Per J.Person. Rivera claims they looked outside the organization for a left tackle but couldn't find one that fits what they do. I have no idea what that means or what exactly they do, besides getting the QB smashed. Don't tell me there isn't one guy out there that "can't do what they do". Just a ludicrous statement. Also said that Amini would have played left tackle if healthy.....oh boy.

"couldn't find a Tackle that was good enough to play that wouldn't hurt the cap next season"

 

Not only that but there just aren't teams lining up to trade their starting tackles, and there aren't any teams with backups that should be starters. Tackles aren't a dime a dozen in this league. We really had no options other than the guys we have.

There isn't a guy out there we could've easily gotten, and have it being worth it, that's any better than Bell.

Running backs are a dime a dozen, and that's where our money is tied up.

Oh the irony.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.

      At least we have Mike Kay and his little buddy sidekick whoever to put you to sleep when suffering from insomnia. They're all useless unfortunately.
