Jags want McDaniels

[Username]

Jaguars GM reportedly interested in Patriots coordinator Josh McDaniels

I'm not as sold on Josh as many others are, and I don't think he'll make a good HC but this could be a decent opportunity for him. Low expectations, a serviceable QB, some very decent receivers and a good RB.

Jags can claw that thought out of their head, he's ours.

 

[RelocatedPatFan]

Jags want McD and JAG and perhaps a new jag?

 

[Bradyking12]

Maybe he can go there undercover and send some guys from their roster over here hehehe

is brady going with him?? mcdaniels isn't head coach material.

If McDaniels isn't going to stick around and take over HC after BB retires then yeah, I would be pretty happy for McDaniels going to Jacksonville. Shad Khan is committed to improve the Jags and the overall team seems to be going in the right direction, except Blake Bortles. I think Jacksonville would be a great place to work for as a head coach and while I would be sad that McDaniels is leaving, I am happy that he would be going to a good place to work.

He's dumb if he goes there, Bortles is horrible.

Jacksonville would be 32/32 on my list.

 

[Joey007]

I can't blame them. McDaniels would be great for Bortles, who has a lot of talent but has mechanics that have gotten way messed up.

 

[RobertWeathers]

No chance of Josh going to JAX

Why would going to a bad team be coach for a coach because of low expectations?
You aren't looking to stick around being mediocre you want to win

Is there anyone in foxboro that you don't think sucks?

I disagree with the Board's opinion, so far.

McD has improved as an OC and he has one quality that is irreplaceable for a leader-position: To know when you are wrong and move on.

He is smart to the point where I think he understands what went wrong in his last HC gig, so he can do things differently.

Plus, Jacksonville has good talent. On both sides of the ball: If he can snatch a QB (Grop maybe?), they are absolutely candidates to win in a weak division like the AFC South.

There should be a package deal. McDaniels and JG to, say, the Rams, for a 1st round pick in 2017, a 1st rounder in 2018, and a fourth rounder in 2018. Something like that. The Rams' D has some pieces. JG immediately gives them a quality QB (Goff isn't the answer, and they could trade Goff to, say, the Jets or Cleveland, to offset some of their lost picks), and the Rams can be off and running.

The Pats then draft another QB to compete with Brissett for the "QB of the future" title. They use the 1st round picks on defense. And away we go.

They don't have to give picks for McDaniel. 2 high firsts for Jimmy g is nuts. Rams do not have a 2017 1st.
Otherwise...

I think its a good assessment of the situation but I think JMD will want final say on personnel.

Kahn is a self-made guy so hes not one of these silver-spooned idiot owners.

Who knows...maybe?

They dont have a first round pick next draft, IIRC.

There is 0 chance they will give up completely on Goff after just 1 year.

Khan gave Gus 5 years (edit 3 years) Let me tell you, McD with Lee, Burns, Allen and a competent QB, decent Line for 3 years? Could be A LOT worse.

I had put the Jags job as the best position for a new HC next year. I dont know how much will McD reliquinsh, control wise, for something like that.

I think Josh will be a good head coach, but he needs to go somewhere where he can implement the right players and people. He knows he needs the right QB to work with to build a winner. That just isn't Bortles. From what I've heard on here and elsewhere is that Bortles isn't committed to studying and learning and relies on his God-given talent. Josh will want someone who's committed. I could see the LA Rams as a team he would go to where he could help mold Goff. If it's the Jags I think he tries to trade for Jimmy G.

Apparently you did see the game he called last nite or in the superbowl ? losing him will be a loss for the pats.

If they could trade Goff for a 2nd rounder, and if they think that JG is better, sure they may make a move, especially if the move also brings in McDaniels (who, presumably, they'd want pretty badly as HC).
