Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
After Oregon coach Chip Kelly ducked out of an offer to become the Bucs head coach early Monday, the team moved quickly to schedule second interviews, most likely to be held in Tampa this week. Bucs GM Mark Dominik was in the process Monday of informing candidates the team interviewed whether they were finalists or no longer under consideration. Sherman is the first to be confirmed for a second interview but there are likely to be more. The Bucs are scheduling second interviews from a list of known candidates that include former Bengals defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer, former Vikings coach Brad Childress, former Browns, Chiefs, Redskins and Chargers coach Marty Schottenheimer, Titans defensive coordinator Jerry Gray, Packers quarterbacks coach Tom Clements and Panthers offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski.
