Colin Cowherd: “Adam Schefter says Jim Harbaugh would likely ‘entertain’ NFL offers. We know that, Don Ye, his new agent, is an NFL guy, of course Harbaugh is going to consider the NFL. There are nine potential openings... Raiders, Chargers, Carolina – already fired their coach. Atlanta, New England, Washington, Saints, Bucs, Titans, there’s a lot of rumors out there and a lot of discussion. If the Saints don’t win this weekend with the best quarterback, arguably, in the division, with a loaded payroll – Dennis Allen is in trouble, he’s won 35% of his games. Mike Vrabel reportedly wants out of Tennessee. Belichick has told his staff that he’s unsure of his future. Ron Rivera and Arthur Smith are in BIG trouble. I don’t really know what’s going on in Tampa, but you can see them moving on if an offensive coach was available. What makes a great opening in the NFL? Number one, not close, star quarterback, big-time quarterback. Number two, a non-meddling owner. You don’t want David Tepper in Carolina. Some Draft capital would be nice. Current talent, you don’t have to do a total rebuild – I want some players. And your cap situation... Let’s start going through these: Carolina – owner, roster; HARD PASS. New England – roster, quarterback; NO THANKS. New Orleans – HORRIBLE cap situation. Atlanta and Vegas – no quarterback. Tampa – Baker and Mike Evans have a short-term future. There’s only two jobs where you look at and go ‘OH, THAT’S INTERESTING.’ Number one is the obvious one, the Chargers. Justin Herbert, Keenan Allen, Rashawn Slater a left tackle, and an edge rusher named Bosa. The Spanos family has got some cap situations, a little bit ugly. They’re going to move off Khalil Mack or Bosa, probably move off Derwin James, very fixable stuff. They have to get a center too, Corey Linsley may not play again. Washington Commanders – most cap space, new owner, if Sam Howell has to be a one-more-year starter behind a Michael Penix, I’m OK with that. Nice roster, interesting weapons. You look at nine potential openings. Regardless of what the NCAA does with their punishment of Connor Stalions, two [offers] I would take a phone call on. TWO, that’s it. The Chargers are the second-richest franchise in their city, so you have to consider staying at Michigan. The Rams have more money than they know what to do with. The Commanders don’t have a great recent history, but historically when they get the owner right, Washington wins games. I would stay at Michigan unless it was the Chargers.” (Full Segment Above)
