If not Byron, how about another former Jaguar in Nathaniel Hackett? He has roots with the team, is an innovative offensive mind to mentor Lawrence, and -- perhaps, most importantly -- seems to be the absolute antithesis to Meyer.
As I've written, I think the whole thing needs blown up, again. I think Khan needs to find a GM or a president of football operations or whatever he wants to title that person, and then turn the football operation over to him. The No. 1 issue right now, in my mind, is who is going to advise Khan in finding that man? He needs to turn a deaf ear to the people in his building and seek advice from the outside. The Jaguars don't need a play-caller. They need a man who knows how to manage an NFL franchise.

And I know he has Aaron Rodgers but isn't Trevor supposed to be highly gifted as well? I could get behind Hackett but I also agree (yikes) with Vic in that we need a really good GM first.

I struggle with my anti Nate Hackett bias from when he was here. But I also know this organization has the innate ability to make even Einstein look dumb.
Joe Cullen is the only staff member I would consider keeping, but if a good competent GM says he has to go and Hackett was incoming, I could deal with it. As long as everyone agrees Gus Bradley's name should never be uttered within the walls of the stadium ever again.

I'd take Bradley as DC in a New York minute.

He could try and put together a counsel. Reach out to the likes of Parcells, Polian and Wolf. These were all major players in a large capacity at the executive and roster building level.
He has to get that hire in place first. Then, stay out of the way. He's failed for a decade. His son has also failed. He needs to find a face of the organizational side of things so he can develop the actual face of the franchise.
Ideally. I think it should be narrowed down to two pairings already. That's Rick Smith and Jim Caldwell or Mike Borgonzi and Doug Pederson. I really feel like these two groups have the potential to turn things around within two years.

Love those guys. I was especially high on Leonard. His only knock was that he played at a tiny school (South Carolina State.)

It doesn't state the reasons he withdrew, but he seems selective.
