I don't know. I think they'll take a flyer on an unknown commodity this time. I could see them going after Liam Coen, Joe Brady and Kellen Moore as top tier targets while looking at other names like Wes Philips and Klint Kubiak.

Throw enough money at them and they'll probably bite. There's been two catches mentioned so far already about the next coach that's hired.

1. The coach will report directly to the owner. Big whoop. This was the same deal for Pederson.

2. It's Baalke's final year on his contract if I am not mistaken. It's possible Khan moves on in 2026 and allows the coach to make the decision on a GM that he wants to work with or they both fail epically and we're picking again inside the top five.

Thus, a full reboot.
