The off-season coaching staff adjustments are still well underway, but the Redskins did hire a Joe Barry as a Defensive Coordinator and Perry Fewell as the Defensive Backs coach. More changes are coming.
If you "Google" either hire, you will see countless stories about these two hires. I think they both show one thing....this front office and Coach Gruden are looking for the "right guys" and not just the big names. Sure, Fangio was the hot defensive coordinator available...and they did take a run at him, but in the end, I felt like Barry was a "Gruden'esque" coach with a chip and a lot to prove. Fewell worked wonders with a thin secondary in New York, often decimated by injuries. Both have a great opportunity to use this team as a spring-board to bigger things.
So, as opposed to hurling tons of statistics and micro-analyzed information about these hires, I will just say, from what I have read and seen from both of these hires, I would not be surprised if both of these guys find success here with our Redskins.
Hail to the Redskins!
