So can we actually hire him on Sat? I mean I get that he’s busy right now but if he committed and told us who he wants on staff couldn’t we start signing some of those guys?

Davis is already paying multiple coaches next year so other than it being a little embarrassing I don’t care how much it costs and neither should the Raiders. We can’t go into next season with our 4th or 5th choice at HC. Offer him f[raiders_icon]ck you money and let’s start building a staff.

Although Jim Schwartz had a top 4 def in Cleveland, last year, he was passed over by Browns ownership for Monkin. I’d love to see him come to Vegas. Would help Kubiak in countless ways
Yeah, Schwartz sure was pissed he didn't get the job with the Browns...so he's as good as gone.

You're a dreamer, I like that. I guess it is still possible.

That's what I'm saying. He's not coming here because kubiak will be calling his own plays. Same with Payton. He calls his own plays. I think Webb will take one of the other OC positions where he can gain that experience that some say he's missing

I don't think there's a chance Webb leaves the likely chance to be OC in Denver to be OC with the Raiders under Kubiak. If he were to leave Denver to be an OC, I'd think it would be for a job working with a defensive HC so he can be the de facto HC of the offense. I think the ideal OC fit would actually be a guy who's come up through the oline stream - we need to get the oline and the run game right and that would be the ideal way to attract the best guy to develop our oline. If you offer an oline coach an OC opportunity, then a team can't block it.

He wants to hang with the cool kids who are his age and make Mark bank money?

I'm not expecting that but if it is revealed Kubiak a DC we really like and Webb and a OL coach that's been successful, break out the McMahon laser beam meme.

Where there is smoke there is fire. Too many "unnamed sources" are linking Kubiak to the Raiders for this to be a mirage. I like our chances, a lot, baring some 12th hr setback.

Just for fun. Would you prefer?

Ejiro Evero and Mendoza

Or

Kubiak and Ty Simpson.

Say KK comes in and says he wants the picks of the Jets.
