I know it's probably too early to tell, but as we move into minicamp, training camp, preseason and then the season, I thought it'd be good to discuss and gage people's sentiment on who's going to win the starting jobs at LG and RT.

You could take it as who is going to take 1st string reps going into TC or as who will end up winning the job come the season, either way.

Also, I'm assuming here that Gross, Kalil and Hangartner will be our starting LT, C and RG, respectively. Is that safe to assume?

My money's on Silatolu and Otah, personally.

29 votes for Silatolu and none for Pollak?!

Just to play devil's advocate, Pollak was a part of some very successful offensive lines in Indy. Plus one of the knocks on Silatolu was that his bad grades kept him out of D1 and in Midwestern State. Can someone who struggled academically in college pick up the Chud's playbook that everyone is saying is very complex and going to change every week?

I think Amini will be great, but I wouldn't be surprised if the vet gets the start.

    • Anybody got a clue what this is supposed to mean? 🤔
    • I figured as much. Hopefully he's just resting up and will be ready for round 3 (if we make it that far.)  Sucks to see. Hes been our best defender (besides Slavin) in the playoffs so far.
    • I've never bought into the idea. There's just too much at stake, even for front office people. Jobs are lost, trust is lessened, lives are altered, reputations are damaged and more. Throw in that the average front office person isn't as young as the average player. They may not have ten years ahead of them to salvage their careers. Any given year could be their last. The only person not guaranteed to suffer some direct form of consequence from losing is the owner, and even there you still have problems (fan reaction, team reputation, revenue, etc). You've also got massive egos in play on that front so it can get personal. Mind you, I do accept that there are "fire sales" in order to build for the future, but even those have consequences. They don't exactly guarantee success either. Poorly run teams often just wind up in the same circumstance a few years down the road. Sorry gus, but my tinfoil hat just hasn't fit me for quite a while.
