Wonder if we're going to bring in Mendoza's college QB coach? I read somewhere he was a possibility.

Whitmer? That would be quite a get for us. He has a good resume.

Jordan Traylor worked with Kubiak in NO in 2024. He was QB coach there and is currently the Vikings Assistant OC.

Hoping this, or something like this happens.

I like Dennison, but I think he is only the offensive line coach because Kubiak had to start hiring his staff so late in the game. I expect us to either hire a younger OL coach this year with the idea of him taking over next or a new hire next year. Either way, Dennison will probably be moved to an advisor after this year.

Combine is next week, are we going to have a QB coach hired? Not that I think we need him there since it sounds like Mendoza is not going to throw. But meeting him and talking with him? That could be important for a QB coach to be on board.
