Quote from: Uncle Mickey on Today at 10:19:09 AMI mean when I look at the last 5-7 OL coaches we have had that might be the greatest joke of all time!
Most of them are not even coaching OL anymore in the NFL and many of them had very, very weak resumes to boot. That was a horrific job by this organization finding a good one. Now this Bracillo guy his resume and rep when you listen to a bunch of guys who either know him closely or have played under him are absolutely glowing. Been waiting a long time for them to get this position on the staff adequate addressed.
I would argue the O-line coach is as important as your OC and DC. First off, they are the only position to coach 5 players on the field (6 in heavy tight-end packages), with the possible exception of a DB coach in a system that plays mostly nickel. Second, I don't think there is a position in the league where prospects come in less prepared for NFL games than O-linemen. Finally, with the CBA limits, coaching O-linemen has never been more challenging owing to the lack of time in pads.
