Please let that happen. I would have been happy with either Del Rio, Edwards, or Bettcher. Now let's grab Russ Grimm as OL coach and this staff would be looking very strong.
I can't recall an instance of current ownership winning a bidding war for a big-name assistant coach. This isn't a "Mara/Tisch are cheap" complaint. It just doesn't seem to be the organization's MO to spend big on an established brand like Del Rio, who will certainly have multiple options - including a sabbatical at around $5MM.
Maybe it's coincidence that the Giants haven't competed in this market in the past. Maybe Gettleman and Shurmur have dictated a change. We'll see.
Anyway, I think Del Rio would be an excellent choice, and he comes with a huge network of coaching connections going all the way back to the Ravens' SB XXXV team.
Schefter says Del Rio is Leading Candidate for Giants DC
I love this hire, wanted him for dc as soon as I knew he was gone. Shurmur and one of his disciples can run the offense, and del Rio has full control of the defense. Seems similar to the LA Rams model.
Jack Del Rio and his wife sat across from my row in first class cabin from JAX to ATL about 10 years ago.
Couple of young kids walked up to front of plane and asked him for his autograph. Del Rio looked perturbed and told the kids he was busy and that he would sign it in the airport after they get off the plane.
Del Rio gets off the plane with the rest of our first class cabin and walks on his merry way down the terminal. The kids presumably deplane minutes later and never see him again.
Not for nothing, but that was a dick move...

Did you read the article? There is no bidding war. He is getting paid 6 million each of the next 3 years. Anything his new team gives him will be subtracted from Oakland's paycheck.

The guy doesn't want to be bothered in First Class? Yeesh
What are the makings of a Jack Del Rio 4-3 defense? I assume Linebackers are gonna be key since he played the position and always makes moves for them on every team he goes. But is it zone heave? Man heavy? Blitz or coverage based?

Now I want him even more as DC. Eli Apple better watch out now!

Giants should definitely disqualify him based on this story.
The nerve of a guy who is trying to enjoy some privacy on an airplane.
[quote ]Del Rio has been prominent on Shurmur's list of defensive candidates, and he is open to joining the presumptive Giants coach.
The Giants are planning to schedule a second interview this week with Shurmur, sources told ESPN. If Minnesota loses to the Eagles in Sunday's NFC Championship Game, the Giants can negotiate or sign Shurmur immediately.
Del Rio won't be doing it for money if he becomes the Giants' defensive coordinator. He is scheduled to average $6 million per year from the Raiders over the next three years, and any salary he is paid by the Giants simply will be offset against his Oakland contract, sources tell Mortensen.[/quote] Link - ( New Window )

I tend to agree. There just is no place for behavior like that in our society.

I have a good DelRio story. My friend's son was UDFA Fb for the Jaguars, the kid makes it to the final cut down, he has his knee blown out in practice, to this day DelRio has remained friends with my friend and his son.
The Raiders owe Del Rio $6 Million per for the next 3 years and are now also paying Gruden $10 Million per? Yikes
Gruden agreed to take a back loaded contract where he is paid 5 million the first three years. He will receive the bulk of of the money over the remainder of the contract which also will come in Vegas where there is no income tax.
You can't blame people for expecting the worst when the Giants have consistently brought back coaches despite their obvious flaw.
DiFillipo was rumored.
Look at him as a DC not a HC.

as OC? I looked at the current Vikings coaching staff and I don't see any likely possibilities.
DiFillipo was rumored.
And apparently Dorsey for QB coach.

Former Raiders HC Jack Del Rio is leading candidate to become Pat Shurmurs defensive coordinator for the Giants, per @mortreport.

That Mara will have the new coach keep Spags.

Everything about Gettleman is different.

Another one of Slade's predictions proven false.
😁
Have they stayed because they want to stay, or have they stayed because no body wants them?
