The first domino has fallen in the head coaching search as Hue Jackson was hired by the Cleveland Browns. So, the question has to be asked, where is everyone else going to land?

(This information is from NFL Draft Rumors the projections are my own)
San Fransisco 49ers
Interviewed: Anthony Lynn, Chip Kelly, John DeFilippo, Dirk Koetter, Tom Coughlin.
Other rumored interest: Mike Shanahan, Mike Holmgren
The 49ers have never hired someone with previous head coaching experience before, but I think that could easily change this year. I think ultimately it comes down to Mike Shanahan and Chip Kelly.
FanSided
Prediction: Chip Kelly
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Interviewed: Dirk Koetter, Harold Goodwin, Sean McDermott
Other rumored interest: Mike Smith, Doug Marrone, Tom Coughlin, Nick Saban, Jimbo Fisher, Chip Kelly, Josh McDaniels, Mike Shanahan, Mike Holmgren.
This is an interesting situation because I would have imagined that this would have already been done. Unless Dirk Koetter is blown out of the water by another offer, I have to imagine it his job to lose.
Prediction: Dirk Koetter
Philadelphia Eagles
Interviewed: Pat Shurmur, Duce Staley, Ben McAdoo, Dirk Koetter, Tom Coughlin, Doug Penderson.
Other rumored interest: Teryl Austin, Sean McDermott, Paul Guenther, Mike Shanahan.
This one is harder to guess. I would have said Tom Coughlin because of the way that he seemed to end his relationship with the New York Giants, however that team may not want a coach that isn’t ready to be a long term option. I really like Teryl Austin as an eventual head coach somewhere and no matter if he is a position coach or a coordinator he always seems to mask holes in defenses. His ability to develop players and to scheme around weakness is a major asset.
Projection: Teryl Austin
New York Giants
Interviewed: Steve Spagnuolo, Ben McAdoo, Sean McDermott, Doug Marrone, Teryl Austin, Mike Smith.
Other rumored interest: Josh McDaniels, David Shaw, Brian Kelly
I think this one is easy just like the Tampa Bay Bucs job, when there is an OC who has talent and who a franchise quarterback is familiar with, you can’t let that guy walk. With McAdoo getting the most out of Eli Manning, I expect him to be there.
Projection: Ben McAdoo

Tennessee Titans
Interviewed: Mike Mularkey, Doug Marrone, Teryl Austin
Other rumored interest: Josh McDaniels, Chip Kelly, Mike Smith, Jim Schwartz
This is the one that most everyone here has been waiting for. Everyone and their mother has said that Mularkey is the top candidate, but that is only because he is the only person who has really been discussed publicly. That is making some writers panic that they won’t scoop everyone.
Honestly, this is a total crap shoot without knowing who the Titans next GM is. So I will break it down by GM.
Prediction with Jon Robinson as GM: Josh McDaniels
Prediction with Chris Ballard as GM: Dave Toub
Prediction with Chris Polian as GM: Doug Marrone
