Goodbye Gregg Williams?
Rams named Gregg Williams as defensive coordinator.
Gregg Williams reportedly has agreed to become Jeff Fisher's defensive coordinator with the St. Louis Rams.
The NFL Network reported Monday that the Saints' defensive coordinator, whose contract expired after the season, agreed to join Fisher in St. Louis. Williams has called Fisher one of his closest friends in the coaching business.

not official
this is once again Adam Scheffter’s report that it is likely to happen. Not saying it’s not GOING to happen, but this is not an official announcement

LaCanfora
cited a “league source” (which could be Schefter, I guess) in this video from nfl.com.

not familiar with linking this to the
FDL post Satch just put up. Think this should be added to the comments there as well
FDL updated
Best wishes, Gregg. I’m ready for a change on D. Should be interesting to see who becomes the new DC and how he sets out to change things for the better. With the consistency of our O, this should be a very desirable job for someone.
"As soon as Tony (Dungy) said we had no chance, I knew we had 'em right where we wanted 'em"--Coach Sean Payton right after Super Bowl XLIV with the Lombardi Trophy firmly in hand. WHO DAT!!

Mike Triplett just reported that reportedly
OC Pete Carmichael interviewed with Oakland this weekend

Bradley Handwerger
cites the same LaCanfora video and Vilma tweet in his piece

"So I guess the blitz died.'' - Alex Smith
I think we're pretending it's not official.
I’m glad this site really is insitent on getting it right. But, c’mon it’s done. He’s gone.
Not that I want to be a grouch about it.

Oh, I believe it, too, that he's gone, but all these different places are just citing the same "league sources"
and no one from either team has officially confirmed it

and then Jeff Duncan
cites this STLtoday story, but it seems to me that it’s not anything more than an echo of the “league sources” from the LaCanfora video

I’ll just remain cautiously optimistic until it gets more “bite” to it
