Can we do it for Coach Lewis

The biggest question is would we still hire Jay Gruden? He was the one who wanted Andy Dalton. Mike Brown supposedly wanted Mallet or Kaepernick. 

This is something I bring up more than a few times.  Our GM with 20 years of experience had to be talked into drafting our BEST QB THE FRANCHISE EVER SAW IN 50 YEARS over a giant bust and a guy who lost his job to a giant bust by a rookie OC fresh out of the Arena League.  If this is true, holy moly do we owe a lot to Jay Gruden.
