I would love to have Brady C on the right, and Moton on the left that way we are set for the next 4 years at tackle and we have 4 really good young candidates at G on cheap deals.

Realistically I think we go into the year with Erving at LT, unknown at LG (hopefully one of the rookies), Paradis at C, John Miller at RG and Moton at RT.

Until we see them in pads, no one can tell just yet. I hope one of the rookies starts at Guard but only time will tell. 

Thats true, but we have seen Little and Scott in pads plenty, and its awful. There is also a lot of film on Erving at LT, and it is pretty bad too.

It’s sad that last year out expectations were so incredibly low that we all rejoiced when Scott performed at a level where Teddy didn’t get smashed play after play. He wasn’t good as a LT, but played well enough to allow about 3-4 seconds some time. I believe Scott is a good versatile backup but he’s definitely not starting LT material.

week 1: Erving, Christensen, Paradis, Miller, Moton

 

My fondest wish: Moton, Elflein, Paradis, Miller, Christensen. having bookend tackles locked down for years to come is a fantasy I almost dare not dream.

My projected starting OL: Erving, Daley, Paradis, Miller and Moton. 

I don’t think our future LT is on the roster yet. It appears Christensen is being groomed to take over one of the G spots at some point.

Erving-Elflein-Paradis-Miller-Moton

Scott-Daley-Moore-Brown-Christensen as the back-ups

Deuces to Greg Little unless he somehow "gets it" but seeing how that the mental part of the game has seemed to be a consistent issue for him, I doubt it.

Will be interesting to see if folks will blame Darnold for having a below average OL like they did his predecessor. 👀

I have a feeling we're going to see a huge number of different starting combinations this season. That usually happens when you don't have a guaranteed set of bookend tackles. LT continues to be a massive need for this team ever since Jordan Gross retired.

      This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
