What's left - AZ and Ind?

AZ is by far the worst of these jobs.
Stuck with Murray and that contract, plus he's injured for the majority of '23 season. Old team that needs a re-boot, but not a lot of options to work with...AND the 3 other HC in the division have all been to the Super Bowl.

Indy by all observations seems to be the Owner's pick (Saturday) vs. the front office begging him to go elsewhere. Not a stable environment to walk into.

Denver and the Saints have been discussing two potential packages for Sean Payton:

1. Denver’s 2023 first-round pick and next year’s second-round pick for Payton and the Saints’ 2024 third.

2. Denver’s 2024 first-round pick and its 2023 fourth.

Saints choice.





Broncos 2023 1st was in the Wilson trade, as was their 2023 2nd


They got a pick in this years first from SF... assuming that is going to NO.

The #Saints and #Broncos just finalized the deal on compensation and sources say New Orleans gets a first-rounder and an early pick — likely a 2nd rounder — but also give a pick back. Complex deal but now done. Sean Payton will be the #Broncos coach.



Another first rounder gone? Jesus, Paton....
Two "Paytons" in Denver - Sean and George (his last name is pronounced

Dankbeerman : 1/31/2023 4:41 pm : link
is spend all your draft capital on an aging QB spend big time dollara on him and when the Coach you hire blows double down and spend what little draft capital you managed to recoup to pair him with a Coach who walked away from his last job to maximize the $$ he could demand.

Just so you can fight for 3rd in your division for the next 8 years behind 2 stud QBs

to see how it goes and perhaps he will be the highest paid HC.

I don't think this was his ideal spot that he wanted but who knows if that ever comes out.

Pretty tough football town and they have high expectations.

Lots of good parts in place with Denver...

Now it's up to Payton to revitalize Wilson. I'd bet there is still gas left in Wilson's tank.

You have to admire the challenge of taking on Mahomes and the Chiefs. If this works, Spanos may have a lot of regrets keeping Staley...

I have to imagine Payton gets final say in ALL things personnel.
Saints  
Sammo85 : 1/31/2023 4:50 pm : link
should probably gamble and take next years pick. That Chubb trade pick is in the late 20s this year and they don't have ammo to trade up for a QB this year given Eagles have their pick. Given their cap, they probably will be top 15 next year.

Payton has his work cut out for him to get this team to playoffs in their division. Chiefs and Chargers 4 games a year?

Can see that pick next year being in mid to late teens still and being bundle-able for a trade up given Saints probably won't be good next year.

Which is No. 29 this year. Looks like it's this year's 1st, and next year's 2nd, and they get a 3rd in 2024 back from the Saints.

That would leave Denver with 2 thirds, and 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th rounders this year. Next year they will have their own 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th while adding the Saints 3rd.

@AdamSchefter
Timing of today’s two hires was completely coincidental. Broncos were zeroed in on Sean Payton, and didn’t make any contact this week with DeMeco Ryans or his agent. Denver was focused on Payton, and Houston on Ryans.
What about the first we’re owed from the Shockey trade?

Which scenario makes more sense to you?

Ryans has been rumored to be Houston’s coach for two days now. And Denver needs an offensive mind to figure out their huge investment at QB. This isn’t difficult to come to a conclusion that Shefter is very likely correct here

"All we need is a QB, ok let's trade a boatload of picks and some players for Russ Wilson. Whoops, now we need a coach, let's trade a bunch of picks for a coach. Now we have everything we need!" This is never the case.

If they don't win it all next year, they've got substantial assets tied up into the QB and coach, and not a lot of options for getting any cheap, good players. So, in a year or two they've got Russ and Sean and bunch of holes.

Schefter just said on "NFL Live" that is was no coincidence that Payton was wearing an orange tie Sunday on Fox's NFCC coverage. Apparently, both sides have been working to finalize this deal/opportunity for the last two weeks.

Wonder if Ryan's agent was floating that to Rap to get McNair to finally pull the trigger. In other words, a bluff.

Remember, Ryan's name was brought up early last week as the likely coach of the Texans.

That isn’t a scenario that’s possible. Payton “retired” leaving the deal he signed unfinished. Unless NO negotiated some other way to let him go, this is it.

Rory : 1/31/2023 9:51 pm : link
but firing a HC after only 1 season is just absurd. That is alot of turnover in a very short period and players need to adjust to that.

is Sean Payton going to have a bigger impact on the club then 2 top 30 draft picks? I'm not certain that works when you have a veteran QB.
Peyton pay from NO?

How did Daboll change the Giants in a few months? Payton has better players than the Giants do. I doubt Russell Wilson woke up one morning and became Mark Sanchez.
The Broncos will not win that division, lots of good teams, but they will be quite competitive.
A top of the line coach absolutely is worth two 1st round picks.
Daboll and Peterson  
UConn4523 : 2/1/2023 6:59 am : link
both turned their respective franchises around. You can’t waste your time on a HC that clearly is in over their head and that was Hackett. My guess is what we saw as fans wasnt as bad as how it looked internally as well.

And if he doesn’t are YOU going to retract? Of course you won’t. Wilson was noting short of absolute trash this past season. It wasn’t all because of the coaching.

It’s funny, you’ve constantly had the stance that franchise QBs can overcome poor coaching, poor talent, etc. They make everyone around them better. Your act is beyond tired. Just a horrific poster.
Whether or not you think Payton is the man for the job  
DieHard : 2/1/2023 1:08 pm : link
He's got a tough road ahead. Even if Wilson plays better he's still going to be the third best QB in that division.

True but Payton wasn't even their first choice, and they fired Hackett well before they knew who was going to be available. They just kind of got lucky on the selection.

Jones has certainly "turned it around" this year, yet you have not retracted your "dumb" comments. (I'd say your comments have been completely moronic, but I digress)

If Wilson doesn't perform under one of the top offensive minds in Payton its probably safe to say he's cooked. But somehow I think he looks entirely different under an elite offensive guy like Payton. I dont think ball was missing a lot of zip this year nor did he look he couldn't move well enough in the pocket. He had Brees plying well way past his prime. I think he does the same for Russ.
