No, it's the players. Position coaches can only do so much in practice. In games it is up to the player.

If I were to estimate, I'd say 50% up to the player, 45% up to the OC to utilize the player correctly, and maybe 5% position coach to train him up. A position coach can upgrade a player with a B grade to B+/A- at most. But he can't turn a D into a B.  

So how in the world do teams like Seattle turn late round picks or UDFA's into quality starters if coaches don't matter that much? This is insane.

can Mosleyx please get his ish together and heal up to not ruin the comp pick we all expect.

dammit.

I know playing time plays some part in the formula, but I thought the large majority was comprised of salary? In which case, even if he plays only half the season I think we're okay.

Someone on twitter noticed that he needs to play. I also thought that playing time and production was a small part of the formular as that is something which is difficult to put a value on in the contract phase. I can't understand how what happens after a player left for a large contract has something to do with the compensation, as the compensation basically relates to players leaving because teams doesn't want to/can't match what the player got for leaving.
