If I had to rank these guys plus Smith,
Yes please:
Smith
Bienemy
Interested:
Daboll
LaFleur
Meh:
Roman
Morris
freak you:
Caldwell
I’d submit Joe Brady to this list and place him somewhere above Lafleur on your list.
freak Morris and Caldwell. For Christ’s sake Caldwell has had 2 shots and the Lions (the freaking Lions) saw fit to fire him after the best 3 season stretch in like 30 years because he wasn’t good enough. Morris is and always was trash.
I get why Smith, Daboll and Bienemy are top candidates, he’ll I get Roman as well. But I think Brady is going to be that next McVay. He’s got as much, if not more, potential than anyone else and if he is the guy you accept that 2021 is about him learning how to be the head guy while watching his offense start to establish itself (hopefully with Lawrence and a new plethora of playmakers). 2022 is the year to compete for the postseason
