Nate Chandler Future Left Tackle?

[IGSaint]

Maybe Chandler at LT and the big Canadian at Right? Still a long way to go until spots are settled and we'll see what the coaches think is the best combo from all of our tackles.

 

I doubt the canadian is an option at OT this season. Most people have said he is still pretty raw. Maybe next season more likely.

I didn't read all posts, but FWIW, Chandler's arms are 33 3/4--decent length, but nothing spectacular.  Chandler is going to win battles with his feet and brain.

He has a 1000% better attitude in his media quotes than Bell.

 

this reminded me..  somehow caught Hurney on the radio yesterday and he was speaking on Bell..   basically was talking about how Bell needs to learn he has the ability to succeed and has a tendency to be a perfectionist which affects him when things go bad.  Also mentioned how the death of his brother had an affect on this outlook.  That he tends to blame himself and questions whether he deserves success when things go bad.

No kidding.

I have heard that Bell is trying to lose weight. If so, maybe that will help as well. I mean, if LT is his best position. We pretty much need to go in that direction. As long as he can beat out Chandler.

I know we want the best guy at LT. Cam's blind side is mucho importante. Part of me wants Bell to win, but Chandler is an intriguing candidate. So I kinda want him over there. I would prefer Chandler and his athleticism on the left side, and Bell just doesn't show that.

But that just puts Bell back at RT. Damm, I am just confusing myself now.

 

I am getting dizzy.  This is exactly how I feel.  I am all for giving Bell the shot on the left and see if being left handed pays off.  However, I am not too excited about him going back to the right.   Chandler seems like he could really take the LT spot.  We have other tackles on this team?  Any of them take RT and let Bell be Chandlers back-up?

It still seems like from a skill set standpoint that chandler is a LT and bell is a RT. but whoever wins wins

Yup, I wish there was a way that if Bell doesn't win the LT spot, he winds up being depth.

I just don't see that happening. He will be on the line somewhere. And to be honest, that does kinda scare me. Just a little, but still.

I don't care who it is, sounds like chandler has the edge rn imo, but whoever it is I just hope cam isn't left on his back every 5 plays

Wow.

I think that's a little too personal to be saying on the radio. We know the story already but damn

This strikes fear in our opponents hearts.

As of right now, Byron Bell is the coaching staff's favorite to be our LT.  I fear it doesn't matter how well Nate plays in the pre-season, Bell is probably going to be our starter for at least 4 weeks into the regular season no matter what. (It took an injury to Beason before the coaching staff finally placed Kuechly as our starting inside linebacker)
