note both had drafts with weighted average career values that were high and also some that were low. Even highly sought after candidates will have bad drafts.

The Hoffman show was stating it could be Peters for the Head of Football Operations and Cunningham for GM.

Being in the Ravens organization and around / learning from Ozzie Newsome is definitely a factor. I'm not sure familiarity with the division is much of a factor. Ultimately, results is what will be the deciding factor.

[punch it in]

Whoever it is will be far more qualified than anyone since Beathard. No more putting lipstick on a pig. This is going to be built the right way.

The Patriots just hired Jerod Mayo as Head Coach.

Mike Vrabel probably just moved to the front of our HC possibility line. Thought for sure the Pats would swoop him up.

He will end up the best of the candidates wait and see .. I would have allready hired him!

[mredskins]

all the request for interviews for EB, must just be dizzying for Harris and company

The head coach should oversee the team .. the issue with a coordinator running the entire team is it splits their duties , I would much rather have a OC and DC that there only job is just that .. Let the Head guy worry about the entire team .. it comes from the top . The owner hires the GM who is over the HC who hires his staff .. If we bring in some Coordinator that has never been a head coach it's gonna be a learning curve .I would rather have the best Experience head coach guy out there that's not super old .. Vrabel checks all the boxes !All the young hot shot coordinators are very Risky and unknown as head coach ,we allready are gonna have a rookie QB under center . Factor in that with essentially Rookie Head coach who will be multi tasking for the first time that's a lot of unknowns..

Good post. HC is a leader of men and sets the tone for the whole team. Maybe Ben Johnson has the right qualities for HC and would be good at finding his own OC. But the lesson from teams like Texans, Ravens, and Lions may be that you need a boy genius coordinator, not necessarily a boy genius HC. And on Slowik, the more I watch CJ Stroud, the more I wonder who’s making the other look so good?
