I think I remember Daboll as Bama's offensive coordinator wanting to replace Tua with Hurts a lot sooner than Saban was willing.  Not sure if he believes in Hurts or doesn't like the idea of dealing with the headache of Wentz's contract.  It's interesting he was willing to interview with other teams but not the Eagles though.

I also wonder if McDermott and Boyko still have enough ties there to help vet the situation and advised him to stay away

The offense is only going to get better.  Allen, Diggs and the rest will improve.  Next year Jobs will come open.  If you can hold your status as a prime Co Ordinator you can get a quality position.

I'm sure it also doesn't help that they are $53 mil over the cap too, only team worse off is the Saints which there's an entire thread on that one.

 

 

So hows that work out when the dead cap is a smaller number than the Cap hit if you cut the guy??

 

Fletcher Cox: Dead cap: $21 mil, Cap hit $24 mil.

 

where as:

 

Wentz: Dead cap: $59 mil, Cap hit $35 mil  I assume if they cut hit they'd take the whole $59 mil cap hit?

Could be.  Lurie being the main problem.

Also, his buddy McDaniels is a top candidate right now so maybe he backed off if he figured it was going to him

Hearing former NFL exec Mike Lombardi talk on the Pat Mcafee show.  Philly issue is as a coach you are not talking with the owner.  You dont know what kind of team they want.  You dont know what they want to change.  Its the telephone game basically.  The GM or whoever has the ear can manuver in a way to save themselves.  Kinda like what happen in the 2000's in Buffalo.
