is this a serious question? bell sucks. any first, second, or 3rd round OT will be better. 

 

Yes it was a serious question...Why be an ass?  Want some pie?

 

I know Bell sucks, but he obviously has more experience.  Asking any rookie to come in a play LT is asking a lot.  Hopefully our coaching staff can get a rookie to play LT, but I'm trying to be realistic.

From what I have heard, his 2012 tape was great, thus his high status going into this past season.  But, his 2013 tape was not nearly as impressive.  Did he miss Warmack?  Are his knees getting worse?

 

You'd have to be very concerned just from the two tapes.

 

his tape was not that bad this year with maybe the exception of 2 games. 

 

he would still be considered a top pick had it not been for the knee concern, bowl game, and combine.

Exactly. Cyrus is not much of a pass protector right now, he is better than Bell because of his run blocking which doesnt do it enough for me. If we are gonna take a OT it should be Moses i think he could handle the LT duty better.

Count down to joat poo posting... Oh wait that's always? Oh ok continue on

Also if you are going to say his knee is no good and won't be in the league two years when the best doctor in the field says otherwise yes you are ignorant. And if you try to discredit that same doctor because of rg3 then yes you have flawed logic. I seriously don't understand why that's such a hard concept for you to grasp. If you want to talk about the kids actual skills as it pertains to him being a 1st pick we can have that discussion but if you simply say he's just another otah and his knee is no good which is all you've been saying I'll call you out on how dumb you are being.

Can Cyrus beat out Byron Bell for LT, or is he going to be better suited at RT?

Yea I think he projects as a LT. He is still raw and may have to play on the right side for a year. Not sure if he could beat Bell out his 1st year.

Although Notre Dame offensive tackle/guard Zack Martin is a popular choice for the Dolphins among those projecting the NFL draft, a source with knowledge of the situation tells the Palm Beach Post that Miami GM Dennis Hickey prefers Alabama offensive tackle Cyrus Kouandjio.

Hickey sees Martin as a guard and the Dolphins want to use the 19th overall pick for a right tackle, the source said.

 IMO we draft a OT in 1-2 round and he will get chance for the LT position in training camp & Pre-season.

 

Rookie OT Talent > Bell
