Re: Zanepierre Benoit- La Ligue Est Le Mien
With the 2008 Draft approaching, ZPB has a lot of work to do.
A new coach means a new philosophy.
ZPB wanted total control over the hiring of the staff, which owner Don Bored granted.
Now, for the different positions:
QB- ZPB loves him some speed anywhere he can get it. QB is one of those positions where he wants guys that can run, whether it be to do option plays or designated QB runs...or to scramble away from incoming defenders.
HB- Balanced was the way to go here. Halfbacks must be able to run obviously, but also should be at least decent at catching and blocking. ZPB says he does not care whether his HB is a power back or scat back.
FB- Zane wants a ballcarrier here. Think about it: pistol and shotgun are the only formations in his offense.
WR- Even though he prefers fast receivers, Zane understands that catching over the middle is just as, if not more important, than catching bombs down the field. Because of that, he's looking for a balanced set of pass catchers.
TE- Playmakers at TE would be nice, athletic guys that can catch passes and cause mismatches.
OL- He wants each and every one of his offensive linemen to be good in both pass and run blocking. Athleticism would help too although it's not "required".
DL- Versatile, 3-4 capable d-linemen is what ZPB is looking for. The more athletic, the more useful.
LB- Interestingly enough, ZPB wants coverage-proficient linebackers. The 3-2-6 uses a MLB and ROLB and he wants both to be able to drop back as if they were still running defensive coordinator Joe Barry's Cover 2.
CB- His corners are going to be mostly in zone but he still wants corners capable of man or press coverage.
S- His SS will help in the run game a lot while his FS will generally stay back but he still wants both to be good at either coverage or run support.
K/P- Balanced. A mix of leg strength and ability to put balls right where they're wanted is what ZPB wants.
The defense will blitz often and the offense will be a "weird West Coast scheme" as Zane put it. Let's see how it goes.
