ArmandoSalgueroRT @joereedy: Larry Coyle to Fins as DC not wrapped up yet but it is all but done.2 minutes ago · reply ·retweet ·
I am not as confident on Sherman as everyone is around here. As soon as, Joe was hired I wanted Sherman, but there will be a ton of competition for his services.
Doesn't he mean Kevin Coyle?
with Sherman it's competition between us and Cleveland (he has history with Holmgren). Pat Shurmur learnt the hard way why it is important to have an OC. Even if he still calls plays, you need somebody to help out. If they don't get Sherman, they'll go after Shurmur's mentor Brad Childress.
Not sure if any of us know enough about Coyle to be excited by him. Personally would rather have promoted Kacy rogers. Not sure why we are that excited by him but maybe he will be a good hire.
Coyle is an interesting pick (if that's who we go with). I don't get the connection to Philbin and the huge leap of faith in a relatively unproven coach. I'm hoping somebody knows something the rest of us don't and this pick reaps huge benefits.
