NFL coaches have to be able to watch film of games and understand what is happening. How is he going to prepare for opponents if he can't break down what is happening on game film?
Like you said, it isn't rocket science.
Being able to breakdown a players performance on film does not mean they know how well or if players can learn new plays. Chad Johnson was a great receiver for the Bengals and failed miserably with the Patriots in part because he couldn't learn the playbook. Film can't tell you how much work the players do in the film room, in meetings, in practice. Film doesn't tell you how a player deals with an injury. Film doesn't tell you about a player's attitude off the field.
Film breakdown is only a very small part in evaluating a player. Just look at the players he picked in the draft this year. Lat year due to the lateness of the coaching staff coming together, they missed out on the time needed to fully evaluate the 2018 roster prior to free agency and the draft. When you are trying to fill holes in training camp you are going to end up with a bunch of bad players
