Allen Park -- We're back with another Detroit Lions mailbag, and just like our last one, we've opted to answer more questions and break it into two parts. Here's part one.
What role did Bo Davis have with A’Shawn Robinson’s improvement and De’Shawn Hand’s ability to contribute as a rookie?
— @DaveReimink
Position coaches rarely get the credit they deserve for a player's improvement, but these assistants provide the most significant one-on-one tutoring, both on the practice field and in the classroom. And while it's impossible to estimate the impact Davis' previous working relationship with the former Alabama linemen played into the trust and buy-in Robinson and Hand had from the start, they were clearly schematic fits for what Matt Patricia wanted to run and Davis proved more than capable of teaching the desired techniques.
