They wouldn't have moved yet. No ink on paper for anyone. Just pre-recruitment. I know Darrell Bevell ex Seahawks OC was rumored to be going to Indy. He was fired a few weeks ago...he'll land on his feet.
fair enough but the podcast I listened to earlier seem to think they’ve already begun working for them .

Like cheese boy says, they'll be ok and all will find jobs, even if some already quit. The Super Bowl we just witnessed had in its top staff:

Belicheck (long time Patriots HC, former Browns HC), McDaniels (former Broncos HC), Patricia (new Lions HC), Pederson (former high school HC, plus NFL coordinator), Reich (Frank, not Third; NFL coordinator), and Schwartz (former Lions HC).

So of the top 6 staff, 1 was coaching High School a few years ago and 3 have been fired as Head Coaches.

They'll be ok.

Nah, they all work for the HC and there's nothing to do before McDaniels starts. They're part of McDaniels's crew. NFL HC assemble their staffs much like you see a Manager assemble his back room, but the turnover is big and expected with NFL jobs.

I think radio talking heads are probably taking an extreme view. Not saying that Bevell as an example hadn't been studying tape, the roster, etc...so yeah he was probably already doing homework.

I think the biggest fallout of this whole thing is McDaniel's trust level around the league. I reckon about one owner trusts him at this point (Craft).

I was reviewing his personnel moves when he was in Denver...absolutely shocking decisions.
 
I still don’t blame McDaniels for having a rethink when it became clear the Pats were going to take one last shot at a title next year and then blow it up. The Colts are about as terribly run an organization as the Browns, except they have a franchise QB.
 
Still kinda floored that SF signed Jimmy G instead of franchising him.

A guy who looked decent in 7 NFL starts just got the biggest contract in the league. Madness if you ask me. Far more risk than reward signing him long term versus doing a full season test drive under the franchise player tag.

He hasn't started a meaningful game. Mental stuff.

Fixed. Out of 6 top coaches in the super bowl, all 6 either are or were recently NFL head coaches. They'll be ok.
 
Alright, lads, I need some help with my Dynasty FFL squad. I've got too many players rostered and I like many of them, and need to cut 1 more. (Actually, I need to cut 5, but I have to cut 1 more before the draft hits, then I can make trades to clear space). Who do you like/not like and who should I cut from this list?

RB
Carlos Hyde
Matt Breida
LeSean McCoy
Tarik Cohen
Austin Ekeler
Peyton Barber
Spencer Ware

WR
DeAndre Hopkins
Keenen Allen
Tyreek Hill
Randall Cobb
Paul Richardson
DaVante Parker
Mike Williams
Corey Davis

I'm leaning towards S Ware or P Richardson (or both) but willing to listen to all ideas.

*I've also got these TE: J Graham, J Reed, R Seals-Jones and K: Gostkoski.

I could clear out any of these, and maybe I'll opt for Gostkowski since we'll see more action on RB and WR movement near the draft and I can always draft another K (or redraft Gostkowski)

Never played in a dynasty league but your RB's seem a bit crap. Just on face value these all seem to be expendable.

Matt Breida
Tarik Cohen
Austin Ekeler
Peyton Barber
Spencer Ware

What am I missing?

I guess the difference between dynasty and keeper is scarcity of talent. I can keep a guy forever, so I’ll prospect all the talent i can.

Breida is likely #1 in SF when Hyde leaves.

Cohen is crazy talented. He’s an injury away from being Shady McCoy.

Ekeler and Barber are talented but deep on charts.

Ware is probably the obvious cut, given that he not only has to battle the injury, but also the depth chart.
