they arent finished products but i doubt we will see enough evidence with those three for us to give the coaches credit. Watkins has never been anytbing special. A decent wr at best. If i see improvement from duvernay and boykin than by all means they deserve the credit but what im saying i doubt we will see it with watkina, bateman and hollywood.
my point with watkins is that we've already seen one of our coaches change and improve watkins game...
and just because hollywood and bateman are good, doesn't mean they're perfect receivers who've perfected their craft - we give joe d'allesandris credit not just for making random scrubs effective on the interior OL but also for helping develop orlando into a really good player and ronnie stanley into an all-pro...
i just think it's ridiculous to assume that good players are good because they're good and that it has nothing at all to do with coaching...
we've had guys we liked as receivers in the building before who've done absolutely nothing - and lots of us have been absolutely livid about the WR coach in those instances - would be wild to not give the new guys credit if we start pumping out some successful receivers...
you're talking about bateman as if he's already some sort of all-pro/future HoFer before he's even stepped into rookie minicamp let alone actually played a professional snap
the other thing is, that with bateman it should be pretty obvious whether there's been coaching - there's bits of his release that need revamping, and we'll probably be able to see in the details of his routes etc...
how these guys release in 2021 will probably tell us a lot about how well they've been coached
