Looks like Jauron may be coming to the Birds

[ThoughtProcess]

I like this move.

In J'ville, the defense was pretty stout when Jauron was there. Dont' recall Chicago or Buffalo.

Real nice signing by the FO.April as ST's Coach,Jauron as DB's Coach,do you think Andy realized both spots needed an upgrade?
As an aside,I see at least two guys being drafted at CB or Safety and Sheldon Brown getting moved to FS.The addition of Jauren will help alot.

[BIGPHILLY]

Great move.

I, along with many others I am sure, never thought much of him as a HC but he definitely has potential in helping the D. Wonder what Andy had to say to him to get him to step in as secondary instead of looking for a DC position somewhere. I really believe coaches, no matter the title, feel they have a say in things with Andy.

There was a clip of Jauron on daily News live. Said he wanted to come here to learn this D and see what he might be able to add to it.Said he liked AR, respected him and the organization and was happy for the chance to come here.

Everyone has their own conspiracy theory,here's a different one. How about AR bringing Jauron in to learn the entire system and taking over for AR down the line with AR bumping up to a GM only role ?

Seriously doubt it. You already have Marty for that.

Jauron has underwhelming HC stints behind him - Chicago, Detroit and Buffalo. May not have been all his fault, but I think his HC days are behind him.

Some guys are just Assistant Coaches but they are VERY GOOD assistants. Joe Bugel, Jauron, Marc Tresman, Kevin Gilbride and Gunther Cunningham come to mind.

Do coordinators count?

Monte Kiffin, Jimmy Johnson.

Add Dick Lebeau to that list.

Edit: and one that might be unpopular around here....Buddy Ryan.

This is a very good move.

I kinda have the feeling that if Ryan had hired a competent offensive coordinator and let him run that part of the team "hands off" the same way Reid let JJ run the defense, it may have been a different story. Though... I'm actually drawing a blank as to who was the offensive coordinator from 1986-89... I know we had a bad one Ryan's last year

And if Reid hired someone to handle the timeouts and challenges, the Eagles might have won a Super Bowl. If My aunt had balls she would be my uncle.

Buddy Ryan was a horrible head coach and a great defensive coordinator.

In the media guide there is no listed OC,the assistant head coach/offense was Ted Plumb.
