They said it was more about the scouts than the position coaches so I feel really good about the pick now. Will McClay knows best.After the Trysten Hill and Taco picks, I dont want position coaches picking players.
I don't believe this. Broadus has been trying to drum up a story line about dissension between Philbin and the scouts for a long time now. This is his latest effort. Before this, he was going on about McGovern being a guy the scouts really liked but that Philbin has no use for. Not sure why he's working this angle so hard. Maybe he has friends in the scouting department with a hate on for Philbin.
I mean he has no reason to lie
your theory is outlandish than his
This sounds like drama by broaddus. I don't buy it either.I don't believe this. Broadus has been trying to drum up a story line about dissension between Philbin and the scouts for a long time now.

Exactly. All 32 teams are run that basic way I would imagine.Offensive line coaches are not "overruled" on draft picks.
They can provide an opinion and it is likely considered, but there is no weight, power or decision behind it to be overruled or enforced.
The decision makers are at the top, which does not include position coaches.
Agree. I'm glad Mm and others did what they did.Considering Philbin has done nothing but make the OL worse since he got here, good.
To be fair though, I'm shaky on the Smith pick too. Not that he isn't a good prospect, but because I felt Linderbaum would be the immediate impact player.
Exactly! The title is such BS!Offensive line coaches are not "overruled" on draft picks.
