Gruden fires defensive coordinator Joe Barry

And Wade went to LA

Jesus. That didn't last long.

And Wade went to LA


so he agrees to go to LA during his visit with Washington ?

Excellent point by Keim:

1 thing to keep in mind: if you're a wanted DC do you go to team w/coach in 4th yr who might end up on hot seat or w/1st yr. job security.

No offense to anyone but who would you rather coach? Aaron Donald, Robert Quinn, Alec Ogletree, Mike Brockers, Trumaine Johnson or .....

I think you could have said something similar two years ago about him going to Denver vs. coming here.

The skins had their chance two years ago.

I'd rather win and the Rams suck bad and they'll suck bad next year too. Wade wasn't my # 1 choice anyways. I don't really care that we didn't get him. Have fun winning 6 games next year. Seems like Bradley and Wilks are gone too. Let's get Pettine.

I can only speak for myself but I'm not happy with the talent on our defense either. Keepers are Norman, Breeland, Kerrigan, and Baker. The 2nd tier is Fuller/Cravens/Smith/Murphy, aka guys who might be good someday but still need time to develop. Everyone else is replaceable. If Baker walks we are 0-3 on d-line starters, both Compton and Foster are replaceable at mike, and both safeties are replaceable. That's more than "a couple pieces" away.

If couple means 7. We're only a couple pieces away on defense lol.

But we do have good cap and extra picks . If we have a good off season we can be a much better (not elite or anything) on defense.

But we're definitely going to be way better than the Rams.
