Chili Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Interesting to see that Bakhtiari, Linsley, Turner and Bulaga are all rested tonight. Taylor on the other hand is playing. That is a MASSIVE clue as to what the management are thinking with regards to the OL. I've always felt his hold on his roster spot was not secure, mainly because he doesn't fit the athletic profile for the OL. If he can't keep hold of the starting gig then his spot on the 53 is in jeopardy. He will be far too costly to keep as a backup and he isn't as versatile as say Jenkins, Madison and McCray. The coaches really need to see if he can fit into the offence otherwise he is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has the 11th largest cap hit and out of the top 11 players he's the only one other than Tramon Williams who as of now is not guaranteed a starting spot. I can totally see Gute cutting the fat should Taylor fail to hold onto his spot especially with younger, cheaper and more versatile linemen available.

Pete Dougherty pointed out that Madison has yet to get snaps above the third string in practice. he may be versatile, but not at a level that beats out anybody at this point. I don't think he has reached the reliable back up level yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathstar Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) Interesting development. For the most Jenkins seemed as-advertised last night - super strong but not great in space. Edited August 9, 2019 by deathstar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's arguably the worst of the starters, and he probably has the last job security. The writing is on the wall already, he's likely gone beyond this year.

Probably but unless he gets overtaken by some of the backups, surely you need to keep him this season. I think most people accept that there is a high probability Bulaga misses time and the consensus is when he does then Turner will shift to RT. In that scenario you want to be comfortable with the guy coming in at RG. You can't build your roster around accounting for injuries but something happening to the line (and Bulaga in particular) is sort of expected. I want to see us going back to drafting OL every year, keep players coming through the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
