NASHVILLE, Tenn. – There is a plan and a method to how Mike Vrabel is piecing his staff together, I have no doubt.
“Just like we do with players, we're not going to rush into decisions,” he said. “We're going to sleep on things. We're going to get the right guys in here for our team.
Later he told Jim Wyatt at the Senior Bowl: “You only get so many cracks at this thing. I am not going to hire a bunch of my buddies – I don’t have that many of them. I don’t think that is the way to go. I am looking for the right guys, the best guys to coach our team.”
I love that his staff won’t be filled with his buddies. Staff filled with friends can look like Mike Mularkey's did when he had Terry Robiskie and Bob Bratkowski as big parts of his offense.
