Appears that B.Bell may be watching from bench if things don't improve

Everything I have been reading so far suggests that G.Williams is getting a good look at LT.Seems that Chandler is on the right side I guess and doing okay(at least his name isn't being mentioned)....last we heard was that Bell and Chandler where splitting time on the left side. So Williams is now getting the shot because Bell is showing poorly through OTA's and now mini camp.Maybe now RR is finally realising that he is not starting material. Bell is a nice guy it seems but he better get used to a back up roll....seems that's the way it's going.

I can guarantee y'all that he starts if not LT, RT. So people might as well get use to it for at least this season if not more.

This is just as speculative as the OP. Both of you are guessing. But hey, what else is there when the team is so tightlipped.

I don't expect Rivera, or Gman to give us a heads up on what they are thinking/planning. So you guys are as close as we are going to get until the season starts and we find out for ourselves.

They aren't even in Spartanburg yet.  It's way too early to start guessing the depth chart based on reps.

it's a shame that we are going to have to wait until spartanburg to see who wins out. that, in my book, is a fail.

 

we should be going into TC knowing who the starting OL is so they can be getting their reps and hit the ground running as a unit.

 

TC needs to be all about the OL gelling, not try outs to see who is going to be on it.

    • Poster board? Were you trying to use the term poster child?
    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive short or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads, be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
