Im really surprised.

Who we got filling these roles? Who do we want to see in there? Does anybody else need to go? Not a fire Shanny thread please.

Re: Redskins Coaching Vacancies
 

Daniels tweeted a while back that he was looking for a coaching job this year.

Re: Redskins Coaching Vacancies
 

I hope he got that coaching job. I don't see Director of Player Development being a hard role to fill if Phillip Daniels can do it with no experience. I am curious to see who we get to coordinate special teams and coach the wideouts though.

Bob Slowick!! He's Shanahan's coaching Swiss army knife.

Re: Redskins Coaching Vacancies
 

I say Steve Spagnuolo for special teams coordinator. Ha, ha. That would be awesome, but I can't see him stooping to that level.

I wonder if some at Redskins park were a little put off by his open admission that the Skins ran a bounty program under Gregg Williams....

That probably didn't help

Re: Redskins Coaching Vacancies
 

Special Teams Coach= Gary Clark or someone his same type of personality-- Fire!

Wide Receivers Coach= Rod Smith

Director of Player Development=someone else who wants to get into coaching bad enough to babysit.

Re: Redskins Coaching Vacancies
 

Maybe we could bring in Albert Hansworth to be Director of Player Development.

Re: Redskins Coaching Vacancies
 

What the heck does the Director of Player Development do anyway? Play board games with the guys after practice, or host Texas Hold'em Tournaments?

Helps guys who are just coming out of college transition into a major lifestyle change. Even though being an NFL player has a lot of glamour associated, it is a huge change for most players, and a good director of player development certainly goes a long way towards keeping your younger players out of the headlines for the wrong reason. At least as I understand it.

edit. wrong wiki link
Meh, maybe he'll be great, maybe not. Will certainly get a fair chance here, and I think we have a pretty good core ST unit, so let's see what he can do.
