With all the talk of Packers coaches and personnel people possibly leaving the Packers, and today on the radio the hosts were speculating about the futures of Green and Moss, it got me thinking about Edgar Bennett. I've always been a fan of his; he played hard and was relatively effective for a guy without the greatest talent.
I'll put forth he did a great job as RBs coach. Guys like Jackson and Grant were fairly solid producers, and were similar to Edgar in that they aren't the most naturally talented guys to ever cradle a pigskin. I think Jackson's excellent blocking and effectiveness on screen passes can probably be attributed to his coaching. He was an excellent screen back and blocker himself. I don't think the backs have been as fundamentally sound this year now that Edgar is coaching the WRs. Especially in blitz pickup.
The WRs on the other hand, have been fantastic. Makes me wonder if Edgar has been important to the development of Nelson.
If the Packers lose Philbin and Clements, what might the future hold for Edgar Bennett in Green Bay? Is he an O-Coordinator candidate?
