Paul Kuharsky:

Per @AdamSchefter, #Jaguars will interview DC Mel Tucker for HC job. Will fulfill Rooney rule. I'm w/ @APMarkLong: Tucker has zero shot.

Brian Costello:

Source: Rob Ryan has been hired by the Rams as their new defensive coordinator.

Hmmm. That kind of sucks. I'd guess they switch schemes (Long, Quinn to OLB)?

Jason La Canfora:

Made some calls on the Rob Ryan story. From what I gather he is definitely the top choice there but heard no contact with Rams just yet

 

[ChrisPozz]

Manish Mehta:

I'm told former Eagles OC Marty Mornhinwig is on Jets' OC list. I believe he's interviewing as early as today. #nyj

Eeek. I like Marty a little bit for what he reportedly brings to the team as a teacher but I'd have to be talked into thinking that that's a great fit for him.

 

[ChrisPozz]

The Jets have just 10 returning starters under contract for next season. I'd like to know how often something like that happens? Even if the team doesn't want a good number of them back or won't when they hire their new GM.
