J Sullivan: Kiffin could bring Raheem Morris

[Disturbed]

I hope Monte at age 73 is a consultant. His best days are behind him and his USC experience was not good....although his resignation was probably to save his son's job. The demands of being a DC might be too much for Monte at age 73.

Dallas needs to hire a young, smart, and aggressive DC.

I agree, they don't have to like how we stopped our "special" special teams coach to go to raiders this year. On top of that, he will probably know their defensive system inside out, letting him go would be a huge mistake for Redskins

Rah being in Dallas would be great.

Morris is a very good young defensive mind, I like the idea.

[FLCowboyFan]

I found this article that makes it look possible that he pre negotiated the ability to take a coordinator role.....not exactly what he would come here for but

"The agreement he struck with Washington coach Mike Shanahan gives him flexibility to leave for a coordinator position in the future. While that would be a promotion, teams do not have to grant assistants the chance to interview for a job with another team unless it is for a head-coaching position."

I wouldn't mind Morris joining the staff but what happens to Henderson?

I'd hate to lose guys like Baker and Henderson. Those two I would fight to keep.

Not on board with Kiffin, but if he's hired this is a must, IMO. Need a young, "hip" guy like this to relate to the players.

FWIW, Raheem's contract with Redskins ends in February.

The Chargers would like to keep Joe Barry, but it probably comes down to whether or not new coach wants to bring in his own guys.

Also, both Broaddus and Todd Archer hint that Henderson is a strong candidate to be retained. He's highly thought of at Valley Ranch.

Interesting indeed, but I've read where Kiffin also has a good relationship with Jerome Henderson.

ah I would rather Keep Henderson. Now I would love to have them both. Henderson as Db coach focus on CBs and Morris as secondary coach focus on safties.

I doubt the Redskins let him make a lateral move here.

He really did - especially considering our 2 starting safeties barely saw the field this year. Did alot with smoke and mirrors. Even the Seattle playoff loss - wasn't due to our DBs getting burnt like toast.

Was actually kind of hoping he'd take over as our defensive coordinator over Haslett...as I believe our surge the second half of the season was largely due to improved DB play. He also seems like much more of a inspirational players coach.

[Bowdown27]

Wow that's big news that he's a free agent in February. I'd love to get him
