While the exact moves have not yet been decided (At least, as far as I've been told), the Arizona Cardinals are fully expected to make big time changes within either it's front office or it's coaching staff, or both. However, contrary to popular belief, simply firing a mass amount of people will not allow this franchise to put a better product on the field for us fans. Firing a mass amount of people and UPGRADING OVER THEM is what we need to do to accomplish that. Who we replace them with will come down to 2 things IMO: A] Who is available to fill the vacancie and B] Who much competition will we have for those individuals. In this thread, we will be tracking the other expected league vacancies and who those other teams are expected and/or rumored to be filling them with. Rumor stuff is fine for me, so long as it comes from a decently credible source. No random twitter posts or Bleacher Report stuff guys.

I'm going to turn this thread into an official interview watch for all of the other team's head coaching candidates, I think it could be a very useful tool for all of us to track the other moving parts of the 6 teams looking for head coaches and allow us to know who our competition is/isn't for certain coaches.

Saw that it was posted in another thread, but figured I mention this here...

Adam Schefter reporting Graves, among three other GMs, most likely to lose their jobs after the season.

At this point, I think we would all view it as a major upset if Graves wasn't demoted or fired and Steve Kiem take over.

Let's try and keep this to outside the franchise type news. We've got lots of other places where we can discuss our own internal personnel.

Sounds like AJ Smith and Norv Turner are both out in San Diego. According to Peter King, Steve Mariucci wants that job; Andy Reid has been floated as a possibility as well.

Tony Sparano is reportedly out in New York. That'll make another team needing an offensive coordinator.

I think it would be best to go outside the organization for a HC.

Kyle Shanahan
Mike McCoy
Todd Haley
Bruce Arians

Michael Lombardi noted that Ron Rivera is "certainly" out in Carolina. Chip Kelly got floated for that job.

According to writers from Sports Illustrated, Bills head coach Chan Gailey and Jaguars head coach Mike Mularkey are both out. Jaguars GM Gene Smith is out but the Bills are reportedly 50-50 in Buddy Nix.

It's also been reported that Chip Kelly is seeking quote "near full control" over personnel decisions.

Reid will take a year off if/when he gets canned from Eagles.

He will do TV and then might come back for 2014.

Why has Gruden's name fallen off the radar atm?
