So, is Moton LT now?

Don’t really see what else we would do. He looked great there in his brief time and seems to fit there better than Williams would, and Williams was elite on the right side in 2017. Either way it’s 100% clear that Kalil won’t be starting. He may still be kept because we don’t save much to cut him and he’s not bad depth, although I’d prefer we just cut ties now and move on.

 

OL is looking like a serious position of strength now:

LT Moton

LG Van Roten/Larsen/Mahon

C Paradis

RG Turner

RT Williams

 

LG is the only weak link and even those three aren’t terrible, closer to average. Has Cam had a better OL on paper heading into a season ever? If his shoulder holds up the potential of this offense is unbelievable.

Yes. Even Ron isn't that dumb. It takes him a while to insert the rookie, but Moton proved to be much better than speed bump even in only his 3 or so weeks of preseason/regular season at LT. It wasn't close.

I am just waiting for the hammer to drop on Kalil so we can move on and draft at least one tackle for depth and maybe 2.

When is that deadline on Kalil? Isn't it today?

I don't know, those three look pretty terrible. Van Roten was about as bad as Clark was the 2nd half of the season and hope he is not starting there next season.

Yes

He has the measurables and athletic ability.

He has played there and started (limited time but some) and looked good there.

Time to just start grooking him there 

 

RTs are easier to replace. 

Take the bird in hand who showed promise and groom him vs some unknown college guy.  Then find your RT in next years draft as its easier to find RTs

Yeah that's what I was wondering if it was tomorrow or friday. If not he will be on the team this year and that sucks 

You already know that MK will start and until he gets injured nobody will take his place if he isn't gone and is staying with us. RR seriously needs to take a hard look and hopefully sees this as a disaster if he puts MK in.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
