    i'm not disagreeing with some of what you said but it's obvious we have too many RT players. gilbert is not that good and gets the most help. they won't even put him at LT and to start camp he was our LT for several weeks.

    adams can't play very well on the left. it was even obvious in his short stint there lastnight. he is a decent 3rd LT tackle and may grow into the RT spot.

    embernate can play RT too, if they keep foster. foster needs to lose about 25 lbs. minimum.

    wallace isn't bad as the backup on the interior either. i'd agree to keep velasco. draft a good LT and bring long up to see where he fits and we could have a decent group here.

    there are a few guys that could do well in the 2nd or 3rd round and beyond that could backup both sides as tackles. it doesn't have to be a top 15 guy. i like erving, but beachum has lived up to my thinking about him and will work to get better, thats how he is.

    whimper has played better than expected for us too. i want to give him some props.:cool:
