And I think, you know, I think that those three teams are kind of lucky at this point, right?
Because I think when we were going into the offseason, it was like, oh, there's maybe going to be five or six jobs that open up.
And it's going to be a bad crop of candidates.
Kevin Stefanski is going to get fired.
He's immediately the best candidate.
And everything after that, you're working at retreads or guys, you're kind of talking yourself into being this next Liam Cohen, Ben Johnson, Mike McDonald type.
Now,
You have McDermott in the mix.
Harbaugh's already been hired.
And then in Stefanski, that's kind of the top three candidates.
And it forces you down the list now with these teams where getting McDermott, if you miss out on the hot young guru, is a way better consolation prize than maybe where some of these teams are going to end up with a Matt Nagy, a Robert Sala, Vance Joseph.
I think that there's some of these candidates where you're ultimately like, we're going to see if we can do this again and kind of forget about what happened when they were head coaches before.
I think that the Dolphins and the Cardinals, and honestly the Browns, are all similar in that they have quarterback problems on the roster right now.
What do the Dolphins do with Tua Tungvalu in that contract?
The Browns are paying Deshaun Watson this year no matter what.
And then the Cardinals, all signs point to that they're moving on from Kyler Murray and they're going to have to figure out the quarterback position without a top pick and a free agency class where the bell of the ball is going to be Malik Willis.
Yeah.
Those three teams, whereas with the Raiders, probably going to be selecting Fernando Mendoza, the Indiana quarterback at number one overall.
And the Titans have Cam Ward.
Like those are two situations where if you're looking to develop a young guy and at least have stability at that quarterback position, you can buy yourself.
