Why? He's an OK DL coach. Probably aren't 32 better.

You can't make Chicken Salad outta Chicken ****.

It probably comes down to teacher versus schemer. Some can scheme vets well, some can develop youngsters. I'm guessing very few can do both.

We have had better luck developing DL talent, so some of that had to be Johnson. The problem was depth because we took too many injuries there over the last 3 years.

That begs the question what kind of coach do we need a teacher or a schemer

A bigger shock will come when Vitt does and the show stopper will come IF McMahon ever does. (I'm thinkin' Div III college for him.)

This would be a great addition. Sign him up!!

Elite hiring candidate & exceptional positional coach. Jim had some scary good D lines with the 49ers.

Smash mouth City. Fingers crossed he signs with New Orleans.

Think he's looking to be Co D-Coordinater as well? Wonder if he'd settle for just being DL coach.

If he did not sit out last year then I would say that would be a demand for DC would be in the cards for him. I think settling on a short term gig might be in the cards.

Allowed to concentrate solely on the DL would change ours dramatically. Good pickup that I believe will happen.

Is he signed yet?
