 Posted: Fri Jan 18, 2013 11:32 am Post subject: The Bruce Arians Staff Thread; Updated Page 1 |
 |
|
|
Gonna get this going to break things up a bit, that way we can still discuss the hiring of new head coach Bruce Arians and also discuss any potential staff hires without getting one of the two lost in the mix.
It is being widely reported that Todd Bowles will be named the team's next defensive coordinator, replacing Ray Horton who is expected to be let out of his contract. Bowles himself is still under contract with the Philadelphia Eagles but new coach Chip Kelly is expected to allow him to interview for other teams and thus, make him available to us.
EDIT:
Here are the staffing rumors that we have heard so far. If there's more than one name rumored, they will all be listed:
Assistant HC/Offense: Tom Moore (Confirmed)
OC-Harold Goodwin (Confirmed)
QB-Freddie Kitchens (Confirmed)
RB-Todd McNair
WR-Darryl Drake (Confirmed)
TE-?
OL-Larry Zierlein (Confirmed)
DC-Todd Bowles (Confirmed)
DL-Brenson Buckner
LB-Mike Caldwell
CB-Kevin Ross (Confirmed)
S-Nick Rapone (Confirmed)
ST-Amos Jones (Confirmed)

Todd Bowles as previously mentioned is to meet with Chip Kelly today (whom is expected to let him leave).
Ray Horton will likely be addressed today at 1PM AZ time, in the AZCardinals presser for the hiring of Bruce Arians.
Rumor Mill:
Mike Jurecki @mikejurecki
Hearing former NFL RB Todd McNair is being considered for the #Cards running backs coach. #temple #Chiefs #Oilers
Mike Jurecki @mikejurecki
Hearing WR coach Jerry Sullivan (Jags) would like to join BA's staff in Az, he's one of the best in the business, Bucs also have interest. |

I expect a strong positional staff, with a young OC whom BA will mold.

I just don't understand the stupidity of the owners right now.

Randy Fitchner could be a guy that Bruce wants to bring in.
Also has Sullivan worked here before?

I'm still being told Arians had nothing to do with Horton asking out but this doesn't surprise me either way.
Ray, you made me a believer. I'll never forget the way you made this defense run. I wish you nothing but the absolute best, go prove em wrong big guy.

Anyone else think Horton teams up with Turner anyway in Cleveland?!? I think they still need a DC.

Was Dave McGinnis' OC. Boldin and Fitzgerald both praise Sullivan for his work with wide receivers, as have Cecil Shorts and Greg Jennings. Sullivan is a regular at Fitzgerald's offseason workouts.
