So the guy that is best regarded for playing right tackle is playing left tackle and the guy that is best regarded for playing left tackle is playing right tackle?

Must be Opposites Day.

Christensen is best regarded for playing LT? I know that was his position in college but pretty sure most would agree he's better suited at RT or guard in the NFL.

I agree on RT…but guard…meh. Maybe if his short arms are an issue but he’s athletic. Corse all we really have is college film vs poo teams to go by. But BYU oline program is top of the line.

Well this is about what I expected. He’s showing some flashes, but overall not playing great. Which is fine, he’s a rookie playing the opposite side from college. The coaches aren’t stupid not playing him all season, he just isn’t ready yet. Good news is the game time should get him ready faster than practice… as long as it doesn’t cost us a Sam injury.

Christensen just isn't physically strong enough. He needs to live in the weight room this off-season. He's gotta get stronger if he's going to make an impact on the field.

Sweat is just pushing him back every play.  No fancy moves just over powering him.   I doubt he is going to get stronger the dude is pushing 30

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious.

      We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
