The #Chiefs are hiring Steve Spagnuolo as their new defensive coordinator, sources say. The former #Giants DC and interim HC/#Rams HC began his NFL coaching career as an #Eagles assistant under Andy Reid. Now rejoins Big Red in KC.

Dareus and Malik look like they're probably cut lose.
Given the money they are spending on defense, the Fournette choice looks really dumb. Needed a QB on cheap contract to go with expensive defense. [Reply]

If the Jags drafted Mahomes they’d be playing in the SB next week [Reply]

Eh Coughlin didn’t really build that defense, but it’s a similar scheme, so I could see it either way. [Reply]
The Jags and the Vikings are kind of prime examples of why it's so damn hard to carry elite defenses from one year to the next. They get so fucking expensive. Usually it's based on depth why they get so good but guys just get expensive. [Reply]

They save $9M cutting Waynes, they save $6 mill this year cutting Rhodes. Waynes is the easier guy to cut as he's in the final year of his deal. [Reply]

Is Waynes really that good?
On their defense he's not in the top half because of the emergence of other players. He'd be a #2 here. [Reply]

That guy is a goddamn stud. Perfect LB for a 4-3.
That'd be ok with me. Wish we would have waited and just stuck with DJ or Pierre-Louis or whoever to fill the role rather than paying Hitchens a big contract [Reply]
