People have to remember that any decision at LT will have a ripple affect at other spots.

If Erving can play LT decent you might end up with:  Erving(LT), Moton (RT), Brady (LG)

but if they decide they need Moton on LT maybe Brady ends us at RT and you end up with:

Moton (LT), Brady (RT), Elflein (LG)

I just think it’s refreshing that we know of, and can see a legitimate experiment that has a chance of working.  The last time something like this was done they went high school and had a DT convert to OL.  While I give them kudos for looking, that one was highly unlikely. This seems to have a legitimate chance at improving the overall line situation. 

Hahaha, that was a fiasco! An undrafted DT at that. A practice squad DT converted to starting RT for your #1 overall pick in the draft QB? What could possibly go wrong?!

I am really starting to hope so... I do not know why--prolly his workout numbers--but I want Christensen in the lineup.

I do too if he is the best guy we have at that position but we have all seen workout warriors who struggled to play as well as they train. Hopefully he is the real deal and immediately can contribute wherever he is needed. We have struggled to keep our lines healthy for some reason.

You think they both are equal to both sides?

Nothing has happened or anything. I just have it in my head, going into this season, that these two are our best outside lineman. I believe Moton can work on either side. Its more about believing in Moton + veterans. No disrespect to the rookie but he was in a poor conference not going up against elite defenses and got drafted at 24 and will be 25 years old at the start of the season. Those extra years he had on other college kids absolutely makes a difference.

Didn't we move Bell to L because he was left handed?  That failed.

I think you are correct. I forgot about that one.  The Bell experiment was a bad one.  In his defense, he was an UDFA and should not have been in that position. Organizational failure 

Chandler, Bell and Amini all at the same time. 4 man rushes looked like jailhouse blitzes on the regular.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
