hoping this cat can help fix our biggest weakness. sounds like he could be a solid hire but im sure others will see it very differently
Well worth a read. Another smart, high character, hard working, football loving talent evaluator.

I might be most excited about this hire. His background is lunchpail work hard guy. He knows OL and TE.
This might be the diamond in our sh-storm?

Does anyone know if he runs a zone, gap or power blocking scheme?
Considering Gannon's ethos I'm going to guess "What best suits the players we have"
That's better than forcing them into a scheme
Then you have to sign an FA and draft accordingly and may end up with a bag of mixed players

Honestly don’t know anything about this guy but trusting Gannon.
I was hoping they keep Steve Heiden as TE/Asst OL Coach too. He was one of the few on Hard Knocks actually coaching and teaching. Considering he had OL Coach shoved on him, the state of the OL with injuries and a rookie TE, I thought he did well. McBride improved dramatically over the course of the year.

I think Heiden went to Lions already. One if the first to move on.

From an article in the athletic...here is an excerpt.
Chris Strausser had wanted to hire Adams during his two seasons as the offensive line coach of the Denver Broncos, but it didn’t work out. When he had a chance to bring him to Indianapolis as an assistant offensive line coach for the Colts, even though Adams had just accepted a job at Wyoming less than a month earlier, he didn’t hesitate. Having coached Adams at Boise State, Strausser knew exactly what Adams would bring.
“For me to have a guy here, helping coach the offensive line, that knew me and knew my style and knew what I was going to coach, was important to me,” Strausser said. “The other part that was good is I’m a fairly serious guy by nature, and he has an unbelievable sense of humor. He’s maybe the funniest guy that I know.”
Over two years, Adams worked with the Colts’ offensive line. During offseason workouts, he assisted Strausser with drills. During the season, he dissected opposing defenses — “There were many days when I was like, ‘Man, I don’t know how you saw that,'” Strausser said — and assisted with game-day adjustments.
Adams also assisted with free agency and draft prep, studying prospects.
“He was for sure the No. 1 person I would go to and say, ‘What do you think about this guy?'” Strausser said. “He’s a really good talent evaluator. He certainly could see the skill set that a guy had but also kind of dive deeper into figuring out if this guy is right for us, if he’s a good fit.”

Arizona State's new offensive line coach: Who is Klayton Adams?
As a player and a coach, Klayton Adams has had to work for everything. That grinding mentality has taken the O-line coach to Arizona State.

Chris Stausser is a Howard Mudd approved guy. He has done pretty good work in Indy and is well respected as a teacher. Just to give some context to this.

I'm guessing we might be drafting some offensive lineman given this guy's 'teaching' history. That would be change.

Hopefully. Getting position coaches who can make complex concepts simple is so valuable.I'm guessing we might be drafting some offensive lineman given this guy's 'teaching' history. That would be change.

Definitely a valued skill as long as the GM uses it.

One thing we see coming to surface is Monti's dedication and respect to the offensive line. Both he and his assistant GM are all about evaluating and drafting O-line, now we have another new edition specializing in the same who will actually be out on the field. Do we know if this was a Monti hire or a Gannon hire??? Either way thank you sweet baby Jesus

Yes, this team has never had an offensive line coach before. Revolutionary. LOL.

What's the best we've ever ranked on O-line (full season) since the move to Arizona?

Yes, but perhaps more important, get our two picks from last season in a position to contribute.

If you're doing 'ever', you'd have to go back to the CARDS in ST-Louis in the mid-70s, when they were arguably #1.
