I've heard the experts say QB has to be the next big decision but I'd argue the next coaching hires could be more critical to our future than Winston so I'd guess the entire staff to be in place before we learn who the next QB is.

Agreed. We have until March 16th to make any decision on Winston. That's when he becomes a free agent at 4:00 PM. Nobody else can talk to him until March 14th, yet we can still agree to a new deal. We really can't do anything with any outside free agents before that March 14th date, either. However, we can talk trade with teams of contracted players (Wilson, Garoppolo, etc.). All of those decisions should include an OC and others not yet in place.
