  • Brownsย chief strategy officer Paul DePodesta plans toย continue to living in California and commuteย to Cleveland. (Mary Kay Cabot)

Eagles

  • Jimmy Kempski suggests free agent DT Nick Fairleyย as someoneย could end up being aย bargain signing this offseason.
  • Kempski notes thatย Fairley previously played for new Eagles’ DC Jim Schwartz while in Detroit, so this could be something to at least keep an eye on.

Packers

  • Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk seems to think Packers HC Mike McCarthy could enter the 2016 season on the hot seat, given that Green Bay hasn’t performed all that well in the playoffs since their 2010 Super Bowl title.

Rams

  • Jim Thomas mentions thatย it looks like Rams HC Jeff Fisher is leaning more towards hiring a passing game coordinator and having Rob Boras as his offensive coordinator.
  • Thomas adds thatย theย Rams are interested in former Eagles OCย Pat Shurmur for thisย post.

Saints

  • Mike Triplett of ESPN wonders if P Thomas Morestead could be more of a luxury for the Saints.
  • Triplett doesn’tย expect the Saints to cut ties with Morstead this year, but there’s at least some question about whether he’ll be back seeing as he’sย scheduled to make $3.5 million in salary and bonuses.
