I just don't see the 49ers going with a DB coach when their primary justification for moving on from Wilkes (or at least their public justification for it) was that he didn't connect with the DL/LBs and that was what SF preferred to build their defense around.
But we know Merritt will almost certainly be gone when his kids graduate unless we promote him (and the competition between him and Cullen would be pretty fierce). Any interviews he gets will only help him in future opportunities.
So while I'd hate to lose him A) I don't think we will just yet and B) Fellas - it's inevitable. The lack of brain drain from our organization to this point has been damn near unprecedented.
