Hopefully, Pags will be the next to go. Ballard is cleaning house.

Please finish the job, and get rid of Pagano !!!

Pagano isn't going anywhere. They retained the scouts and heads until the draft because there was no time to remake everything. This doesn't extend to Pagano.

Exactly. You can't bring in a guy in March (Ballard) and bring on an all-new scouting staff and be ready for the draft. You use the current scouting staff, who have done work all year long, and then boot them after the draft.

Cold reality. But it's how these work.

Excited for Ballard installing his own staff.

It's actually good for the current staff. Plenty of time to line up the next job. No one was surprised.

Totally agree, not surprised by this at all. Ballard is wiping all of the Grigson shit off his shoes. Pagano will be next, next year.

He's not going anywhere this year, but he has a hell of a chance to go next year.

Sure. I hope so. I liked the idea of bringing on Taub, assuming that is actually who Ballard wants. I'd like to retain some of Pagano's staff though. I'd be fine keeping Chud probably. I want to keep Philbin. Schottenheimer might be worth keeping.
