Were going to see some fluff article soon about how are new offensive line coach can fix our guard problem when it's really more about terrible drafting and I kind of feel the same way on defense. They could literally just rewrite the same article they did for Jim Turner and Frank Pollack and just change the name. One player I do believe can benefit from a new scheme is Cam -Britt Taylor. There were so many plays last season were everyone was in the same defense and he was doing something completely different.
I wouldn't be too quick to dismiss what new coaching can bring to the table. Cody Ford has always been a so-so 3rd string player, so to speak. Last year he stepped up playing several line positions and was flat out solid. That's got to be coaching. Volson (yes I know everyone wants an upgrade, including me) has the strength and talent to be a starting guard if he learns to pick up stunts, etc. A new coach can (and I say can, not will) fix that. You never know, a new coach with a different view on techinique could fix some guys.
