Nothing, I like him but to insert a guy even with him a 1st ballot HOF player into anything other than an assistant role would be a reach.

Why would he be anything but an assistant?

That would be a good way for Reed to gain experience...having Pagano watching over his shoulder. Doubtful he'd get that chance at the NFL level.

I'm saying assistant to the DB coach, or a special title that would be assistant to an assistant.

Oh I see, yeah hopefully that's all he is. If he shows he's able to coach then promote him down the line.

Yeah, I agree, it can't hurt to have him on staff, but I'm not going to blow my load over a previous player coaching until I actually know he can coach. A short stint for the Bills isn't very impressive.

Not saying it is, but everyone has to start somewhere. Ed will at least be able to give his insight in the film room just like Zach Miller does for Nagy/Biscuit. That at minimum helps.

So Pagano could be bringing Reed along as assistant DC if the Bears are ok with it.

With some of the unqualified garbage hired at HC recently, I don't see why anyone would have problem with Reed coming here.
He's smart and intense....those are the qualities we need on "D"

One thing is for sure.....Reed brings a SB pedigree. We haven't had that for a while

It happens more than you think Dan Campbell is an example. Guys like Peyton Manning, Mark Sanchez, and Urlacher would be good coaches you can usually tell pretty early on.

With some of the b.s. in coach hiring.....how could anybody question bringing Reed in? Reed is a smart guy who deserves a shot

Depends on the position...are you saying he should be named head DB coach?

The head DB coach will really just be Pagano's assistant as he likes to focus a lot in that side.

Ed Reed was the assistant DB coach for the Buffalo Bills in 2016 and Kentucky was interested in hiring Ed Reed.
Falcons Dan Quinn and other teams have been bringing Ed Reed in for coaching seminars.
