someone could always slide inside to guard. Could be a good problem to have -- a handful of elite upperclassman OTs.

Yes he is that good. He has Menelik Watson potential. Watson was a Juco OL we recruited he went fairly high in the NFL Draft this year.

Also I think the coaches anticipate G-Rob going pro after next year. They told Blair he could play RT his first year and LT his senior year.

Avery Young can play guard if needed. SHon Coleman will forever be a wildcard due to his medical conditions but he hasn't really proven anything either yet so who knows.

Patrick Miller is still underweight. They have weight targets for him up in the complex. Until he puts on some muscle and bulks up, he will never be elite

Greg Robinson with a solid two years will probably leave if projected top 5 rounds

Honestly though, I don't think Patrick Miller can block his own arteries. I wouldn't mind at all if his arse got replaced.

it's stupid sh*t like this that make me hate this place sometimes. The guy played OT as an undersized TRUE FRESHMAN against the country's top competition. He needed to redshirt but circumstances dictated he play. It's clear he wasn't ready (like 95% of first year OLs).

You're crazy. Watch last years LSU game again. He made some mistakes for sure, but still he was a undersized TFR

Half the team was probably undersized by seasons end. Hopefully Russell can change that quick.

Ignore him. He's one of those pessimists that's not actually pessimistic but tries to be in an attempt to not get his hopes up about things. Deep down he loves his sunshine as much as the next posibarner.

Miller's weight target last time I talked with someone is still another 10 pounds up from where he is. He is having a hard time putting on weight.

Avery Young though is legit and will put up an amazing fight. If it weren't for his injury, miller would have never seen the field

If Young is healthy, he'll pass Miller. He looked good until he got hurt, definitely better than Miller

That particular breed of nega-barner does that to place their tender, tender feeling into deep protection.

Damn, I wish I had this problem...

Definitely. I think Miller was put in a tough place last season but I thought Young looked solid those first 2 games. I want to see a line of Robinson/Diamond/Dismukes/Danzey/Young. But I think Slade will start and there is no telling who will be at LG

The big need is competition. No one should feel like thirty job is secure.
