Just a year ago, I was all the way in on pulling the plug on Joe Barry to hire Vic Fangio. This year, I would have no real interest in him. He might do an alright job, as he is the only person who can run his scheme alright and Miami was an okay defense, but the scheme has reached its expiration date.

i think miamis defense was very good until they lost 8 starters to injury

Christian Watson’s dad agrees with me.
Is he not next in line for the Ravens DC job? Surely McDonald is up outta there for a HC job. No shot he won’t be. So I feel like the natural progression is to go from pad fake coordinator to DC.
The Ravens actually have 3 viable McDonald replacements already on staff. There's 1) Chris Hewitt (Secondary/Pass game coord., who we're already talking about), 2) Anthony Weaver (Asst HC/DL Coach), and 3) Zach Orr (ILB Coach) who are all very highly thought of.
There's no telling who would eventually succeed McDonald but I would think the guy with the Asst HC title would get first dibs at DC. Where that leaves the other two is anybody's guess.
heard elsewhere (rumor mill) maybe SI that Weaver is the front runner, again just a rumor, I'd take whomever of the 3 doesn't replace McDonald, probably lean with Hewitt
both have 12 yrs of experience and been obviously successful

Yeah Baltimore's defense seems to be the new wave in the league.
It's better to get in on these things earlier than have fully developed. So Hewitt and Weaver seem to be my top picks.

Not happy about Barry being fired.
Now a new DC will waste Preston's talents and put him as a pass rusher. Now who will be CB1?
