Re-examining the Johnathan Sullivan pick

rlemieux said

Haslett's coaching staff had a severe inability to develop players. I have made several posts about this in the past, but I will revisit it one more time. It just seemed like no matter who we picked they ended up busting in some way. [...]

I still attest that no matter who we would have drafted they would have not had the sucess we expected because of Haslett and his coaching staff's inability to coach players up.

So who coached Michael Lewis up? He was so bad as returner that he even lost his job as a returner for Rhein Fire when the Saints sent him to the NFLE. Who coached Jake Delhomme up? Who coached Stinchcomb up? Payton when Stinchcomb couldnt even practice? It was the old staff of course. The same staff that believed in Stinch as a RT when people here said he was a bust or a G at best...

And if the coaches were there problem (because they couldn't teach) and not the players then why didnt anyone else coach them up? Why has nobody been able to coach up Sullivan? Or Watson? Or Kenny Smith? Or Hodge? Isn't it obvious that no coach could coach them up and that not the coaches but the players were the problem?
