CZ POLL Who do you THINK will be the next Defensive Coordinator of the Cowboys?

[Reality]

Check this out!

It’s just head coaches but as we watch for DC opportunities, it’s interesting to track who is interviewing for HC jobs.

Flores - 1
Schwartz - 1
Joseph - 6 (Leonard’s boss)

Etc

Hats off to /r/Comfortable-Cod7763

If someone hires Joseph, the Broncos may try to promote Leonhard to DC and the Broncos right now would be a much better job for him if they offered.

If someone hires Joseph, the Broncos may try to promote Leonhard to DC and the Broncos right now would be a much better job for him if they offered.

That's a bit odd, considering the Broncos are allowing him to interview for DC positions with other teams. For example, the Falcons denied the Cowboys permission to speak with their coordinator. In other words, there is nothing to stop Jerry from hiring Leonhard now, before any team decides whether or not to hire Joseph ( I don't think he's a serious candidate).

I never said there was. Of course a position coach can interview with other teams for their DC position without permission from the Broncos.

What I am saying is that if the Broncos lose Jospeh they may offer the position to Leonhard and that would be a great situation to step into for him if that were to happen.

I did not say they would do it, just that they might so not sure why that is problematic to you.

It'll be Whitecotton because it's easier to just promote someone than to have to sit through a bunch of interviews. The yacht beckons...

It will be the “comfortable” hire for all in Jones. Damn actually paying someone at the top of their profession.

 

[Rayman70]

Better add durante Jones to that list. He's picking up steam. This league about relationships and scheme fit. Going by that, I feel it's a 3 horse race between Jones, Leonhard and Flores. With the dark horse of Rex Ryan. The latter might be a big mistake and bad fit. Don't think Rex would be a good teacher. If we are to believe Shotty, then he wants a teacher first and foremost. That's never been Rex.

 

[EPL0c0]

Who do I want, OR who will Jerry pick?

Two vastly different answers

 

[Verdict]

Who i want and who i think they will sign are 2 different things.

I WANT: Gannon
We will get: Rex Ryan.

I hope it’s not Rex.

 

[Verdict]

I wouldn’t choose Whitecotten as the hire but I voted for him because that’s who I think Jerry will hire.

 

[Verdict]

As for Ryan we had a Ryan once and that was a pretty bad defensive team if I recall correctly.

 

[Bullflop]

I went with Al Harris. He's had an excellent record with the Cowboys in the past and is familiar with their players and the scheme that they'll need to be successful with. I believe the staff will want to work with him and vice-versa. His record for working with the defensive backfield was also excellent in the past. Jerry will be familiar with him and will likely believe that he'll provide continuity for what Al Harris has provided before. His familiarity with Schotty, the staff and the players would certainly provide a very welcomed factor for an easy undertaking and adjustment to a sound defensive scheme that works.

 

[Teague31]

Which ever one is willing to accept the lowest salary

 

[SwagSurfer]

Im not too familiar with some of these guys. Ill say whichever one will be a good puppet for Jerry

 

[Teague31]

It’ll be Wade and you’ll like it

 

[Coogiguy03]

The lazy GM pick is Whitecotton. He's the pick that JJ has to spend the least amount of effort on

That's the pick I've been saying, he's right down the hall!

 

[Coogiguy03]

It’ll be Wade and you’ll like it

loooooooooooooooooooooool

 

[MoistMayonnaise]

No idea who will bend the knee with the most submissiveness.

 

[rambo2]

Who i want and who i think they will sign are 2 different things.

I WANT: Gannon
We will get: Rex Ryan.

No way on Ryan.

 

[rambo2]

I'm going with Leonhard.

 

[windward]

Leonhard makes too much sense here

 

[IceStar-D7]

I think the tea leaves are pointing toward Leonard. Flores might get a head job. If not for that I might have voted for him.
