Daley starting at LT

If I remember correctly, we've only used a first round pick on a left tackle twice. Once was Gross with a top 10 pick, and the other was Blake Brockermeyer who was taken in the first round (I forget which pick but I never found him more than average).

The most successful LTs we've had outside of that would be Todd Steussie and Michael Oher, both free agents. Steussie was decent but not necessarily special and was nicknamed "first and 15" by his teammates for good reason. Oher was pretty good but didn't last long.

Gross was viewed strickly as a RT until his second contract on top of that.

Said it elsewhere, but I think seeing that it didn't take Matt Rhule the better part of a season to figure out that Greg Little wasn't getting it done is kind of encouraging to me.

Ron Rivera probably would have left him in there for the rest of the season and defended his performance.

Rhule came one year too late. I have no doubt we don’t draft Little last year if he’s here.

    • Daniel Jeremiah's top 50 players heading into the Combine.  Lol at the people still pining for Styles.  Dude will be LONG gone before our slot as I noted he would be.  Go ahead a keep drafting him at #19 if y'all want to keep ruining/making unrealistic mock drafts.   https://www.nfl.com/news/daniel-jeremiah-s-top-50-2026-nfl-draft-prospect-rankings-2-0
    • Kmet is better than just 'meh'.   Mayer took a back seat to Bowers and is another TE that would relish a chance to start again.  Sanders, Temble and Evans is a better group of TEs than we've fielded during the Ian Thomas era, but it's far from stacked.  That's the problem, our TE room has sucked for so long now that  being 'better than crap' is apparently good enough--which it is not.
    • Why? Feels like we got a whole TE crew of almost Kmets. Loveland surpassed Kmet easy and relegated Kmet to Tremble like stats. Kmet’s decent years were because of volume. Kmet had over 90 targets twice in his career. Tremble’s career high in targets is 37. Tremble could produce Kmet numbers with the same volume so why would you ever go for Kmet? Loveland or Bowers type studs, go for it. Meh TEs, we’ve got plenty.
