But the process of hiring smart and creative people didn’t stop with Helfrich. One of the most under-the-radar signings was offensive line coach Harry Hiestand, whom people call the best in the business. What do Zack Martin, Nick Martin, Ronnie Stanley, Mike McGlinchey and Quenton Nelson have in common? They are all from Notre Dame. They have all been first- or second-round draft picks since 2014 and they are all projected to be starters in week one of the upcoming season. The fourth denominator? They have been coached by Harry Hiestand. Hiestand has coached the Notre Dame offensive line from 2012 to 2017 and has produced four first-round linemen. Usually, coaches can be happy to produce one in five years.
Hiestand has already coached in the NFL. He served as the offensive line coach for the Bears from 2005 to 2009 and for the Titans from 2010 to 2011. It’s a flawed approach, because we ignore the personnel, scheme and the quarterbacks, but let’s take a look at adjusted sack rates. In his seven NFL seasons, Hiestand’s offensive lines never ranked worse than 21 in adjusted sack rate and that was his first season. The following ranks were 6, 19, 11, 13, 9 and 10. That’s a pretty clear picture – we can only assume that he is going to have a positive impact on the Bears offensive line.
