    Especially since my understanding is that he (and others in his class) was an N=1 case because the pandemic gave him an extra year of staring experience, so you couldn't even really compare him to other NCAA players who had 5 years as a starter at QB.

    It's done all the time in the football mainly because you try playing who's best at that position. Example: It doesn't matter if say a guy has played LT his whole life if He can't beat out the LT that is already there at the time, but he can beat out the RT, then you put him at right tackle. It's that simple. Your job is to make the best line You can for that year, nothing more, nothing less

    LOL, Was it me, or did I just hear Mike McCarthy refer to Max as TheAnchor???

    Everyone said I was crazy when I kept reading Max's name as Max TheAnchor. I can feel the birth of a new Nickname for Max! :)


    Just put TheAnchor at Right Tackle for the next 15 years and be done with it.

    Heres an idea, play the guys at the position you draft them at so we dont have to watch the ****show we just got with Jones.

    LoL. So You say play a guy over a guy he can't beat out, but don't play him over the guy he can actually beat out???
    Also Jeh1856 gave us both winners. Someone is playing the fence. LoL

    LoL. Fair enough, but I'm not sure if you actually meant that as a complement.

    Does this mean you are also against them moving Gennings Dunker to guard, but you want him out there playing RT with Max?
