My biggest question is what makes Kyle Richardson worth $50K more than Spiller and Grisham with him just becoming the on the field TE coach in 2023, and I personally haven't seen anything special that he has brought to the offensive side of the ball.

I can see where the OC and the DC should be making more than all other coaches bc of their responsibility. I can see how the offensive and defensive line coaches are making more than the position coaches bc they have more guys that they are responsible for bringing along.

The position coaches I think they should be paid by how well they can recruit their position, and how well their position players perform on the field after being coached by their position coach.

So, I ask what has Kyle Richardson done with the TE's over what Spiller or Grisham has done with the position players that they have coached that does basically the same thing on the field. I know and understand that none of those three have much on the field coaching experience, but Spiller and Grisham I believe have a full season more experience than Richardson has bc he just became an on the field coach in 2023, and I'm wondering what makes his position with only one season of experience worth $50k more than what Spiller and Grisham are being paid with both of those guys having more on the field coaching experience than Richardson has. That is the part of handing out the raises that I really don't understand bc I don't think that any of us have seen anything that Richardson has done that makes him worth $50K more than two other coaches that has more experience than he does, and they coach their players to do basically the same thing as far as blocking, catching, and handling the ball.

Can’t blame Cade for the lack of blocking. Not having time to get the ball to the open receivers and not having time to let routes develop. Also can’t blame Cade for dropped passes. If the oline play and receiver blocking/pass catching improves and Cade still has problems, then you can blame him. It’s hard to read a defense when they are in your lap as soon as the ball is snapped. It is hard to play QB when you have your confidence broken early in the season because you can’t trust the line to block for you and you can’t trust the receivers to catch the balls thrown their way. Several of the picks he threw last year were on dropped passes and bad/unfinished routes. Let’s wait and see if there is improvement in oline play this year and not rush to judge a kid who was picking himself up off the ground 9 out of 10 dropbacks.

And Grisham did nothing to earn a pay raise. Bring back coach JS quickly please. Hope the receivers improve and play way better whether Grish stays or goes. But Coach Scott is a must have. He was by far our best recruiter and best receiver coach.
