I think he's basically a money man, not a personnel guy. That's what I've read at least. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Depot it's reported that we'd also receive compensation. I think the thought is that we had the minority person on staff so we've already hired him. So it's kind of like we're being rewarded for hiring Khan in the first place. At least that's how I interpreted it. It’s were rewarded for hiring and developing him to be able to take a job like that. If he takes it I think it’s a sign Hunt is going to take it. Although got to wonder if there might be a Wiz/Grimm and Tomlin situation out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just typed it but got to wonder if there’s a candidate out there the Rooney might like that could get Khan/Hunt to go somewhere as a package deal with Khan being VP and Hunt being GM.

The older one benefited the team that HIRED a minority ( which is as it should be). Why should the Steeler's benefit if a team hires Khan? Only if its an upgraded role. The "logic" is that the team he was hired from groomed him and trained him for a promotion. Im not going to turn down a reward, but its all completely stupid. No one should be compensated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armsteeld Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 How would you guys feel about Brian Flores as the Defensive Coordinator (if he doesn't get a new HC opportunity)? His schemes are aggressive and complex and his base is the 3-4 system. Coach Tomlin isn't afraid to hire former head coaches (Lebeau, Munchak, Haley) and I feel he and Flores would make for some great defensive football. Thoughts? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him or Fangio would be nice...although Im not entirely in favor of canning Butler. If he goes though, there are at least a few decent options to replace him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jebrick Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I would love to get Flores as the DC and Asst Head coach and have him on hand when Tomlin retires. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Want the dumbest thing: Imagine what would happen if Khan becomes a PoFO, takes Hunt to be GM, and we hire a minority GM. We get picks for Khan, Hunt, 10 pick bump, and a pick for the GM hire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August4th Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I wonder if the steelers will go back to block numbers full-time. I read somewhere that the reason they've stuck with the current font for so long, was because it was tied to the Ben era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
