Amstel Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I know Marrone isn't going to fire his buddy Crossman but Bobby April Coached some great ST Units during his time here..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM57 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 The real question no one ever asks is how have his units ranked since he left here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amstel Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share Posted January 15, 2014 That's good question! I know where Crossmans ranked in 2012 though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 So if he didn't resign, how can we hire him?? He's under contract!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metzelaars_lives Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Yeah that sucks. I would love to take a look at Bobby April. It's too bad he chose not to resign and to remain with Oakland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 That's good question! I know where Crossmans ranked in 2012 though! Ahead of April, believe it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Well someone did ask last week, well more like told, (maybe it was you and you're just baiting us) and the answer wasn't very pretty. The real question no one ever asks is how have his units ranked since he left here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbillsfan Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 So if he didn't resign, how can we hire him?? He's under contract!! The Raiderz only sign asst. coaches for 1 year at a time. That's been a sticking point, although they did just give a 2yr contract to 1 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 But the title was he didn't resign, then he must still be coaching there! Ah forget it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trader Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 It appears that April is a free agent. He can sign with anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 http://www.footballo...tats/teamst2012 You can change the year if you really want to follow his career since leaving Buffalo in a huff because he wasn't considered for the HC job. His track record suggests that was a good move on the part of OBD. From his Wiki page: Pittsburgh Steelers (1994–1995) (Special teams coach) New Orleans Saints (1996–1999) (Special teams coach) St. Louis Rams (2001–2003) (Special teams coordinator) Buffalo Bills (2004–2009) (Assistant head coach/Special teams coordinator) Philadelphia Eagles (2010–2012) (Special teams coordinator) Oakland Raiders (2013–present) (Special teams coordinator) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Maybe it means that the quality of players that a coach has to work with makes a difference (contrary to what some believe about special teams) Or he was better before rule changes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
