How much trust do you have in Gettleman/Rivera in Offensive Tackle evaluation?

Just curious. 

 

Obviously last year's starting tackles were very bad. Foucault was even worse. 

 

They did manage to find a decent player in Remmers, but he only saw playing time due to injury. 

 

 

So... moving forward to 2015... how much trust do you have in their ability to evaluate tackles?

I think Oline talent is what Rivera knows the least about.  He's shown time and time again that he doesn't know to place the best players out there.

 

We seemed to have no choice in playing Bell, but goddamn, Chandler, Silatolu, and Kugbila are all linked to him.

I think last year was a result of dealing with the Hurney cap situation and the OTs were more a product of the cap than Gettleman and Rivera truly believing they were the solution. So the jury is still out in my opinion.

^^^ this

 

if we can't re-sign our own guys, how can we bring in decent L/R Tackles? Plus in the draft, the L/R Tackles went early.

 

btw where did some of those top tackle draft picks end up playing? at guard, so yeah I trust Gettleman's Tackle evals

 

We had a quart worth of roster holes, and only a pint worth of available solutions. Pint can't hold a quart, but the pint does the best it can

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
