Not sure about the Braden Smith at right tackle instead of guard but the line looks strong there. I hope to hell we win it all this year because it will hurt losing an entire starting line.

Darius James was a liability in pass blocking last year. Hope he has improved.

So when this doesnt happen, can we once and for all confirm that Jay Tate has zero insider info and should be ignored?

Taking Golson and Smith out of the positions where they are most successful seems like a really foolish choice.

Did he not say this a couple days ago? There have multiple other reporters who have reported differently. I'm not saying it won't happen, but it doesn't sound like that is the leading opinion right now.

I think the biggest question mark at the moment is LT. Braden Smith is an elite guard, and an above average tackle, but we are short at options at tackle.
It seems that we are really push Prince Tega to earn the LT spot because that would put everyone else at their more natural position. Darius James is a much better RT than LT and we are loaded with other guard options. But if Tega can't win the LT spot I think James is the only other person that can fit there.
In regards to Tate I don't think he has any idea what he's talking about.

This, with Bell, Harrell pushing at LG, and Dunn ready at C if needed.
Chex: Yes on Jay Tate!!

I'm worried about our tackles in a more pass heavy offense. Not sure we have the guys to go against the better edge rushers.

tega is going to be a starter. He has been man handling everyone.

I hope so. I love Braden Smith at guard, but not as much at tackle.

I keep reading that Prince Tega is doing well at LT.

Turn the page or try a different article. I've read stuff about QBs, WRs, and Defense.

Is the old HABOTN crew still around on Tate's new website?

Is the starter at LT in both mock OLs for Hand.
We could actually have the same LT 3 years in a row! He and James/then Ashley on the ends, and we have a buttload of OGs to choose from!
