What should the Los Angeles Rams keep in mind when hiring their next coach? NFL legend Ron Wolf weighs in with his first-person perspective in this series on finding a coach who best fits a franchise.
Wolf is a Hall of Fame personnel executive who was integral in building the Oakland and then Los Angeles Raiders from the mid-1960s through the 1980s (with some intermittent breaks), then served as the Green Bay Packers' general manager from 1991 to 2001. In between he was briefly general manager of the expansion Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he laid the foundation that would help them reach the NFC championship game in their fourth year of existence.
Among his many accomplishments, he hired Mike Holmgren as coach of the Packers and traded a first-round pick to Atlanta for a player who at the time had some health and character concerns, a young quarterback named Brett Favre.
