Todd Grantham pulls out of DC consideration...
 

Todd Grantham withdraws name from consideration for Saints defensive coordinator job | ProFootballTalk

On Friday, the current Georgia defensive coordinator opted to withdraw his name from the process.

Or in other words (perhaps) Grantham was told he wouldn’t get the job.

Well that's that... Rob Ryan it is. God I'm so apprehensive about hiring one of the Ryan brothers. But I will say, we have to trust Sean, Mickey, and Joe Vitt... if they want Rob Ryan then he must be the right man for the job. The day we stop trusting our leaders is the day we turn into the Jets, Dolphins, Jaguars, etc.

Hang in there. There are still a few other names floating around.

f- him if he doesn't want to win a world championship

I look at it this way. Its a transition year and all we really want is for someone to install a 3-4 defense that finishes around the middle of the pack.

I think everyone we're considering is capable of that.

While I prefer Romeo, I think Rob Ryan can do a decent job. A decent defense is all we need to be that 11-12 win team again and the odds on favorite to win the NFC South and one of 4 or 5 favorites to win it all.

I think Ryan is quite capable, but I think we all prefer exceptional. Ryan is a great stop-gap transition guy.

True Dat. There is still next week for interviews...

Well we know anyone from the niners is out. Jim Harbaugh is still pissed he lost the SB.

Re: Todd Grantham pulls out of DC consideration...
 

oh well

Re: Todd Grantham pulls out of DC consideration...
 

Yeah; I figured that would be the case...

Re: Todd Grantham pulls out of DC consideration...
 

I guess the Saints didn't want him, and he's just trying to save face.

Did the 9ers officially refuse to let Tomsula to interview for the Saints' DC position or did they just refuse Donatelli from interviewing and/or the Saints never approached the 9ers about the possibility of interviewing Tomsula?!

Rob Ryan would probably be an OK candidate, but I just don't want him - although, he might actually turn out to be great, because I really wanted Spags last year and he turned out to be the wrong guy. :-)

Puzzy!

Quitter!

Rob Ryan is not the end of the world.

He's the beginning of our defense.

Re: Todd Grantham pulls out of DC consideration...
 

You know what?, that's good because I don't want a quitter on this team, plain and simple. Hey, if a position as an NFL DC ain't good enough for ya, don't let the door hitcha where the good lord splitcha. Buh bye.

In the jokers voice... "And here weeee go!"

Re: Todd Grantham pulls out of DC consideration...
 

That's alright we are looking at all of our options and kicking the tires. Ryan it is.
