CHIP KELLY has many deserving lieutenants, but none deserves commendation like receivers coach Bob Bicknell.
If things go well in 2015, none will earn his money more than the man they call "Bick."
For the third consecutive season Bicknell is charged with reconstructing a receiving corps with essentially no predictable pieces.
No problem. The last two seasons the Eagles broke the team record for passing yardage, a feat that made Bick a candidate for the 49ers' offensive coordinator's job (a toxic post Bicknell declined).
Coaching is in Bick's blood.
"You just have to be ready to coach whoever shows up," said Jack Bicknell, Bob's father.
