Currently OC of the Pack. 42 years old. Former OC of the Bills and the Jags. It's hard to say how much he's improved Rodgers, who's rolled over the years with different offensive coordinators. Hackett, though, has always designed offenses with strong running games. Plus it would nominally weaken a division rival by taking a key coach from them.

Son of legendary coach and coordinator Paul Hackett. If he learned from his dad, he's probably pretty good.

Hes definitely an interesting dude who decided he would rather coach than finish medical school.

He is smart, has had success, but can he lead the whole team?
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Caleb, and Hell followed with him.

Good question. I think I'd pass unless a strong GM came in first and selected him after due diligence.

I think they should take him, as long as their screens and finals pass muster....gotta be super smart and knows the Peckers inside out.

But then maybe I'm all wet.
