It doesn't say anything about him as a coach.
He oughtta know something about the player he wants...
Upside i guess is where he got it wrong with Bodine. He does have weight room strength but that does not always translate.

Is that seriously your argument against PA. he was the reason the bengals wre the first team ever to trade up for a player who flopped?
what about the fact that there have been tons of first and second round pick offensive linemen who have flopped, but that has never once happend to PA. Do you give him any credit for that?
Nah, i was talking about on the Bengals. We don't trade up very often and for us to do so for PA's guy says somethin to me.
I do give him credit for that, Whitworth has been great, Smith and Zeit have definately not flopped.
Boling has actually done very well, i will give him some credit for coaching him up.
Bodine? Not so much.
