Adam Schefter: I expect the Saints to have some level of interest in Mike Vrabel [mod edit]
Unless someone like Johnson or Vrabel are legitimately interested, the Saints need to consider rolling the dice with a coach from the college ranks like Lanning in Oregon or Marcus Freeman with Notre Dame. I know they both just signed extensions, but it's worth investigating.
First, however, they need to hire a new Front Office and GM. Explore the heads of scouting or executive leadership with Green Bay, Baltimore, KC and LA Rams for candidates.
Beyond Johnson and Vrabel, I'm not impressed with any of the other options at the NFL level. All are either one year wonders (Coen) or have questionable history/have failed in other locations (Monken, Kingsbury, Flores, etc).
I know Brady is popular on here, but it has been suggested that he is not HC material based on prior interviews.
