Aside from the few genetic anomalies, what separates most of the players that continue on to long and productive careers (injuries notwithstanding) from the ones that flash and fall off, is coaching. Hopefully for our OL room, Frank Pollack is that Coach that makes the difference in players developing into talented, productive professionals, as opposed to falling off into obscurity.
I would add a "desire to get better" to this list as well. Some guys just don't have the competitive want and desire to get better and be the best.
Not sure where Michael Jordan ranks there, but it's been a problem with some of our offensive lineman in the past.
The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy
