As much as I was let down by the McCardell hire I guess we will be alright. The Skins have atleast 3 coach's that used to be WR coach's in the past.

Kyle Shanahan: In 2006, Shanahan was hired by Gary Kubiak to serve as wide receivers coach for the Houston Texans.

Matt Lafleur: LaFleur worked with the wide receivers in his first season in Houston. That year, Andre Johnson led the NFL with 115 catches and 1,575 receiving yards. In addition, fellow receiver Kevin Walter chipped in 60 catches for 899 yards and eight touchdowns.

Jon Embree: Prior to his stint in Kansas City, Embree served as the assistant head coach/tight ends (2004-2005) and assistant head coach/wide receivers (2003) at UCLA.

Sean McVay: During his time in Tampa Bay, McVay worked closely with wide receiver Antonio Bryant, who recorded career-highs in receptions (83), receiving yards (1,248) and touchdowns (7) en route to winning The Sporting News Comeback Player of the Year Award.
The Tuskers finished a perfect 6-0 before losing in the UFL’s inaugural championship game. He worked as the Tuskers quality control/wide receivers coach last season after working with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an offensive assistant in 2008.

I guess they have enough people to help McCardell with the WR's if needed. Plenty of coach's with expierence actually coaching WR's and with proven track records. So I guess McCardell is the Rookie coach in training.
