So, the rumors of McDaniels going to the Raiders is almost a done deal. So much so that McDaniels rebuffed requests to interview with other teams and he's supposedly reaching out to other coaches to fill out the assistant positions he'd need.
IF this is true, I hope that he takes Steven with him and not Mayo, though Mayo leaving would likely net the Patriots a 3rd round comp pick.
IF this is true, I'm not sure who else would be likely to go with him..
IF McDaniels goes, BB is going to have to go outside the organization for an OC because I don't see one on the staff. I don't want O'Brien back. I'd love to steal Daboll from the Bills, but he's not a FA right now..
If Mayo leaves, I'd want BB to bring Flores back as the DC. I think that Flores has the competency to get the most out of this defense and I believe that BB would have the confidence in Flores to manage the D, allowing BB to focus on the O since there would a large turnover there. As I mentioned in another thread, I think that Steve Belichick's assets make him best as a position coach or a Position scout.
With the NFL changing it's COVID rules, I hope that Cole Popovich is officially reinstated as the Patriots O-line coach. He was clearly missed and Bricillo/Yates weere in over their heads without Dante as a guiding force.
There has been speculation that Ivan Fears is retiring. If so, I agree that I'd like to see Kevin Faulk tapped as the new RB coach..

Josh McDaniels Rumors: Patriots Coach Rebuffed Non-Raiders Openings
How real is Josh McDaniels' interest in the Raiders? So real that he's reportedly stonewalled all other head-coaching inquiries.
