New Giants coach Brian Daboll needs to find a defensive coordinator, and a top guy, Patrick Graham, is already in the building.
. Daboll needs to find a defensive coordinator, and a top guy is already in the building. It is far from a done deal, but Daboll could decide to retain Patrick Graham, a move that would instantly gain Daboll popularity within the locker room he soon will control.
“My immediate goal is to assemble a coaching staff — a strong staff that emphasizes teaching and collaboration and making sure our players are put in the position to be their best and, ultimately, to win games,’’ Daboll said. “That’s why all of us do this. To teach, to be successful, to develop talent, and to win.’’Daboll, according to sources, might be inclined to keep several defensive assistants from Joe Judge’s coaching staff.
Daboll’s most important hire will be his defensive coordinator, and he might prefer to go outside the Giants’ organization. Other experienced defensive coordinator options include Mike Zimmer, Vic Fangio and Don “Wink” Martindale. Zimmer and Fangio were fired after this past season as head coaches. Martindale was recently let go as the Ravens’ defensive coordinator. Martindale impressed the Giants two years ago when he met with them for the head-coaching job that went to Judge.
In an odd twist, Judge wanted to hire Daboll as his offensive coordinator two years ago, but the Bills blocked the move. Judge went with Jason Garrett, the former Cowboys head coach, and Garrett ended up getting fired midway through his second season on the job. New head coaches often try to bring in assistants they worked with at previous stops and Daboll might try to raid the Bills’ staff. His quarterbacks coach in Buffalo, Ken Dorsey, would be an attractive hire, but there is a good chance Dorsey will get a promotion to offensive coordinator with the Bills.
