Leslie Frazier from that list would be my pick

[Trench]

Patricia is also interesting

[killarich]

Oh god do NOT go after Graham

[DaveBrown74]

Whether Daboll wants Patricia or not, good luck getting Mara to sign off on a guy who was indicted for sexual assault in his past.

[Giant Obsession]

Ron Rivera.

Classy, accomplished, and able to work around confusion and chaos.

Added benefit is he can slide easily into HC position when HC "need a spark" Daboll is canned after Week 7 or 8.

[Ed Vette]

They already have his replacement. A bunch of interviews but they have their guy. These people aren't morons.

[Rosehill Jimmy]

Tiki was singing the praises of Evero on his radio show today

[Bob In PA]

Ron Rivera.

GO: This would be a brilliant move, so I can almost guarantee the Giants won't even give him the time of day. lol

[MightyGiants]

Ralph V. did a list as well

Nobody wants Ron Rivera as DC???

After so many years as an HC, I think most people assume he wouldn't take a coordinator job.

Weird that Antonio Pierce isn't on the list when there are reports that the Giants are interested in him for the DC job.

Nobody wants Ron Rivera as DC???

Ron Rivera is a 4-3 guy who doesn't employ a lot of blitzing. It would be a pretty significant switch from Wink.

Makes sense. He's a proven commodity though. Curious as to what it would take to make that switch personnel-wise.
