[quote=tryfuhl;657372]I'd bet there are less than 5 posters on here that can name 5 or more O-Line coaches. I'd bet that most people here can't name 5 OCs.

Face it, if it wasn't the O-Line coach from the Colts, plenty of people would have something to say negatively; hell even if it was people would wonder why the guy left.[/quote]

It's funny how people get locked on to certain people, probably just because of name value mainly. Meanwhile the people making these decisions are a hell of a lot more informed than we are, yet we seem to think we know best at times.

Re: Coaching Staff update
 

Haven't seen any updates regarding WR Coach... nary a tweet. Richard Mann from TB had been discussed earlier. Anyone have any scoopage?

Re: Coaching Staff update
 

Looks like we may have found our WR Coach or maybe this guy will work with Mann (they worked together w/ the Bucs)...

Adam Shefter just tweeted:
Redskins have retained Steve Jackson as Safeties Coach and named Sean McVay Offensive Assistant.

From Wikipedia:
Sean McVay (born January 24, 1986) is an American football coach. He is currently the wide receivers/quality control coach for the Florida Tuskers of the United Football League.

Happy Birthday Sean!

Sean McVay
Quality Control/Wide Receivers Coach, Florida Tuskers
Sean McVay joins the Florida Tuskers as Quality Control/Wide Receivers Coach. McVay spent the 2008 season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an Offensive Assistant. While in Tampa Bay, he worked closely with all members of the offensive coaching staff in the preparation and implementation of the offensive game plan. McVay was also instrumental in helping guide WR Antonio Bryant to 83 receptions for 1,248 yards and seven touchdowns, culminating in Bryant's The Sporting News Comeback Player of the Year Award.

McVay played college football at Miami (OH) University from 2004-07 where he was a starting kick returner and wide receiver. In 2007, he received Miami's Scholar-Athlete Award. In his senior year at Marist High School in Atlanta, Ga., McVay led his team to a state championship as quarterback while earning Georgia 4A Offensive Player of the Year honors.

So it sounds like no Mann, but we got his assistant? Is it definite he is the WR coach, or could he be here as a generic offensive assistant? 23 years old or somethin like that!

Re: Coaching Staff update
 

Between Gano, Haslett, and McVay, we are becoming quite the UFL pipeline.

Re: Coaching Staff update
 

I'm glad to see that the Redskins finally hired an offensive line coach. Maybe he can talk to Shanahan about the draft and have some influence there.

Yep, and in this case they probably hadn't heard of the top supposed candidates either, well with the exception of Alex Gibbs maybe.

Re: Coaching Staff update
 

Is it just me or is anyone else not completely sold on the Chris Foerster acquisition (OL coach). From a rushing standpoint he was mediocre in Baltimore and downright bad in San Fran. I don't know where the "highly regarded for his work with the 49ers" on DC Pro Sports is coming from...I don't like this signing at all.

2005: 42 sacks allowed
2006: 19 sacks allowed
2007: 39 sacks allowed
[B]2008: 55 sacks allowed[/B]
2009: 40 sacks allowed

Now admittedly he didn't have the best quarterbacks (J.T. O Sullivan, Kyle Boller) but don't you guys think Shanahan could have brought in someone a little better?

Maybe he was never given adequate talent.. who knows

O-Line guys don't draft, just recommend

2000 43
2001 31
2002 34
2003 42
2004 36
2005 45
2006 35
2007 24
2008 28
2009 26

He started with the 49ers in 2008 he inherited a line as bad as ours, got Joe Staley on his second year the only decent OL and was involved in drafting Chilo Rachal. Give him time.

Good points. Hopefully we give Forrester a lot to work with!
