[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 599999"] While Solari is primarily known as a zone blocking guy, he's also worked man blocking schemes. As far as his success in SF, it's worth noting he's been working with 3 first rounders. That said, there's a couple of things I'd be looking for: - The Packers ran some nifty pulling and trapping in the preseason against rusty vets and second stringers. It didn't look that hot early in the money games and they seemed to go away from it. The 49er's have showed outstanding execution in those blocking calls in recent years. Look for improvement there. - There's overlap with Fontenot coaching the TEs when it comes to the running game. While Solari didn't do much with Davis as a blocker, assuming he was given the chance, perhaps he can sharpen up Rodgers' and Quarless' work which has been spotty. - I'm reminded of Zook taking a job below his credentials. In retrospect, Slocum was on notice. Scratch that...not really in retrospect. No matter the business, when a seasoned "consultant" is brought in to assist, the assistee in under scrutiny. Now we see a guy in Solari with an impressive resume taking an assistant position coach job. Perhaps he likes the organization. Perhaps at 60 years old he's happy to wind down to an assistant position. Perhaps Campen should be looking over his shoulder. [/QUOTE]
