Amini to LT ?

He was a tackle in college and definitely has the athleticism to play LT. I don't think it'll necessarily happen but it gives us flexibility to take BPA linemen in the draft.  We can take an extra guard or two and possibly kick amini out to tackle.

You guys are talking crazy! You know good and well that we'll draft our starting LT in the 3rd round from some obscure Div 2 team, because the kid has "good footwork, and is a hog Molly"

We've all seen this movie before, let's not act all brand new about it

He'd be better than bell, but not something you'd want to happen. Amini is built to be a guard, he's physical at the attack and his power comes off the snap.

The LT position needs to have finesse, and ability to pass block effectively and adjust. Amini is a run blocker.

    • Right and I think we can have a conversation about that. But even with the scheme he should still be able to muster more than 1.5 sacks right? I mean DJ Johnson played in Evero's scheme too but that didn't stop us from calling him a bust. Scourton didn't seem to have trouble flashing. There can be different things true at one time.
    • I assume you are quoting my still. If so, I don't know what your argument is since mine was simply showing a play where Bryce scored a TD against the Rams in the playoffs where another poster used a similar still of Herbert's line to defend his poor performance last night. Like I said, Herbert is a better QB but Bryce wins the game last night for the Chargers. It simply is something he does better than Herbert and would play to his strengths. Someone even said earlier Chargers only win 1 or 2 games this year if Bryce was their QB which is so absurdly laughable it wasn't even worth trying to address. I mean this thread is literally called "Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panther's History" so I understand there is no objective arguments to be had here but I found that amusing. 
    • I think his knee would make a good reason to switch to guard IF he returns.  Half don't.  Half of those don't last too long.  The strain on a knee (320lb man) vs speed rushers is more substantial.  So I would keep him if I could on a small contract (he will make $17.5 in 2026 fully guaranteed) and think of him as a possible guard for the post Lewis/Hunt era.  Knee injuries in big men are not invitations to invest in them.
