          Fred Pagac of Minnesota is also joining the Bills

          CoachingSearch has learned that the Buffalo Bills will add Pepper Johnson and Fred Pagac to the staff.

          Johnson will coach Buffalo’s defensive line. He had been with the New England Patriots since 2000, most recently serving as linebackers coach for the past two seasons. The Patriots are the only organization Johnson has coached for.

          Pagac most recently served as the Minnesota Vikings' linebackers coach last season. The 61-year-old was an assistant at Ohio State from 1978-2000 (where he coached Johnson), then spent time with the Oakland Raiders (2001-03) and Kansas City Chiefs (2004-05) before joining Minnesota in 2006.

          I hope that attracts him here, although he hasn't spoken highly of Buffalo in the past. It is just what we need and then kick Kiko to weak side

            I have to give Marrone a lot of credit for filling his staff this off season even if I am not happy he has kept Crossman.

            I think this staff will be better than the staff last year. And I think the roster will be better as well.

              I see that today Anthony Weaver is not on the coaching staff for the Bills (first day), nor is he on the staff for the Browns, or is there any new news if he will coach for the Browns. I wonder if he could of screwed himself out of a job with the Bills, by asking permission to be interviewed by the Browns. Wikipedia says he's with the Browns, but anyone can put something on Wikipedia, there's no other source saying so.

                Loved him at Ohio St. Played every snap like it was his last.

                      HUUUUGE!!!!
                      I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
                      "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
                      You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
                      It was all                       true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
                      He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can                       mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

                          Kudos to landing Johnson not sure on Pagac but reading into things maybe Pepper wanted to work with him so don't mind bringing them both in. Time will tell just how well these guys will end up working together as one thing I liked about Pettine, O'Neil, Weaver and Henderson had a working history whereas Schwarz, Johnson, Pagac don't really have that and just hope everyone's on the same page. The only spot left is WR coach assuming we fill it with someone outside of Hostler.

                            Well, Pagac coached Pepper in College & Schwartz & Pepper both have ties to Belicheck.

                            I am liking this staff, EXPERIENCED guys, an upgrade from what Pettine had under him last year.

                              Here is a fun fact: Pepper Johnson has been with Bill Belichick for 24 years of his life...that's a mighty long time.

                              - Pepper played for the Giants for five years when Belichick was the defensive coordinator there

                              - Pepper played for the Browns for three years when Belichick was the Head Coach there

                              - Pepper played for the Jets for two years when Belichick was the assistant head coach / defensive guy there.

                              - Pepper coached linebackers and d-line the entire time Belichick has been the Head Coach for the Patriots, and that's 14 years.

                              Do the math...that's 24 years.

                              Nobody has been with Belichick longer in his football life. Dunno why he "decided" to leave, but Pepper Johnson has a great opportunity in Buffalo as the d-line coach...three Bills d-lineman played in the Pro Bowl this year.
