Zavala

Solid 2 first outings. Seems legit. 

Thoughts?

[Smithers]

Yeah h needs to be our starting RG until Corbett is ready.

He did great considering he sat out most of camp.

Wonder if they'd look at moving Zavala back to his college position on the left once Corbett is healthy

Think he would win that over Brady?

Christensen has long struck me as an ideal utility backup.

Same here. Was also thinking that for Cade Mayes, though I'm not all that confident in that happening right now.

hope he can take that LG spot and Brady becomes the permanent swing tackle

Yeah I have had high hopes for Mays and Brady.  Mays seems to have hit a bit of a wall.

Re: the OP, Zavala doing well will help everyone.  He looks comfortable and he has experience with Ekwonu which is big. 

Once Corbett comes back, we could be in a lot better shape than people have been thinking.  Icky is going through what seem like some mental errors here and there, but his skills are otherwise awesome.

I can see a roller coaster of perception happening on our OL this season.  Guys like Mays, Jordan, & McCray have all looked just downright bad in preseason, but focusing on our starters---they could still easily come around and perform at an end-of-22' level.

Bozeman & Moton are dogs.  I still have confidence in Icky.  It's Brady and Chandler who are the two with shoes to fill.

I do miss hitting on late round guards I’d love to have that feeling back

And quite athletic for some red zone extra lineman trickery 

[csx]

He's got  ideal size and seems extremely intelligent. Pretty much ideal mid round selection

Late pick on OL seems to always pay dividends. I was excited about the pick when I saw how excited Campen was when we made it.

Is Brady healthy?  Healthy enough to start week 1?
