Current Open Job Rankings per Jason Cole

[Zero]

Informal poll of 7 NFL execs ranking current open jobs:

1. Broncos (unanimous)
2. Jaguars
3. Chargers
4. Rams
5. 49ers
6. Bills

Sobering to see the Jags ranked at #2. Even with new ownership in place this franchise continues to be worst-in-class.

Sadly sounds about right. The 49'ers are a flaming mess but we've worked pretty hard to make ourselves look bad.

I'm still trying to decide if the Niners bringing in both new guys (GM and head coach) is an advantage or disadvantage. It's a plus if they have somebody specific targeted (like the Shanahans) but could be a minus if they don't have their **** together and have to prolong the process by holding off on a coaching hire until they get a GM in place.

They wanted Chris Ballard out of KC, but he turned them down. Ballard is considered to be one of the top executive minds in the league. He was the guy who found Matt Forte, Charles Tillman, and Tommie Harris for Chicago. He also found Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelce, and Ramik Willson in Kansas City.

Personally I prefer a GM/HC search process because I think it shows a true commitment to cleaning house.

So, we take this is as gospel? I called 8 NFL executives and they said something totally different. My unnamed sources are better.

I feel the Niner's gig is worse than Buffalo. Awesome team destroyed and a coach given 1 year then the door. There is a lack of talent on that team.

Buffalo is #5 on my list.

Chargers have an aging QB situation and I would rent in San Diego. Rams... those 2 are a tie.

Jed York is an absolute disaster of an owner. 3 coaches in 3 years including running Harbaugh out of town? At least the guys we run out of town are awful.

So are the ones we don't, unfortunately.

Denver being the most attractive is a no brainer. And the talent on the JAX team is crazy, if they ever get decent QB play, I expect them to shoot up like the Raiders did this year (not to mention how much leeway Gus Bradley got, which should give any new coach some confidence he has time to turn things around).

LA is debatable. No first rounder, and Goff looked terrible as a rookie. Overall talent on that team doesnt look too great either.

But I dont see how SF and SD are ahead of us. SF is a given. But SD has an aging QB, and is in a division with (now) 3 teams who are playoff contenders...

My rankings:
1. Denver
2. Jax
3./4. Buf / LA
5. SD (or wherever they end up moving to)
6. SF

that's not quite what happened to the niners.

The GM went on a power trip, fired the top level head coach (jealousy?) a wave of retirements and a few years of bad drafting, plus a bumbling joke of a puppet to play coach for the ego tripping GM, and another wave of retirements and fa flights from the team, and ANOTHER bad year of drafting, and you get the niners.

and yes, I agree, the 49ers are a complete dumpster fire probably worse off then us.

Jason Cole is who again ?

Liked Lloyd Cole 20+ years back. My Bag and Perfect Skin were great songs.

Re: Current Open Job Rankings per Jason Cole

The only reason 2-5 are ranked higher is location. None of them have the talent the Bills do, and outside of Rivers, who is a turnover machine now, none have a good QB.
