    If Moore is watching the draft, he has probably already started to pack his bags.

    Jones should be the LT and Fautanu the RT.

    I didn't think he'd have much chance to get to 84 myself. Still, Hicks and Bullock are still hangin in.

    Interesting....Steelers centers that were excellent amateur wrestlers: Dermonti Dawson, Maurice Pouncey, Mike Webster and Jon Kolb (moved to LT after rookie season.)

    Are you kidding me? The Steelers did not get their RT they wanted in the draft, so they had to settle on a LT.

    Dan Moore vs The Rookie in 2024 for round 2.

    Dan Moore had to be doing a happy Dance when Latham, Mims and Fuaga all went off the board before the Steelers were on the clock at #20.

    They took a left tackle that protected a left handed quarterback, so it should be a much easier transition for Fautanu to move to the right side, and protect a right handed QB.

    Well, if you want to match it up, Moore Jr will lose this time to Jones for LT. And I'll put my money on Fauntanu beating him out at RT. Fautanu has the athleticism to flip to the right side if needed.

    Dan Moore cannot play Right Tackle (somehow) anyways. Did so at Texas A&M... but cannot do so anymore. Regardless, I wouldn't be surprised if the Steelers elected to trade him along with a pick in the draft.

    You do know that Fautanu has never played RT; someone here said he had 2 snaps at RT. This link shows In his 5 years in college he is listed as only playing LG and LT.

    Based (what the kiddos say these days) but true.


    Fathers are important. Never underestimate the teaching capacity of one.

    Broderick only play Right Tackle during practice at Georgia. Started as such last season and did relatively okay. Troy Fautanu stated during his Introductory Press Conference that he and Roger Rosengarten would play multiple spots during practice at UW.


    Besides, Troy's technical prowess and athleticism will allow him to make the transition.
