....go on...

I'd add carr... I'm not sure those other 3 are anything more than trading out one part for another. if we can cut hall, sign them and save cap i guess, but eh...

Tampa Bay Buccaneers' bid for San Francisco 49ers DBs coach Ed Donatell denied, source says - ESPN

Wonder if he's pissed he got denied a chance to take a defensive coordinator position?

I've pondered that as well. I know in this case it's probably Jim Harbaugh who denied him permission because that's in Harbaugh's best interests of the team and keeping it together, but if I were Donatell I'd probably be slightly upset at first that I've been denied the opportunity to interview for a chance to keep moving up the coaching ladder.

Sure, I'd probably get over it eventually and just get back to work intent on proving myself some more, but whose to say he would feel the same way as me? You never know how many opportunities you're going to get, so you gotta take advantage of them when they present themselves.

I think this brings the Bucs total of being denied an interview of a positional coach for either OC or DC to 3 times if memory serves correctly with another straight up rejection by a candidate to boot.
