This is bad IMO.  His talent level is still below average.  He's got literally everything you want except talent.  Sometimes the off-field and intangible stuff are overrated.  It seems like a forest for trees thing with the staff.  He's really great at every aspect of being a pro football player without actually being good at football.  

It's also been mentioned that Pollack wasn't a teacher of technique, but more of a schemes coach, while Peters is definitely more of teacher of technique as it applies to hand placement, footwork, movement and leverages. A scheme guy will draw it up and tell you "You are supposed to be here on this play, blocking that guy", while a technique guy will not only point out the man who is your target and show you how to remove him from the play using steps A,B and C. So maybe there is a little hope for the fair to middling guys on the OL roster to take a step forward. Not counting on miracles, just hoping for a little development.
