Glad we got a quality coach for in my mind our weakest position group. We need talent and coaching to develop that talent!. Big positive.

Re: Mike Nolan Hired as LB Coach!

Didn't we try and bring him on board before? Seems like around the time we either hired, or fired Spags, that his name was mentioned.

We are getting a new special teams coach so that shouldn't be a problem.

I'd like to see what he can do with Anthony, Ellerbe and Foster.

Re: Mike Nolan Hired as LB Coach!

Which begs the question....
will we be targeting a LB in round 1, or will we wait to see what he can do with what we have?
