Likewise - I don't expect Oliver to be Ertz, but I expect the staff to determine what he does well within (or similar to) that framework and employ it. 

Just because Foles and Flip came from a program together and they know what Foles does well within the system doesn't mean they are going to Xerox Frank Reich's playbook and shove every Jaguar player into bad fits. 

If they do that, then DeFilippo was a bad hire.

Thats what I'm saying, Chark in the Jeffrey role isn't something that realistically is going to happen as he's just not that type of player. It'd be like saying Fournette is going to play the Sproles role.

Yeah.  You've got your mind made up on a 22 year old kid who's seen 30 NFL footballs thrown his way. 

I think it's unwise to assume you have his career path so well sorted out right now. 

I'm gonna give him a chance to make some play first. The Coughlin Q&A tweet is dated 6 weeks ago and we don't know the context. I'd not read so far into it to assume DeFilippo is going to poorly utilize Chark's skillset.
