I hope not. Even vanilla thinks this guy is plain.

This. The game has passed him by. Same way it passed Lovie Smith, Ron Rivera, and many of the other top defensive minds of the early 2000s and 2010s. Bradley hasn't been anything special for almost a decade now. Turning us down in 2017 was a blessing in disguise.

He can help with the linebackers not named Fred Warner and hopefully Dre Greenlaw.

so this is a bad hire
You know you screwed up when they have to go out and hire two DC's LOL

Every defensive player should be on edge

they didnt hire two DCs tho. they hired Saleh as DC. he then brought in his former boss as an assistant. i see it as returning the favor and doing Gus a solid for basically starting Saleh's coaching career.

there's no need to create dramatic narratives.

tried that and got burnt

Pretty good backup plan when Saleh leaves
Only good things will come from this hire. We still need the right guys on the field though.

Why would you replace Saleh with Bradley. Much rather develop KJ Wright..

Assuming the defense does anything.

Its not a bad hire. But if people are looking for him to be the DC when Saleh gets his next job- that would be bad. As I said, let him help with the linebackers.

This is how I see it. Coaches do this all the time.

This gives Wright more time to develop under the watchful eye of guys who can guide him along the way.

Sherm was a part of the backfield. His nickname is sherm not Legion of Boom.
