Summary

Dan and the Danettes discuss the seven current openings for coaching in the NFL, as well as the candidates with attractive names. Dan looks at Oregon quarterback Dante Moore and Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza and, while they are good stories, he’s not sure they’re really the top picks for the NFL Draft. Former NFL quarterback and football analyst Dan Orlovsky joins Dan and talks about the NFL job openings and who he thinks is the hottest quarterback going into the NFL playoffs.
