Maybe there is someone on one of the remaining playoff teams that they are really high on as well. I mean, KC, Seattle, and Houston certainly have talented position coaches that might be worth looking at.

Mike Vrabel would be the only one I would look at for non DC's.....he has done a great job and moved up the ranks fast and the DC there gives him a ton of credit to why Houston's D is so good

Not saying he would leave KC, or even want to be a DC again, but what about Emmit Thomas?

this is turning into a total disaster,gruden should not call the plays to much is on the head coach, i don,t think we are getting bradley either as D.C think he is going to the chargers with lynn,ugh we are down to pettine and that,s it i think and keep in mind we still need a D.L coach and secondary coach as well, i would like to hire a good O.C.but i don,t think anyone good is available and god help us if we lose callahan

Honestly, I think Jay Gruden is not in a situation where he chooses a position guy to move up and try out at DC. He needs a proven successful DC. He just lost Sean McVay, which I think we'll wind up seeing meant a lot more to us than what we think he did, and so there's pressure to keep the offense at a high level on top of rebuilding the defense. Gruden has a lot on his plate, and I think he needs the best DC available hired today.

I heard this Joe Barry guy is available now, might have to give him a call.

For OC, no Mike McCoy, any other words on who leading candidates are?

Seriously though, just cannot imagine his philosophy jives with us at all.

Really bummed that Bradley seems like he isn't an option anymore. Seems like Pettine may be the leader now?

[bigant]

you are right he is probably the leader now by default (pettine) so what does that say? uuuuugh

I'm only seeing that the Chargers are targeting him. There were reports on January 1 that Bradley would go with Lynn wherever he went, but that's been quiet since.

I wouldn't assume Bradley is off the board. He still has ties to everyone at the Skins.

That said our situation would not be considered ideal for any DC. Our talent is iffy, and Gruden is going into his make or break year which makes it entirely possible the entire staff is cleaned out following the 2017 season.

But for me Pettine is just as good a choice as Bradley. Wade was the candidate that had me most excited, now that he's gone I don't see the reason to rush.

This. Also the Chargers are not the most stable organization at the moment, with their move to LA. Their defense isn't that great is well, all they have is an elite CB I believe.

I am fine with Pettine or Bradley. I think they can come in and shape our defense into a decent unit.

Personally, I want the defense to improve just like any one, however, I'm more concerned about the possible changes to the offensive coaching staff structure, given that this is our best unit.

This is a relief, from Keim:

The Redskins expect to keep all of their offensive assistant coaches, a source said, one day after Sean McVay became head coach of the Los Angeles Rams. There had been rumors of tight ends coach Wes Phillips joining McVay's staff, but the source said Phillips and the other coaches were expected to stay. They would need permission to interview for another job. Phillips' dad, Wade, is the Rams' new defensive coordinator. The Redskins need to fill McVay's offensive coordinator job and could do that from within. That could be with head coach Jay Gruden again calling plays or elevating line coach Bill Callahan or quarterbacks coach Matt Cavanaugh – both ex-coordinators.
