Didn't Oher do better at the right tackle?  If Williams can play the left and Oher plays well enough at right, that would seem to solve our problems, at least temporarily.

 

Of course, this could just be the coaches wanting to get more of the olinemen experienced at various positions in case of injury. 

I am not so sure Oher would beat out Remmers at RT. 

 

Remmers has looked really good in camp this year.

Whether or not Williams continues to see time at left tackle once starter Michael Oher and backup Nate Chandler are in pads again remains to be seen.

Would have liked to see him against the other DE's. It's so hard to gauge things at this point. Is Daryl Williams good? Is Kony Ealy horrible? Is the whole o-line good, and the d-line really good? Are they both bad?

Looking forward to preseason games, and coverage from practice with Miami. Things are difficult to judge in a vacuum.

I wasn't necessarily suggesting he would be the starter.  But if and when injuries occur, it would be nice to be able to play Oher at right tackle, since Remmer seems more adaptable and might be better able to fill in at other spots.

Ok, I am new at learning the game and Positions... what is the Main Differences between RT and LT? I mean they both block on the O Line depending on which side the block is coming from. I played Center in School.. I just know Center.

 

The times, they are a changin....

Back in the day, you wanted your nimble, quick T to play on the left side, and the road grater on the right.  It seems to me these days that it's not as important to build your line that way, but most would prefer the best pass blocker to take care of the QB's blind side.

the practice against Miami will tell a lot.  They have a very good DL.

I think you're struggling with the concept. What you have is some random list of tackles in the NFL. 

My statement was how many TOP-RATED tackles are over 320? My list was closer to the top of the talent at the tackle position. If it's just about listing tackles you might as well add Byron Bell who sits at 340lbs. 

Lol wtf? Andrew Whitworth, Trent Williams, and Jason Peters are the best left tackles in football.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
