Polling 2018 draft prospects: Which NFL coach do you prefer?

We polled 20 prospects from the 2018 NFL Draft class last month at the Reese's Senior Bowl on various football-related questions that, collectively, provide some insight into how the NFL's incoming talent views the game's teams, coaches and players. This week, we'll publish the poll results. Today's poll question:

Which NFL coach would you most like to play for?

Perhaps it's his five Super Bowl rings as a head coach, or the unreal consistency with which the New England Patriots win year after year. Or maybe it's his -- ahem -- always-entertaining rapport with the media. Whatever the case, Bill Belichick was the choice of the prospects polled. While he hasn't coached an NFL game in 10 years -- before Senior Bowl players were even in high school -- Jon Gruden finished tied for second, along with Sean Payton and Mike Tomlin. Being a popular TV personality, clearly, has its advantages.

Full poll results (votes):

Bill Belichick, Patriots (4)

Jon Gruden, Raiders (3)

Sean Payton, Saints (3)

Mike Tomlin, Steelers (3)

Pete Carroll, Seahawks (2)

Dan Quinn, Falcons (2)
