Moton vs Williams

Sorry if this has already been discussed... but did anyone find it interesting that Daryl Williams started at RT for the official dress rehearsal?  I couldn't watch the entire game, but I remember seeing Moton playing well into the 4th quarter, and maybe to 0:00.  I thought Moton was impressing at camp?  If Moton were going to surpass Williams, wouldn't Rivera have started him last night, considering it's Preseason Game #3?

Thoughts?

I think Moton is better than Williams, but that Williams provides good depth.  That 1st drive was beautiful.

Williams is the veteran in comparison . Unless he's shitting the bed consistently in pre season and practice, he'll probably be the starter at least to start the season based on previous nfl experience alone. 

Yeah it's nothing against Moton, and from all accounts he is the future, but there's a vet who's been in the system for 3 years ahead of him. Plus Moton seems to be learning every single position on the line minus center. As long as Williams is serviceable there's no need to shake everything up.

You think Ron is going to play the rookie who is better over the veteran that he "trusts"?

It may sound dumb, but he might--particularly on the line.  The better question is, which player makes us a better team?  I think Moton is better than Williams, but right now the team may be better with Williams starting than Moton, maybe for no other reason than he knows the playbook better and Turner/Olsen are more instinctive with Williams than they are with Moton.

Give it time, he'll be there at some point.

It's nice to have 3 competent OTs.. if Amini can keep progressing - dare I say 4?

I forgot what it's like to have more than one competent OT on the team after Remmers, Bell, Chandler and friends. As long as they don't helplessly piss and poo themselves at the face of an edge rush then this team will be going places.

    • The right answer is neither and drafting Maye with the #1 Pick of the 2024 Draft lmfao we traded away the #1 in a QB LOADED DRAFT
    • I have no idea why you are so irrationally upset about the notion that going out and spending $150 million free agency dollars on two interior offensive linemen could be construed as a panic response after our #1 pick we traded a fortune for had one of the worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years. It is objectively what transpired. Dan Morgan as of right now is a mixed bag. Some really good some so so some not so good some bad some really bad. You take any rational criticism personally like you are related to him or something. That's something you'll have to figure out for yourself. Anyways. The predicament Dan Morgan finds himself in for this year will define his future as GM. I sincerely hope he navigates it to perfection. But the circumstances are largely of his own creation. And not just in his stint as GM but going back to his time as assistant GM. Which conveniently people like yourself don't like to talk about. That is the reality of the situation. I like how you will carry water for Dan Morgan to the point of getting into random spats with people but make no mention of Bryce Young's glaring limitations and shortcomings as a starting QB yet go out of your way to put the onus of our struggles squarely on Canales. I mean I've been quite critical of Canales too but he sure isn't the only one to blame for our problems.
    • They weren't well thought out. We needed one, not both. 2 top center/guard candidates were going to be available in the 2nd. We would have been fine with JPJ or Frazier. Drafting either over XL or Brooks would have made perfect sense. Hell, drafting both would have made sense even if we had signed Lewis or Hunt. Instead we drafted a 1 year wonder project WR and a luxury RB that we didn't need since we had Hubbard. Draft IOL, pay tackles. Plenty of 2nd round guards and centers start immediately and play very well. Those 2 picks were not good then, now, no matter how much explaining anyone tries to do. Several of called it then.
