McCaskey said he prefers GM first and GM hires coach, correct? Yes, sorry that was worded confusing. McCaskey would prefer GM first. But if they felt they had a coach they loved they would consider. Couldn't say what that circumstance would be but they'd know when they saw it. i took it as, if Harbaugh or Payton was realistic, they’d do it and figure out the GM later. For most candidates they’d rather the GM be the deciding factor.
