I like it. He’s one of our all time great O-Lineman who helped us win a Superbowl.

It kind of feels like Ted Lasso hiring Roy Kent. Lol

This is a stupid post. Strief earned his way up and will be looking to be an OC one day. Very smart guy.

Great for Jahri and glad he’s back, but he has a lot of development before he’s at that level

He's one of the most technically-sound guards the Saints have ever had. If he can transfer at least a portion of his knowledge to those guys they will be much better than last season.

Why? Because he was a better player? If anything history has shown lesser players have to hone their technique and drive become better coaches.

Jahri Evans isn't a smart guy?? Lol Evans has always struck me as a smart guy and it's not just because of the bi-focal look he has always had. Lol But people need to research first before they comment on people. Evans is basically doing the same thing that Strief is doing, and I'm sure he will make an excellent coach himself. He's been working with Cesar Ruiz personally and is responsible for his sudden improvement. This article here should clear up any doubts about Evans. LINK

I didn’t say he wasn’t a smart guy, did I? I said he doesn’t have experience.

Show me where the fanbase was clamoring for the team to hire Jahri. I'll hang up and listen.

Evans as an offensive line assistant under offensive line coach Doug Marrone. Evans served as an intern for the Saints last preseason and worked closely with G Cesar Ruiz.

Jahri Evans was a fourth-round pick by the Saints in the 2006 NFL Draft out of Bloomsburg University in Pennsylvania. His offensive coordinator for his first two years was Doug Marrone.


Hope it works out for him and us. Player/coaches start small but you never know where they will end up or how high they can go. I imagine he and Marrone must work well together.
