Zac Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Among the names already speculated as possible replacements for Mularkey are former New Orleans Saints coach Jim Haslett, recently fired Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Ted Cottrell and current Bills special teams coach Bobby April. Haslett and Cottrell served on Buffalo coaching staffs in the past. Haslett has strong ties to Bills assistant general manager Tom Modrak and some current and past players have already begun lobbying for Cottrell to be interviewed. April was the league's special teams coach of the year in 2004, is popular with players, and is seeking a head coach position. Per ESPN. Interesting.

Yeah a lot of offensive and defensive coordinators and positional coaches have become HC's, but not ST's coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EM sure is opinionated these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I'll admit I don't know why, but I would really like it if Bobby April were named HC. Of course, it may be all this giddiness for the MM news hasn't worn off yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
